KColorCombo problem

[Maxilys]

Hi there,

I'm trying to use KColorCombo. Everything works except that I can't retrieve the selected color. Any attempt to use KColorCombo::color() leads to a failure during compile.



serenity.cpp:(.text+0x138d1): undefined reference to `KColorCombo::color() const'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status


The include is there. What else can I do and that I don't know? :confused:

(My config: KDE 3.5.2)

Could you show a snippet of the code where you call KColorCombo::color() method? Unless you have subclassed KColorCombo, the syntax KColorCombo::color() is wrong. It's not a static method. You should be calling it through the instance, eg. something like combo->color().

Are you sure that you link your application with all required libraries?

The code snippet won't tell much since I don't actually want to use a KColorCombo but only access it for my style plugin. Here's what I do in the event filter:



if ( (::qt_cast<QComboBox*>(obj)) && (obj->inherits("KColorCombo"))
&& (ev->type() == QEvent::Paint) )
{
KColorCombo* combo = static_cast<KColorCombo*>(obj);
bool enabled = combo->isEnabled();
bool mouseOver = combo->hasMouse();
QColorGroup cg = combo->colorGroup();
QColor innerColor = combo->color(); // <-Splash!
//
// etc...
}


As for linking the necessary libs, I think I do. I already managed to style the very KDE specific widgets KKeyButton and KColorButton. I don't think KColorCombo has special needs. Am I wrong?

undefined reference
maybe some library is not used when linking

Show us the compilation line which fails (especially the list of libraries it tries to link with).

Thanks but it's too late. I already solved the problem. The kdeui library wasn't linked because of a bad bad makefile. :o
