QObject::connect: Cannot queue arguments of type
-
@micha_eleric No no, it's not necessary to register anything. because QList is automatically registered by Qt and basic types do not need to be registered either.
@HaoTian which is why I wonder why it gives this error when it runs
QObject::connect: Cannot queue arguments of type 'QList<float>' (Make sure 'QList<float>' is registered using qRegisterMetaType().) -
@HaoTian Indeed, you are correct. This, for example, works:
#include <QCoreApplication> #include <QObject> #include <QList> #include <QDebug> #include <QTimer> class Object: public QObject { Q_OBJECT public: Object(QObject *p = nullptr): QObject(p) { QTimer::singleShot( 5000, this, [this]() { emit send(QList<float> { 0, 1.2, 2.3, 3.4 } ); } ); }; ~Object() { } public slots: void receive(QList<float> list) { qDebug() << list; } signals: void send(QList<float> list); }; int main(int argc, char **argv) { QCoreApplication app(argc, argv); Object *a = new Object(qApp); Object *b = new Object(qApp); QObject::connect(a, &Object::send, b, &Object::receive); return app.exec(); } #include "main.moc"So, @micha_eleric, what are you not telling us? Are there threads involved? Can you modify the example above to fail in the same way?
@ChrisW67 it is with threads, and the only place I have seen
QObject::connect: Cannot queue arguments of type 'QList<float>' (Make sure 'QList<float>' is registered using qRegisterMetaType().)show while running

First you should get your code compiling and running correctly as per @ChrisW67. You will need to use theQ_OBJECTmacro., and you should useconnect()syntax shown, notSIGNAL/SLOT()macros.But you may end up needing to reconsider your array/list arguments to the signal/slot. I assume you are signalling across threads. Qt will copy any arguments. If your array is "large" or if you intend to update the array in the slot (not just read from it) you may/will need to reconsider.

it compiles and runs, but

@micha_eleric Which version of Qt are you running ?

@micha_eleric Which version of Qt are you running ?
been asked this before, and still no clue how to find out. All I can find is the version of the editor.

how to find out
instructions do not work for my version of QT Create, and once i did find preference->kit->kit, nothing was listed under auto-detected nor manual

That sounds very strange.
What do you see when you try Step #2 in the instructions?

lol, second step also gave no version, but can find editor version elsewhere

How are your build folders named? In some case they are named by default like:
build_<Projectname>_<QtX_X_X>_<Compiler>_<Architecture>There you also can find out what Qt version you are using

@micha_eleric well, after pecking around, i found:
Qt 4.8.7 in PATH (qt4) /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt4/bin/qmake
Qt 5.15.3 in PATH (qt5) /usr/lib/qt5/bin/qmake
Qt 5.15.3 in PATH (System) /usr/bin/qmake -
i found another post that said to add
Q_DECLARE_METATYPE(QList<qfloat16>)but still gave same error while running.
