[solved]url recognition in qt

[daljit97]

Hello, I'm working with the QUrl class. My problem is that I have to trigger an action if the recognize a specific url.
Example:
@void MyClass::trigger(QUrl*url)
{
if(url = "http://myurl.com)
myapp.load()
}@
But It doesn't work.

Hi,

You cannot compare whole QUrl class to string, but you can use following comparison.
If you would like to have just whole URL you could use "QUrl:toString":http://doc.qt.digia.com/stable/qurl.html#toString
If you are interested only in domain you could use "QUrl:host":http://doc.qt.digia.com/stable/qurl.html#host

Hope it help.

Your code is syntactically incorrect:
@ void MyClass::trigger(QUrl*url)
{
if(url == "http://myurl.com")
myapp.load();
}
@

Besides, if you are trying to load any gui component, it is only possibly through mainwindow class. Non-gui classes can't display any gui components. You need to send a signal to main gui class to display any gui component.

Thanks QUrl::toString works great!

Comparing pointer with a string is just sick, bro (sintatically correct and can even return true though).

That was only an example to explain my problem, I know that a QUrl can't be a boolean.
