QTcpSocket 'connected()' signal issue

[Vladimir_]

Hello,

I wanted to do an action when an incoming connection to the server is established from a client.

i wrote this line :

connect(socket,SIGNAL(connected()), this, SLOT(connected()));

while "socket" is is a pointer to QTcpSocket :

socket = new QTcpSocket;

But the statement doesn't invoke te SLOT "connected()" .

but when I write the following code:

connect(socket,SIGNAL(disconnected()), this, SLOT(connected()));

The SLOT "connected()" will be called when the Client is exited.

The issue:
I need to invoke the SLOT when an incoming connection established from a client.

Thanks.

There is some inconsistency in your posting:

This sounds like you are writing server code.



while "socket" is is a pointer to QTcpSocket :

socket = new QTcpSocket;

while this is clearly client code.

For a client the connect should work, i.e. the slot should be invoked when the socket establishes a connection to the server.
For a server, the client is already connected (it has connected to the server after all), so the socket is already in "connection established" state.

Cheers,

So what's the SIGNAL i have to make to get the incoming connection ?? "using QTcpServer"

QTcpServer... the answer is in the first few sentences of the detailed description. Try the Fortune Server Example, also linked from the detailed description section, for a complete worked example.
