Hi,
I'm currently converting a codebase from old-style connects to new-style ones.
Thanks to Qt Creator's refactoring support this is actually quite easy ... it
gets ugly though when either the signal or slot method name is overloaded, and
you have to write nice code like
connect(&process, static_cast<void
(QProcess::*)(QProcess::ProcessError)>(&QProcess::Error), this,
&MyClass::processError);
There can be done little to avoid this in general, but actually the overloading
of 'error' stands out: E.g. QProcess, QNetworkReply, QNetworkSession,
QAbstractSocket all feature both an error() signal and an error() accessor.
Ideas how to mitigate this:
1. We could deprecate the error() signal, and add a failed() signal (still in
Qt 5).
2. We could rename error() accessor to lastError() in Qt 6.
3. <your idea goes here>
Comments?
Regards
Kai
