The problem in this particular example is that once you've added the widget, the rightButton smart pointer no longer has a pointer. You can't continue to set up your push button. In most cases, this is just a matter of moving the set up before the addition / reparenting, or using the other idiom where the object is never in a smart pointer in the first place. So this begs the question of whether std::unique_ptr is the best smart pointer for this scenario. Would it make sense to create one that understands parent- child relationship? -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel System Software Products _______________________________________________ Development mailing list Development@qt-project.org https://lists.qt-project.org/listinfo/development
