I'm making a Qt application in C++ and right now I'm having trouble with a constant.
I use to have this code that worked
myMainWindow::myMainWindow()
{
...
}
//-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
myMainWindow::~myMainWindow()
{
delete this->Internals;
}
//-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
void myMainWindow::on_Users_pressed() {
pqPythonManager* manager = pqPVApplicationCore::instance()->pythonManager();
manager->executeScriptAndRender("/path/to/file/users.py");
}
But I want to put the path to file in a constant because it repeats in several places
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
const string PATH = "/path/to/file/";
class myMainWindow::pqInternals : public Ui::pqClientMainWindow
{
};
myMainWindow::myMainWindow()
{
...
}
//-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
myMainWindow::~myMainWindow()
{
delete this->Internals;
}
//-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
void myMainWindow::on_Users_pressed() {
pqPythonManager* manager = pqPVApplicationCore::instance()->pythonManager();
manager->executeScriptAndRender(PATH + "users.py");
}
But I'm getting the error
error: no viable
conversion from 'std::__1::basic_string<char>' to 'const QString'
manager->executeScriptAndRender(PATH + "users.py");
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
/Applications/Qt/5.9.9/clang_64/lib/QtCore.framework/Headers/qstring.h:219:5: note:
candidate constructor not viable: no known conversion from
'std::__1::basic_string<char>' to 'QChar' for 1st argument
QString(QChar c);
How can I make this work?
