Hi,

I have come across an issue with showing dialog box in my application. The problem is, I have a main application from where a dialog box is showed when a user clicks on a button. And my dialog box comprises of 2 LineEdit widgets and two Button widgets "OK" & "Cancel". I have connected the accept and reject result codes to respective buttons.

During the validation I have to check if the two lineedits are not empty when the user clicks on the "OK" button. If they are empty I have to keep the dialog box active otherwise close it. My problem is the dialog box is closed even if the fields are empty. I am confused on how to make this with my written logic code.

Qt Code: 
  1. void MainWindow::getFormdetails()
  2.  {
  3.       fd = new formDialog();
  5.  
  6.       if(fd->exec() == 1)
  7.      {
  8.          data = fd->returnFormdata();
  9.          qDebug() << data;
  10.        }
  11.  }
  12.  
  13. formDialog::formDIalog()
  14. {
  15.   connect(okButton, SIGNAL(clicked()), this, SLOT(formFieldCheck()));
  16.    connect(okButton, SIGNAL(clicked()), this, SLOT(accept()));
  17.    connect(cancelButton, SIGNAL(clicked()), this, SLOT(reject()));
  18. }
  19. void formDialog::formFieldCheck()
  20. {
  21.      if(formLedit[0]->text().isEmpty() || formLedit[1]->text().isEmpty())
  22.         {  QMessageBox::information(this, tr("Empty Field"),
  23.                                     tr("Please enter a name."));
  24.  
  25.             }
  26.         else {list.append(formLedit[0]->text());
  27.             list.append(formLedit[1]->text());
  28.             list.append(age->text());
  29.             list.append(gender->currentText());
  30.             this->hide();}
  31. }
  32.  
  33. QStringList formDialog::returnFormdata()
  34. {
  35.     return list;
  36. }
  37.  
  38. I would really appreciate if any one can help me with this.
