QTCPServer & QThread

Cayan

I've started a thread and I can't connect the signals of the server to it.

thread.h
@#include <QtNetwork/QTcpServer>
#include <QThread>

class Thread: public QThread
{
Q_OBJECT

public:
Thread();
void run();

private:
QTcpServer m_server;

private slots:
void onReceiveNewConnection();
};@

thread.cpp
@#include "thread.h"

Thread::Thread()
{
start();
}

void Thread::run()
{
m_server = new QTcpServer();
connect(m_server, SIGNAL(newConnection()), /this,/ SLOT(onReceiveNewConnection()));
m_server->listen(QHostAddress::Any, port);
while(!isFinished())
{
//...
}
}

void Thread::onReceiveNewConnection()
{
qDebug() << "New connection!";
}@

The code never reaches the slot onReceiveNewConnection.
Could anyone help me to solve this out?

You should check the return value of connect, it will indicate false. You are trying to connect to "this" indcating that there you should be a slot called onReceiveConnection in Thread, but it is a slot in Proxy. It is this way at least in your post.

That does not even compile
