Signal for QSerialPort is not shown on list...

[bladekel]

Hello to all,

I have an interesting problem.
I'm using QtCreator 4.8.0, Qt 5.12.0 , language is C++, and OS is windows7.

I trying to connect a signal to catch an information comes from serial device.

The syntax is ;
QObject::connect(&arduino,SIGNAL(readyRead()),this,SLOT(serial_received()));

The signal is working and catching the data... No problem on working...

But.... I couldnt see the readyRead signal on the list while I'm writing the code...

What is the problem ?

@bladekel Use the new Qt5 connect syntax :-)

@bladekel I agree with @jsulm you should use the Qt5 Syntax

but your problem is probably the lower case o in QObject

@J.Hilk
I see.. But I wrote uppercase "o" while taking screenshot... I know it has to be QObject...
Anyway thanks...

Hi
Did you recently upgraded to 4.8 ?

I found it....
Here is the new syntax...

                connect(&arduino,&QIODevice::readyRead,this,&MainWindow::serial_received);
