QGroupBox derived class does not inherit setParent(QObject* parent);

[Carlos Delgado]

So I have this class:

class Profile : public QGroupBox

And I see that QGroupBox inherits from QWidget, which inherits from QObject, which has the method:

void setParent(QObject* parent);

But then I try to access this inherited method in another method of my MainWindow class:

void MainWindow::add_profile(const Profile* profile)
{
    profile->setParent(ui->scrollAreaWidgetContents_2);
    //          ^^^    error here: no matching member function for call to 'setParent'
    // stuff
}

Any suggestions?

Thx.

setParent() is not a const function so don't pass a const pointer.
