Problem in call class in mainwindoe.cpp

[MhM93]

Hi.
I create a program for embedded ARM system. It reads data from serial port and save it in database.
I create 2 classes ( one for data base and the other for serial port).
The database classes is created database and tables if not exist and then will insert update data.
Serial port classes is open port and config port and read data from port and close the port.
When I make the classes they do not work.
the database error show this message :

[root@FriendlyARM /fgit]# ./TimeAttandent2 -qws -font 12
QSqlQuery::exec: database not open
QSqlQuery::exec: database not open

and the readcard function does not work. (But when I put this code in mainwindow.cpp it worked )
this is my database class : (create connection and create tables)

#ifndef DB_H
#define DB_H
#include "QtSql/qsql.h"
#include "QtSql/qsqldatabase.h"
#include "QtSql/qsqlquery.h"
#include "QtSql/qsqltablemodel.h"
#include <QtCore/QDateTime>
#include <QVariant>   //=>query.value()
#include <QSqlRecord>
#include <QSqlError>
#include <csignal>
#include <QDateTime>
class DB
{
public:
    QSqlDatabase daba;
    QString msg;
    QSqlQuery q;
    bool success;
    //----------------
public:
    DB();
    ~DB();
};
#endif // DB_H

And this is DB.cpp:

#include "db.h"
DB::DB()
{
    daba = QSqlDatabase::addDatabase("QSQLITE");//not dbConnection
    QString path = "DataBase";
    daba.setDatabaseName(path);
    if(!daba.open())
    {
        msg=("Error to open database");
    }
    else
    {
        msg="The Database is open sucessfully";
        //create the tables if not created.
        q.exec("create table IF NOT EXISTS Person("
               "name varchar(20),"
               "pid  varchar(20),"
               "pic varchar(100),"
               "password varchar(20),"
               "boss varchar(10));");

        //boos if the user is manager
        q.exec("create table IF NOT EXISTS IO(record int primary key,"
               "cf varchar(20) ,"
               "pid varchar(20), "
               "DateTime varchar(50));");
    }
}
DB::~DB()
{
    daba.close();
}

I read data from serial port and save them in data base.And this is my serial port class :

#ifndef PORTSERIAL_H
#define PORTSERIAL_H

#include <stdio.h>   /* Standard input/output definitions */
#include <unistd.h>  /* UNIX standard function definitions */
#include <fcntl.h>   /* File control definitions */

#include <QDateTime>
#define MAXDATASIZE 100

class PortSerial
{
public :
    int fd;
    int status;
    char buf2[MAXDATASIZE];
    QString output;
public:
    PortSerial();
    ~PortSerial();
    int openport();
    int configport();
    void closeport();
    void readcard(QString &output);
};

#endif // PORTSERIAL_H

this is serial port cpp:

Hi,

There's no code related to writing anything in the database so there's no real way to tell why the connection is closed.

By the way, why not use QSerialPort ?

[MhM93]

@SGaist : Thanks for reply.

There's no code related to writing anything in the database so there's no real way to tell why the connection is closed.

---

In DB.cpp in constructor class ( DB() ) , I open the database and create table. (after tested the project I saw the error that say can not open the database. I decide solve the problem at first then will write other code to update and inset)

By the way, why not use QSerialPort ?

For Qserial port in documentation wrote Since: Qt 5.1. I have qt-4.8. That was not worked.

My problem is : I call my functions but they do not worked.

Why did you erase your original post ?

The qtserialport module can be build with Qt 4.8, there's a branch for it.

Without seeing your code there's no way to tell why it doesn't work. Also "doesn't work" doesn't tell much about what is happening (or not happening for that matter). You should explain what you expect to have and what you get.

For your database problem, at some point it's either never opened or closed before you try to write something in it. Again without seeing the related code, there's no way to help you.

@SGaist :

Yes, you say right. I am finding this resource to use qserialport. :[https://wiki.qt.io/Qt_Serial_Port]
In this resource says :
To use the library, add serialport to the *.pro file of your project:
Qt4

CONFIG += serialport

Qt5

QT += serialport

but when I added CONFIG += serialport to my .pro file , these codes has error again :

…
#include <QSerialPort>
#include <QSerialPortInfo>
…

My problem solved and it has a silly mistake on serialport class.
The database class is worked but that error occurred because I should define query in each function after opening database. [http://www.qtcentre.org/archive/index.php/t-25184.html] This post solved my problem.

[SGaist]

You're using Qt 4.8.7 so you have to compile/install it before you can use it. It's described in the Getting the source code part.

[SGaist]

As for the database part, re-opening the database each time is not necessarily the cleaner option since you are using a SQLite database. Unless you're in an environment that's highly hostile to your database connection, you should set it up when starting the application and only close it at the end. Thus you'll be using the default connection without the need to re-open the database each time you want to do a query.

Really thanks my friend. For qserial port and advice for opening database.
Thanks.thanks.
