Retrieving the text from QLineEdit

[Arnon]

I want to retrieve the entered text from QLineEdit and put it into a variable
QString name;
My question is what is the proper code to perform this action?

You use the "text" method.
@QString name = ui->lineEdit->text();@

Refer to the QLineEdit documentation to see its members and information:
http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/qlineedit.html

You can retrieve the input with "text()":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/qlineedit.html#text-prop

However, you might to checkout the "tutorials and examples":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/qtexamplesandtutorials.html for more details on the different ways to use QLineEdit
