Error Connecting timer to slot <RESOLVED>

[Bear35645]

I am trying to connect to a slot with a timer. The line where I attempt to make the connection is:
connect(m_trigPullTimer, SIGNAL(timeout()), this, SLOT(updateFiringReload()));

In the header file I have the following:
private slots:
void updateFiringReload();

When I run the program and it hits the connect line I get the following error.
QObject::connect: No such slot QWidget::updateFiringReload()

Where am I going wrong?

is updateFiringReload defined in "this" class??

seems that this is a QWidget

@Bear35645 Hi, you created the class definition with the according slots: line in the same class and inserted the Q_OBJECT macro?
Example:

#ifndef __main_hpp
#define __main_hpp

#include <QDebug>
#include <QTimer>
#include <QCoreApplication>

class TimerTest : public QObject {
  Q_OBJECT

  public:
    TimerTest();
  
  private:
    QTimer *t;

  public slots:
    void updateFiringReload();
};

#endif

and the implementation:

#include "main.hpp"

int main( int argc, char *argv[] ) {
  QCoreApplication app(argc, argv);
  TimerTest t;
  return app.exec();
}

TimerTest::TimerTest() {
  t = new QTimer(this);
  connect( t, SIGNAL(timeout()), this, SLOT(updateFiringReload()) );

  t->start(1000);
}

void TimerTest::updateFiringReload() {
  qDebug() << "Test";
}

@mcosta Yes it is defined in the class. The class is derived from QWidget.

@simow I did forget the Q_OBJECT macro. However now when I attempt to compile I am getting an error C:\Users\kbrooks\Work\MAST\r2coverlays.cpp:12: error: undefined reference to `vtable for R2COverlays' on my constructor.

@Bear35645 One complete rebuild, please using make -B.
