[SOLVED] 'source' was not declared in this scope

[iacoposk8]

hello everyone! I'm building a class to facilitate me in the use of XML.
this->type and this->files are properly valorized, but compiling read the following error:
[code]
/home/mezzo/Qt/test/mainwindow.cpp:34: error: 'source' was not declared in this scope
QXmlStreamReader xml(source);
^
[/code]
I am new to the C ++, but in this case I understand the error but do not know how to solve it. you have ideas?
thank you.

[code]
if(this->type==1){
QFile* source=this->file;
}
if(this->type==0){
QString source=this->code;
}
QXmlStreamReader xml(source);
[/code]

Hi,

Are you comming from python ?

From the top of my head:

@
QXmlStreamReader xml;
if(this->type==1){
xml.setDevice(this->file);
}
if(this->type==0){
xml.addData(this->code);
}
@

Hope it helps

You're welcome !

I'd recommend getting a good book about C++, it'll save you some headaches.
