Required a pointer "this" to QWidget inside a component class.

[ZikO]

Hello,

I have recently found a problem when I wanted to use a Qt dialog window to show information or ask for a file path. The problem is that I need to do it inside a constructor of another class. If I had an arbitrary code below, what would I need put in the line 43 (inside a constructor of class A) to open QMessageBox that requires a pointer "this" to my window class? If I inherited from MyWindow, would something like &(static_cast<MyWindow&>(*this)) work?

Thanks

PS. I did not really run this code. It is only to show the problem.
