Formatting Numbers
-
[quote author="Andre" date="1333447407"]I guess that this is getting in your way: [quote] If fillChar is '0' (the number 0, ASCII 48), the locale's zero is used. [/quote] (from the [[doc:QString]] documentation) I am wondering, why you are not using QTime to format your time: @ QTime t(hours, minutes, seconds); ui->chronoDisplay->setText(QTime::toString("h:mm::ss")); @ [/quote]
Just because I didn't know this possibility... Now that I know it I'm going to try to use it!
Thank you for the advice!

Hi Andre,
I've followed your advice but I've got the same result.
I had forgotten to say that I want this application to run under symbian 3 OS. Could be this the problems?
-
Could be. Could you check the ouput of QLocale::systemLocale().zeroDigit() ?
If that is a space, then I guess you have your culprit...
-
I don't think so because either the techniques I've followed, have given me back a string filled with "0", the problem is that the number of 0 returned are more than expected!
Despite the fact I think the problem is different, how can I set the zeroDigit() property to be sure that it returns a '0'?
-
You can't set that value from inside Qt. It is set by the system. However, could you show us what your output is now then? I was under the impression from your previous posts that you did not get enough 0's. Now, you tell us, you get too many. So how does your output look?
-
I would like to show you an image which shows the output I'm receiving on the device simulator, but how can I link this image?
-
Just put the image on some public place (I use my public DropBox folder), and you can link it into your message using the small picture icon in the bar above the editor window.
-
Ok, this is the result I'm gettim from the simulator after the code is processed.

[quote author="Andre" date="1333447407"]@ QTime t(hours, minutes, seconds); ui->chronoDisplay->setText(QTime::toString("h:mm::ss")); @ [/quote]
Why this code worked just one time and now it doesn't work again?
This is the error I'm receiving when I try to use the code above
C:\Documents and Settings\tlp31\Documenti\C++_Project\chrono-build-simulator..\chrono\mainwindow.cpp:120: error: cannot call member function 'QString QTime::toString(const QString&) const' without object
and this is the code:
@ QTime t(hours, minutes, seconds);
ui->chronoDisplay->setText(QTime::toString("h:mm::ss"));@ -
You need to call t::toString, not QTime::toString in your second line. The error message describes that quite clearly, I think.
Note: I now see that I wrote it wrong in my example. My apologies.
-
I'm sorry but it still doesn't work. The compiler says: [..] 121: error: 't' is not a class or namespace
How I have to initialize a QTime class properly?
-
@
QTime time(hours, minutes, seconds);
ui->chronoDisplay->setText(time.toString("h:mm::ss"));
@
This should work. -
Yes it works, and with this modification also the UI is working properly.
Thank you Andre for your support in this matter.
