Passing a vector as function argument

SOrton

Apologies if this is the wrong place but;
When defining a QVecotr with:

QVector<double> x(temp),y(temp);

How can I place this into a functions paramater definition?:

void MainWindow::plotGraph(int selectedIndex, QVector<double> x,y)

As the x,y is causing a problem due to the comma.

Because you don't assign a type for y - in a function call you can't use the shortcut as for a definition and have to properly define all parameters.

@SOrton
void MainWindow::plotGraph(int selectedIndex, QVector<double> x, QVector<double>y);

preferably
void MainWindow::plotGraph(int selectedIndex, const QVector<double> &x, const QVector<double> &y);

Ok First thing. You need to create a "using" or "typedef" declaration for your container, as an alias when refering to the type later in your code

using MY_VEC = QVector<double>;

MY_VEC v1(27U);
MY_VEC v2 = { 0.0, 1.0, 37.555 };
void someFunction(MY_VEC& v) { v.clear(); }
someFunction(v2);

Finally, don't put multiple variable declarations on the same line. It's considered bad form by most modern coding standards.
