QNetworkAccessManager finished signal error

[4j1th]

@mcosta I test the url on a browser and it worked, it's a LAMP server

environment : Qt 5.4.1, Ubuntu 12.04

the same code is run on main window class fine but I can't run the same network request on custom resource/header. I want to write the data updating section code on a different resource/header file.

[mcosta]

Hi,

when you run your Qt code, can you see the request on the server side? (apache access_log file for instance)?

what about remove the custom header? something changes?

Hi,

Any chance of having something like:

void MyCoolClass::getUpate()
{
    Updater updater;
    updater.getToken();
}

?

@mcosta Removed the header part but nothing on access log. I think the QNetworkAccessManager no even sending any request.

[4j1th]

@SGaist No luck.

@SGaist @mcosta I think I got a clue, In

void MyCoolClass::getUpate()
{
     Updater updater;
     updater.getToken();
    
     this->runUpdate();
}

if I run both then only 'this->runUpdate();' call will work if commented out 'this->runUpdate();' then 'updater.getToken();' works.

void MyCoolClass::runUpdate()
{
    
    QNetworkAccessManager *manager = new QNetworkAccessManager(this);
    request.setUrl(QUrl("http://localhost/cdms/pro/index.php/update/linux?version=4.14&"
                        "lisenceRegis=1&onlineRegis=1"));

    QNetworkReply *reply = manager->get(request);

    connect(manager, SIGNAL(finished(QNetworkReply*)),
            this, SLOT(replyFinished(QNetworkReply*)));
}


void CDMS::replyFinished(QNetworkReply * replay)
{

    // Checking replay
    if (replay->isReadable()) {

        // Checking errors
        if(replay->error() == QNetworkReply::NoError) {
            QByteArray strreplay = replay->readAll();

            // update ststus check
            if(strreplay != "0") {
               } else {
                ui->statusBar->showMessage("No new updates found", 10000);

                // run update on intervel in 30Minute
                QTimer::singleShot(1800000, this, SLOT(updateOnlineTimer()));

               
                // Run update on data and settings
                //Updater updateCDMSdata;
                //updateCDMSdata.getToken();

            }

        } else {
            ui->statusBar->showMessage(replay->errorString(), 10000);

            // run update on intervel in 1Minute
            QTimer::singleShot(60000, this, SLOT(updateOnlineTimer()));
        }
    }
}

I want to call the 'Updater' when the 'runUpdate' download finished.

[jsulm]

You create a local instance of Updater in this method:

void MyCoolClass::getUpate()
{
     Updater updater;
     updater.getToken();
    
     this->runUpdate();
}

As soon as this method finishes updater goes out of scope and is destroyed. That's why nothing is called. You must keep the instance until it finishes its work.

[4j1th]

Replace with this works fine

void MyCoolClass::getUpate()
{

 Updater *updateCDMSdata = new Updater;

 this->runUpdate();

}

[jsulm]

But now you have a memory leak: you do not delete updateCDMSdata

[SGaist]

To add to @jsulm, what does runUpdate do ? Call a function on updateCDMSdata ? If so you are lucky id doesn't crash.

If you will be using Updater several times then make it a member of your MyCoolClass object and don't forget to handle its deletion.

[4j1th]

@SGaist , runUpdate used to update the software and updateCDMSdata used to update data. I want to run data update when there is no software update, first check software update then from the 'finished(QNetworkReply*)' signal data update started.

I need to call updater several times, so I think use Updater as a member and delete on MyCoolClass::~MyCoolClass() is a better idea ?

[SGaist]

Since it's a QObject you can use the parent/child paradigm to let Qt handle the deletion for you.
