Display an image in a c++ program

Thanks for your answer,

Hello,
I did my first tests in C++ with QT using a free online training and i don't remember where i found it, is there anybody that can help me to find it again ?
Thanks

The name is a bit misleading but that is the correct widget.

In your code you can simply do:

setupUi(this):
QImage image("tonImage.jpg");
ui->label->setPixmap(QPixmap::fromImage(image));

It works fine, thanks a lot but my problem is a bit more complicated, i need to load the QImage object directly from a memory buffer that contain the RGB value (8 bit per sample) of every pixel, do you know which method i should use to do this ?

SGaist

Look at this constructor using the QImage::Format_RGB888 image format.

Please take the time to read the documentation, especially the part about the buffer lifetime.

Hello,
I tried this code :
unsigned char tab[400];
int i;
for (i=0;i<400;i++) tab[i]=i%256;
ui->setupUi(this);
//QImage image("/home/x/passeport.jpg");
QImage image (tab, 100, 100, QImage::Format_RGB888, nullptr, nullptr);
ui->label->setPixmap(QPixmap::fromImage(image));
I just replaced le loading of the image file (commented) by an unsigned char[400], there are no errors at compilation but when i try to start it, it crashes immediately

What do you expect?
An rgb image with 100x100 needs a little bit more memory than 400bytes... 100 * 100 * 3 I would guess.

Oups
Sorry to disturb with that stupid question, i just missed a factor 100 (as it seems to be 4 bytes aligned), i just added two zeros and it works, of course i need to put a real image in my memory bloc but that is nt a problem.
Thanks

Is there a way to mark this topic solved ?
