subclassing QWidget

Hello,

it should be really easy but something just doesn't work and i can't find the problem.

I try to create my own Widget by subclassing QWidget.

For testing i have now removed every code so that the new Widget looks like this:

Code:

---

#ifndef SIGNALWIDGET
#define SIGNALWIDGET
 
#include <QtGui>
#include <QWidget>
 
class SignalWidget : public QWidget
 {
     Q_OBJECT
 
 public:
     SignalWidget(QWidget *parent = 0);
 };
 
 #endif

---

and

Code:

---

#include "signalwidget.h"
 
 
SignalWidget::SignalWidget(QWidget *parent)
    : QWidget(parent)
{
}

---

i would say that there is nothing which could be wrong.

If i now try to create a instance of this widget in my main application with " SignalWidget sw = new SignalWidget();" i get this error message:

/usr/include/qt4/QtGui/qwidget.h: In copy constructor ‘SignalWidget::SignalWidget(const SignalWidget&)’:

Does someone has an idea what's wrong?

Thanks!

Code:

---

SignalWidget *sw = new SignalWidget();

Notice the *. and clean up your directory and rerun qmake and make. Maybe it is caused by old object files.

EDIT: and without Q_OBJECT your example code will work.
EDIT2: Its definitely to late for me! Is a moc-file generated? Sometimes it comes to problems if all is one file...

Thanks! The missing "*" solved all problems!

Damn, i just shouldn't sit that long in front of the computer...
