Getting text values from dynamically created Qline edits in Qt c++

[Lasith]

I have created a set of Qline edits successfully and assigned each line edit an Object name but unfortunately when I try to read and get them into a QStringList I get an error stating

"Textbox was not declared in this scope"

my code is as follows!

for(int i=0;i<5;i++){
f1 = new QFrame();
f2 = new QFrame();
f3 = new QFrame();

a= new QLabel(f1);
b=new QLineEdit(f2);
c=new QLineEdit(f3);

QString oName= QString::number(i);
b->setObjectName("Textbox"+oName);

ui->verticalLayout->addWidget(f1);
ui->verticalLayout_2->addWidget(f2);
ui->verticalLayout_3->addWidget(f3);

a->setText(newList[i]);

}

and from the button click event I won't to get each text in the dynamically created QLine edits!

void NewOrders::on_pushButton_2_clicked()
{

for(int i=0;i<getList.size();i++){
QString oName= QString::number(i);
getList<<(ui->("Textbox"+oName)->text());
}
}

Here getlist and newlist are QStirngLists are already defined as public! How can I correct this?

@Lasith said in Getting text values from dynamically created Qline edits in Qt c++:

getList<<(ui->("Textbox"+oName)->text());

That part is wrong. The objectName property is a property of a C++ object. It is not name of the C++ variable, and not part of ui.

In order to get a list of QObjects with certain objectName, you should use findChild<>() method, or findChildren<>().

Side note: in each step of your first for loop, you create 3 new QLineEdits, but you only change the objectName of one of them (b). The rest remains unnamed.
