QFtp not connecting?

[budda]

having some trouble getting QFtp object to connect...

I have private class members:


QLineEdit *ftpServerLineEdit;
QLineEdit *ftpUserLineEdit;
QLineEdit *ftpPasswordLineEdit;

QFtp *ftp;
QGraphicsView *internet;



but can't get a QPushbuttons connect private slot function to work with this:


void MainWindow::testConnect(){

ftp = new QFtp(this);

QString server = ftpServerLineEdit->text();
QString user = ftpUserLineEdit->text();
QString password = ftpPasswordLineEdit->text();

QUrl url(server);

if (!url.isValid() || url.scheme().toLower != QLatinString("ftp")){
ftp->connectToHost(server,21);
ftp->login(user, password);

if (ftp->state() == QFtp::LoggedIn){
internet->setStyleSheet(QString("background: url(:/images/Online.png);"));
}
else{
internet->setStyleSheet(QString("background: url(:/images/Offline.png);"));
}
}

} //end member function



this never goes through the last if when I know that the hostname, username, & password are correct... can anyone help me with this? I'm sifting through the ftp example.... Is this code not getting a response from the server? therefore, just going to the last if, and then it's always false?

Solved it... forgot to connect the commandFinished(int,bool) SIGNAL to the ftp instance of QFtp... then I did the test with the ftp->state() == QFtp::LoggedIn in the SLOT funtion
