4. Errors after include

Errors after include


  • Hello Everybody,

    I'm completly blocked at the moment :-(
    Each time I try to include my header file "communicator.h" to the header "property.h" I get the strange error below. It seams to have no relationship to my include at all.

    Error while building/deploying project SaphirCube (kit: Desktop Qt 5.0.1 GCC 64bit)
    When executing step 'Make' @

    This is the included file:
    @#ifndef COMMUNICATOR_H
    #define COMMUNICATOR_H

    #include <QObject>
    #include <QString>
    #include <QList>
    #include <qextserialport.h>
    #include "QsLog.h"
    #include "command.h"

    class Communicator : public QObject
    {
    Q_OBJECT
    public:
    explicit Communicator(QObject parent = 0);
    void ExecuteCommand(Command     cmd);

    signals:
    void got_answer(QByteArray Data);
    void got_data(QByteArray Data);

    public slots:
    void SetDevicePath(QString path);

    private slots:
    void Read();

    private:
    QextSerialPort* port;
    bool Read_busy;
    QByteArray Read_incomming;
    QList<Command*> CommandQueue;
    int RunningNr;
    void RunNext();
    QByteArray Header;
    };

    #endif // COMMUNICATOR_H
    @

    and the file where I want to include:
    @#ifndef PROPERTY_H
    #define PROPERTY_H

    #include <QWidget>
    #include <QHBoxLayout>
    #include <QLabel>
    #include <QPushButton>
    #include "command.h"
    #include "communicator.h" <-- Problems start as soon this line is inserted.

    class Property : public QWidget
    {
    Q_OBJECT
    public:
    explicit Property(QWidget *parent = 0);
    explicit Property(QString Name, QWidget parent = 0);
    void SetName(QString Name);
    void SetRegister(int Reg);
    void SetCommunicator(Communicator     com);

    public slots:
    virtual void Update() = 0;

    protected:
    QHBoxLayout* TopLayout;
    QPushButton* btnName;
    int Register;
    Communicator* com;

    signals:
    void Changed(char*, int lenght, char address);

    private:
    void Init();

    };

    #endif // PROPERTY_H
    @

    The file "communicator.h" has been included into the main file already without problems.

    Does somebody have a Idea what that could be or a way to find the source of this bug?
    Thank you a lot.
    Greetings

  • Problem Solved!

    Instead of including the file , I made a forward declaration.
    (Ok, I still have no Idea why, but it works now ;-) )

    Thanks

  • hmmmm... if I had to make an educated guess I would say there is a perhaps a subtle syntax issue.

    I would say its worth digging a bit deeper to find the issue so that it does not byte you in your ass later! :o

    I would try including your header with everything commented out (even the #includes), and then add parts of it back bit by bit until you see your issue again...

    Honestly, if there is a "silly little error" in there it could really be a problem later and you might not know where to look :(
