QObject::connect (fast)

**baray98** · 21st February 2008, 23:01

I have a widget (QlineEdits) thats is used to update a string member of my struct, the trigger is the editingFinished() signal from the QLineEdit.

from the snippet below

Qt Code:

Switch view

myclass::updateString(void) // connected to the editingFinished()
{
  myStruct.name /* which is a QString*/ = myLineEdit->text();
}
 
myclass::saveToFile(void)
{
  finalStruct = myStruct;
 
  save(finalStruct); // found that my finalStruct has the old data of myStruct
}

myclass::updateString(void) // connected to the editingFinished()
{
  myStruct.name /* which is a QString*/ = myLineEdit->text();
}

myclass::saveToFile(void)
{
  finalStruct = myStruct;

  save(finalStruct); // found that my finalStruct has the old data of myStruct
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode

I run in debugging mode and found that updateString was performed after saveToFile, that is when i type in line edit then pressed save . My hunch is that the updateString connection was qued or delayed somehow, Now my question is how can i make a connection givine a the highest priority?
