How to connect qml button to c++ function

zhmh

I want the data to be written to a text file if the qml button is clicked, I do this but it does not work properly, Is there another simple way?
main .cpp:

QQmlApplicationEngine qmlengine;

   const QUrl url(QStringLiteral("qrc:/main.qml"));
   QObject::connect(&qmlengine, &QQmlApplicationEngine::objectCreated,
                    &app, [url](QObject *obj, const QUrl &objUrl) {
       if (!obj && url == objUrl)
           QCoreApplication::exit(-1);
   }, Qt::QueuedConnection);



   TestClass test();


   qmlengine.rootContext()->setContextProperty("TestClass",&test);
   qmlengine.load(url);

main.qml:

Label {
                   id: label1
                   x: 264
                   text: qsTr("Atten:")
               }

               SpinBox {
                   id: atten
                   x: 354
                   value: TestClass.atten()
               }

               Button {
                   id: write
                   text: qsTr("Write")
                   onClicked: TestClass.writeFlag()

               }

TestClass :

public:
    explicit TestClass(QObject *parent = nullptr);

    int  writeNewRecord(QString value1){//open file and write in it};

public slots:
   void atten(){ //....}
   void valueChanged( double getData) { 
      //doing some process on getData

      if(writeFlag)  {                  //here is my problem and always return true
         writeNewRecord(QString::number(getData));
         wFlag=false;
}
};
 bool writeFlag(){
       wFlag =true;
       return wFlag;
};

private:
  bool wFlag =false;

I do this but it does not work properly

How does it fail? Is writeFlag() not called?

I guess what you mean to ask about is how to make sure atten spin box changes TestClass value when it's value is changed, right? There are many ways to do it, the easiest is to do this in QML:

onValueChanged: TestClass.valueChanged(value)

Always write data in the file without pressing the button

No I want the data to be written to a text file if the qml button is clicked and data is provided from valueChanged function

if(writeFlag) {

Then this should be:

if(wFlag)  {

What zhmh is saying is you have a typo. You put the name of the function where you should have put the variable.

I'm sure you know this, but just in case.
