QListIterator constructor parameter conversion issue

kenbot

I have a QList<LogParser*> logParsers where LogParser is a class I defined.

When I try to create a QListIterator<LogParser*> iterator(logParsers), the compiler complains

'QListIterator<T>::QListIterator(const QList<T> &)' : cannot convert parameter 1 from 'QList<T>' to 'const QList<T> &'

What am I doing wrong?

Can you paste a snippet of relevant code?

kenbot

Sure, but it's not very informative.

@QListIterator<LogParser*> iterator(logParsers);
while(iterator.hasNext()) {
iterator.next()->start();
}@

Including the logParsers declaration? :)

kenbot

That's in the header file:
@QList<LogParser*> logParsers;@

and the constructor for this class has this bit to populate logParsers:
@for(int i = 0; i < deviceCount; ++i) {
logParsers.append(new LogParser(i));
connect( logParsers[i], SIGNAL(deviceNotOpen()), SLOT(deviceNotOpen()));
connect( logParsers[i], SIGNAL(setupComplete()), SLOT(startTimer()));
}@

Hi kenbrot,

this code perfectly compiles:

@
class LogParser
{
public:
int i;
int j;
QList<int> m;
void start() {}
};

int main(int argc, char argv[])
{
QList<LogParser> logParsers;

QListIterator<LogParser*> iterator(logParsers);
while(iterator.hasNext()) {
     iterator.next()->start();
}

return 0;

}
@

Perhaps LogParser is only predefined?
