No matching signal for ...[SOLVED]
-
in the mainwindow constructor:
@ connect( ui->projectsTabWidget,SIGNAL(tabCloseRequested(int)),this,SLOT(on_close_tab(int)));
@in the mainwindow header file:
@void on_close_tab(int);@in the mainwindow .cpp
@void MainWindow::on_close_tab(int i)
{
qDebug()<<"close requested....";
}@the thing is it works fine,whenever the data changes, the slot excutes,but i still get this :
QMetaObject::connectSlotsByName: No matching signal for on_close_tab(int)
and i'm just wondering why ,or maybe i'm doing it wrong -
Hi,
Somewhere there's a call to "connectSlotsByName":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qmetaobject.html#connectSlotsByName and your slot doesn't follow the signature style to be used with connectSlotsByName
-
hi
the thing is my code doesn't contain this function at all "connectSlotsByName" ,and i never used such a function,
maybe "connect" is calling it or the IDE is calling it somewhere else
but the code is running fine,so is there anything i should be concerned about -
AFAIK connectSlotsByName is probably introduced through moc.
I am using in one of my applications the feature, but do not call connectSlotsByName IIRC.
It could be triggered in your case by the name of the slot (presumably "on_" starts are the triggers). Change the slot to something else and see, if the warning disappears.

hi thanks for your replies
@koahing,yes when i delete "on_" the warnning disapears -
@karim24 thanks for the topic! It helps me as well. I removed the on_* from the beggining of the signals and slots names and the warnings disappear. Cheers.
