Wrong QProcess Behavior

MrOplus

hi , i'm new to QT
i have an application with runs some simple bash files .
now when i run the application from the QTCreator everything works fine and i can read the QProcess output but when i open application directly i can't read the QProcess output and output is always "" .
here is my code :

        QProcess proc ;
        proc.start(QCoreApplication::applicationDirPath() + "/check.sh");
        proc.waitForFinished();
        QString output = QString(proc.readAll());
        qDebug() << output ;

i'm using QT 5.7 on OSX Platform
note :
*** when i run my application via terminal it works fine ***

karti gesar

use readAllStandardOutput() to read the output

Try
/* proc.waitForFinished(-1);*/
the above line wait untill the process gets finished.

Refer this link
http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qprocess.html#waitForFinished

@karti-gesar said in Wrong QProcess Behavior:

use readAllStandardOutput() to read the output

Hi,
Yes, and use readAllStandardError()to get the error messages.
Maybe the program did not run because of a wrong path.

ok when i run the application directly QCoreApplication::applicationDirPath() returns / as the dir but when i run the app via terminal it's the real application path !! is it a bug ?!

Hi,

How exactly are you calling your application ?
Are you building an app bundle ?
