Moc not invoked

[GrahamL]

Hi

If I declare a class in a cpp file -
@
#include <QObject>

class NewTest : public QObject
{
Q_OBJECT

private slots:
void s1();
};

void NewTest::s1()
{

}

#include "NewTest.moc"
@

The moc compiler is not invoked
However, if I declare a constructor for NewTest it is

Can anyone explain why this is?

I am writing some unit tests and do not need the constructor.

Once the moc has been invoked I can remove the constructor and then everything works as expected

Thanks

Hi,

Qt Objects needs a constructor where you declare a parent object;

Anyway I suggest to follow the rules:

[C++] Declare classes in .H files

[Qt] If you inherits from QObject and want use Q_OBJECT macro, declare at least a constructor that accept a QObject*

If you're writing QTestLib unit tests, your code is correct but you missed to insert
@
QTEST_MAIN(NewTest)
@

before include moc file
