Implicit share going mad?

[P@u1]

Hi,

I had the following code:

void NetworkClient::connectToHost( const QString& ip, int port )
{
	m_socket->connectToHost(ip, port);
}

void NetworkClient::connectToHost( const QString& ip, int port )
{
	m_socket->connectToHost(ip, port);
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

and the connect never worked, although i checked the ip and the port with the debugger.

Then I changed it to the following without changing anything else:

void NetworkClient::connectToHost( const QString& ip, int port )
{
	QString localIp(ip);
	m_socket->connectToHost(localIp, port);
}

void NetworkClient::connectToHost( const QString& ip, int port )
{
	QString localIp(ip);
	m_socket->connectToHost(localIp, port);
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

And then it worked!

I think it has something to do with implicit sharing, but I don't understand, why this happens!
Please help :-)

Hi,

what do you mean with "never worked"?

Have you tried to catch QAbstractSocket::stateChanged and QAbstractSocket::error signals?

When you used old code, have you used some LAN sniffer to see the TCP traffic?

It's very strange!

So... what's implicit sharing have to do with this? In your second snippet "localIp" still shares data with "ip" and the potential copy that goes into connectToHost.
