How to share Serial port opened in Main Window class with Dialog box class

[ado130]

I would suggest to pass the Serial port pointer to your DialogBox, e.g. in constructor.

Also possible solution is to define SIGNAL and SLOT between your classes. In MW you can define slot sendData() and in DB signal sendData(). Then in MW you can define readyRead() signal and in DB readyRead() slot.

Dear Developers,

Above method work perfectly when I want to send serial port commands from Dialog box to Main Window.

But I would be grateful to you, if you can please me how can I read data collected in mainwindow using array after sending serial command from Dialog box.

I have asked this question because I have read main disadvantages of using signal and slot approach for returning values.


Thank you

I have read main disadvantages of using signal and slot approach for returning values.

And where did you read this misinformation?
