Expected class name error

[tomy]

Hi all,

This is the .h file of a program. I face the following error but whatever I look I can't find out why Qt creator's compiler shows that error! Would you please have a look at it?

C:\Users\ME\Documents\Qt\Sort\sortdialog.h:8: error: expected class-name before '{' token
{
^
The .h file:

#ifndef SORTDIALOG_H
#define SORTDIALOG_H

#include <QDialog>
#include "ui_sortdialog.h"

class SortDialog : public QDialog, public Ui::SortDialog
{
    Q_OBJECT

public:
    SortDialog(QWidget* parent = 0);
    void setColumnRange(QChar first, QChar last);
};

#endif // SORTDIALOG_H

What do you mean by "form's (top-level widget's)" please?

This is what I mean. The first object's name is how the class will be called. In my case it's the "inventive" MainWindow, thus the generated class will be Ui::MainWindow. Make sure your top level widget (the one that's on top of everything else) is called SortDialog.

Kind regards.

Syntax is correct, it probably complains about Ui::SortDialog. Perhaps your form isn't called SortDialog? Go in the designer and make sure the form's (top-level widget's) name is matching the class name you're using.

This is my form:

What do you mean by "form's (top-level widget's)" please?

I changed the Form's objectname to SortDialog and the bug fixed!
Thanks.
