    Default Qt QNetworkAccessManager and Slot not working in C++

    i am a beginner in c++ and i am trying to retrieve data from a website using http request and to download the data in a file .

    I am using the classes :

    QMainWindow QtNetwork/QNetworkAccessManager QtNetwork/QNetworkRequest QtNetwork/QNetworkReply QUrl

    The thing is that the file is created but there is no data in the file and i am getting an error that i don't understand . I searched through the forum found some similar kind of problems but did not understand as i am a beginner . Please help me its a school project and i am really stuck here.

    Here is the httpWindow.h code


    Qt Code: 
    1. #ifndef HTTPWINDOW_H
    2. #define HTTPWINDOW_H
    3.  
    4. #include <QMainWindow>

    6. #include <QtNetwork/QNetworkRequest>

    9. #include <QString>
    10.  
    11. class QFile;

    13. namespace Ui {
    14. class httpWindow;

    23.     ~httpWindow();

    Well, QNetworkAccessManager does have a signal called finished() ... but for the connection you also have to pass the signature

    Default Re: Qt QNetworkAccessManager and Slot not working in C++

    Plz can you explain further what do you mean by signature ? and in the code i posted i have written this function :

    Qt Code: 
    1. void httpWindow::request(QUrl url)
    2. {
    3.     manager =  new QNetworkAccessManager(this);
    4.     connect(manager, SIGNAL(finished()),
    5.             this, SLOT(httpFinished()));
    6.  
    7.     //requete.setUrl(QUrl("http://fxrates.fr.forexprostools.com/index.php?force_lang=5&pairs_ids=1;3;2;4;7;5;8;6;&header-text-color=%23FFFFFF&curr-name-color=%230059b0&inner-text-color=%23000000&green-text-color=%232A8215&green-background=%23B7F4C2&red-text-color=%23DC0001&red-background=%23FFE2E2&inner-border-color=%23CBCBCB&border-color=%23cbcbcb&bg1=%23F6F6F6&bg2=%23ffffff&bid=show&ask=show&last=show&change=hide&last_update=hide"));
    8.     requete.setUrl(url);
    9.  
    10.     reply = manager->get(requete);
    11.    connect(reply, SIGNAL(&reply::readyRead()), this, SLOT(httpReadyRead()));
    12. }

    Which is used in this download file function :

    Qt Code: 
    1. void httpWindow::downloadFile()
    2. {
    4.    QUrl url("http://fxrates.fr.forexprostools.com/index.php?force_lang=5&pairs_ids=1;3;2;4;7;5;8;6;&header-text-color=%23FFFFFF&curr-name-color=%230059b0&inner-text-color=%23000000&green-text-color=%232A8215&green-background=%23B7F4C2&red-text-color=%23DC0001&red-background=%23FFE2E2&inner-border-color=%23CBCBCB&border-color=%23cbcbcb&bg1=%23F6F6F6&bg2=%23ffffff&bid=show&ask=show&last=show&change=hide&last_update=hide") ;
    5.    qDebug() << url.toString();
    6.    QFileInfo fileInfo(url.path());
    7.     //msg.setText("fileInfo = " + fileInfo);
    8.     QString fileName = "C:\\testQt\\" + fileInfo.fileName();
    9.      msg.setText("fileName = " + fileName);
    10.  
    11.      if (fileName.isEmpty()){
    12.  
    13.         fileName = "C:\testQt\fichier.html";
    14.         msg.setText(" création d'un nouveau fichier fichier.html ");
    15.  
    16.     }
    17.     if (QFile::exists(fileName)) {
    18.         QFile::remove(fileName);
    19.         return;
    20.  
    21.  
    22.     }
    23.     file = new QFile(fileName);
    24.     msg.setText(" QFile::exists(fileName) == true , file : ");
    25.     if (!file->open(QIODevice::WriteOnly)) {

    28.         file = 0;
    29.         return;
    30.     }
    31.  
    32.  
    33.     // schedule the request
    34.     httpRequestAborted = false;
    35.     request(url);
    36.  
    37. }

    The SIGNAL and SLOT macros need the name of the signal/slot and the types of their arguments.
    QNetworkAccessManager's finished() signal as an argument of type QNetworkReply*

    This connect is also wrong, the SIGNAL macro contains more than just the signal's signature.

    Cheers,

    Default Re: Qt QNetworkAccessManager and Slot not working in C++

    ok , so i changed some things in my code in the request () function :

    instead of this :
    Qt Code: 
    1. connect(reply, SIGNAL(&reply::readyRead()), this, SLOT(httpReadyRead()));
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    i changed into this :
    Qt Code: 
    1. connect(reply, SIGNAL(readyRead()), this, SLOT(httpReadyRead()));
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    and i added " QNetworkReply* " and it gives this :

    Qt Code: 
    1. connect(manager, SIGNAL(finished(QNetworkReply*)),
    2.             this, SLOT(httpFinished()));
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    So in the end i have this code for request ():

    Qt Code: 
    1. void httpWindow::request(QUrl url)
    2. {
    3.     manager =  new QNetworkAccessManager(this);
    4.     connect(manager, SIGNAL(finished(QNetworkReply*)),
    5.             this, SLOT(httpFinished()));
    6.  
    7.     //requete.setUrl(QUrl("http://fxrates.fr.forexprostools.com/index.php?force_lang=5&pairs_ids=1;3;2;4;7;5;8;6;&header-text-color=%23FFFFFF&curr-name-color=%230059b0&inner-text-color=%23000000&green-text-color=%232A8215&green-background=%23B7F4C2&red-text-color=%23DC0001&red-background=%23FFE2E2&inner-border-color=%23CBCBCB&border-color=%23cbcbcb&bg1=%23F6F6F6&bg2=%23ffffff&bid=show&ask=show&last=show&change=hide&last_update=hide"));
    8.     requete.setUrl(url);
    9.  
    10.     reply = manager->get(requete);
    11.    connect(reply, SIGNAL(readyRead()), this, SLOT(httpReadyRead()));
    12.    //connect(reply, SIGNAL(error(QNetworkReply::NetworkError)),
    13.               //SLOT(onError(QNetworkReply::NetworkError)));
    14. }
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    This is the code for httpFinished():

    Qt Code: 
    1. if (httpRequestAborted) {
    2.         if (file) {
    3.             file->close();
    4.             file->remove();
    5.             delete file;
    6.             file = 0;
    7.         }
    8.         reply->deleteLater();
    9.         return;
    10.     }
    11.  
    12.     file->flush();
    13.     file->close();
    14.  
    15.     QVariant redirectionTarget = reply->attribute(QNetworkRequest::RedirectionTargetAttribute);
    16.     if (reply->error()) {
    17.         file->remove();
    18.  
    19.     } else if (!redirectionTarget.isNull()) {
    20.         QUrl newUrl = url.resolved(redirectionTarget.toUrl());
    21.  
    22.             url = newUrl;
    23.             reply->deleteLater();
    24.             file->open(QIODevice::WriteOnly);
    25.             file->resize(0);
    26.             request(url);
    27.             return;
    28.  
    29.     }
    30.  
    31.     reply->deleteLater();
    32.     reply = 0;
