Class member reference

Thanks to the folks who have already helped me along with this, but I am still having a little trouble referencing class members.

Here's the relevant part of the header:

Code:

---

class QSqlTableModel;
   class QTableView;
 
private:
   QSqlTableModel *model;
   QTableView *view;

---

And part of the cpp:

Code:

---

model = new QSqlTableModel();
      view = new QTableView();
 
      QSqlTableModel *model = new QSqlTableModel();
      model->setTable("log");
      model->select();
 
      QTableView *view = new QTableView;
      view->setModel(model);
      view->setMinimumSize(1200,100);
      view->move(35,80);
      view->setSortingEnabled(TRUE);
      QHeaderView *header = view->horizontalHeader();
      header->setMovable(TRUE);
      view->show();

---

All of that works fine. Problem comes when I try to use model-> or view->
in a local function. No errors, but no results. Like trying to set the view title or apply a filter to the model. Both of these work fine if the code for them is right after the code shown above, but when in a local function like this, they have no effect.

Code:

---

checkPrefs();
 
void MainWindow::checkPrefs() {
      view->setWindowTitle("My Log");
      MainWindow::model->setFilter("call = 'k0zav'");
}

---

And if I check the model assigned to the view in the checkPrefs code, it comes back empty.

So, what am I doing wrong here?

You have local variables that shadow the ones declared in the class.

Thanks for the reply. I understand what you are saying, conceptually, but not sure where. Do you mean lines 1 and 2 of the first lines in cpp?
Without those, it crashes when checkPrefs is called.
So I'm confused.

Ok Wysota - I got it now.
Just removed the *model and *view lines and it is working perfectly.
Thanks for your help!
