Weird QTextEdit error

[MarkoSan]

I've added some QTextEdit to a QWidget and I get this weirdo error. The code of line is:

inline QString textInput()
        { return m_pTextInput->text(); };

inline QString textInput()
        { return m_pTextInput->text(); };

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

And the error is:

This CInputWidget is a class, made for QLabel+QTextEdit, grouped into QGroupBox. I am pretty sure it is a dumb error, but I cannot crack it, please help!

Nothing weird there. QTextEdit indeed has no such member as text(). You might want to take a closer look at QTextEdit docs.

Citate from docs:

QString QTextEdit::text () const Returns all the text in the text edit as plain text.
See also setText().

So, what the hell is going on?!

[jpn]

Are you reading docs of Qt 3? Could you provide a link?

Edit: Oh, it's part of Qt 3 Support Members for QTextEdit:

The following class members are part of the Qt 3 support layer. They are provided to help you port old code to Qt 4. We advise against using them in new code.

Qt3 support methods are only available if your Qt was built with Qt3Support.

Did u include QTextEdit ??

#include<QTextEdit>

and does toPlainText() work instead of text() ??

Ok, jpn! I was wrong, sorry, read the WRONG DOCS . But now I have a deeper problem. The following code:

connect(m_pStationIDInputWidget->ptrTextInput(),
            SIGNAL(textChanged()),
            this,
            SLOT(stationIDTextChanged()));

connect(m_pStationIDInputWidget->ptrTextInput(),
            SIGNAL(textChanged()),
            this,
            SLOT(stationIDTextChanged()));

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

returns warning:

warning: Object::connect: No such signal QLineEdit::textChanged()

Must I implement signal mapper or why this slot is never called when it should be?

[jpn]

returns warning:

warning: Object::connect: No such signal QLineEdit::textChanged()

QLineEdit doesn't have such signal. It has a parameter.

[MarkoSan]

Yes yes, I forgot to tell you I've changed the base class to QTextEdit, which has textChanged() signal. But I still get same warning.

[jpn]

But it says that you are passing a QLineEdit to the connect statement.
