I have a "simple" question and I am tired or programming like I am in C. I am doing a dialog with several radio button groups and I would like to get the values when the user presses okay. I have been looking at the example

QT Group Box Example

(Code below)


This example does a really nice job on showing how to build a button box correctly. However, it does not show how to access the current values when the user presses ok. I could go in and add numerous hacks and events to get me this data but I am tired of programming like this is C code and not C++. But again, I would like to know the correct method to do this and "pretend" I know how to program correctly.

Can any one give me an idea on how to access the radio button values in created in "createFirstExclusiveGroup" ??
