Can't use parameter *event

[Engelard]

Hi everyone. Here is a problem, for some reason(i'm 2 days trying to figure it out) i can't use parameter of reimplemented function(in other projects i remember i could).

Function:

void mousePressEvent(QMouseEvent *event);

My Custom class which simply create graphicsView and stuff in it:

class myGview : public QGraphicsView

And when i, in body of that function trying use event - nothing happens. I mean normaly, it would be possible to use arrow member selector after i typing out "event" but i press .dot, nothing happens, it do not transform in to -> as any pointer objects do.

It should work, and i need to use it like this:

event->button()

Would be thankful of any help!

Does it compile if you manually type the '->' and you call a valid member function? Did you include the QMouseEvent header?

#include <QMouseEvent>

Well that's a shame.

Hi,

@Engelard, don't worry, it can't happen to everybody. Furthermore, that mistake of yours might help somebody else in the future.

Just mark the thread as solved and keep on hacking :)
