[ecmanja]

hello im doing a tcp program in qt i want to send content of textedit on client side to textedit on server side for this i used
write(ui->textedit->settext("hello"));
but this giving a error like this
E:\Qt_files\cust_send\secdialog.cpp:23: error: invalid use of void expression
sendsocket->write(ui->textEdit->setText("hello"));

Hello ecmanja,

You are doing 2 tasks at the same time writing string on socket as well as setting text on textEdit .
First of all set the text in textEdit after that take a QString variable that will hold the entire text of textEdit using QString toPlainText () const and then pass this variable to write() function.

Hope it will work..
