CS Designer - Dialog with button box

Post by crispina »

I think there could be an issue with the way CS Designer creates XML for a dialog with button box. This is the generated XML for the dialog ui.

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ui version="4.0">
 <class>Dialog</class>
 <widget class="QDialog" name="Dialog">
  <property name="windowTitle" stdset="0">
   <string>Dialog</string>
  </property>
  <property name="geometry" stdset="0">
   <rect>
    <x>0</x>
    <y>0</y>
    <width>400</width>
    <height>300</height>
   </rect>
  </property>
  <widget class="QDialogButtonBox" name="buttonBox">
   <property name="standardButtons" stdset="0">
    <set>QDialogButtonBox::Cancel|QDialogButtonBox::FirstButton|QDialogButtonBox::Ok</set>
   </property>
   <property name="orientation" stdset="0">
    <enum>Qt::Horizontal</enum>
   </property>
   <property name="geometry" stdset="0">
    <rect>
     <x>30</x>
     <y>240</y>
     <width>341</width>
     <height>32</height>
    </rect>
   </property>
  </widget>
 </widget>
 <resources/>
 <connections>
  <connection>
   <sender>buttonBox</sender>
   <signal>accepted()</signal>
   <receiver>Dialog</receiver>
   <slot>accept()</slot>
   <hints>
    <hint type="sourcelabel">
     <x>248</x>
     <y>254</y>
    </hint>
    <hint type="destinationlabel">
     <x>157</x>
     <y>274</y>
    </hint>
   </hints>
  </connection>
  <connection>
   <sender>buttonBox</sender>
   <signal>rejected()</signal>
   <receiver>Dialog</receiver>
   <slot>reject()</slot>
   <hints>
    <hint type="sourcelabel">
     <x>316</x>
     <y>260</y>
    </hint>
    <hint type="destinationlabel">
     <x>286</x>
     <y>274</y>
    </hint>
   </hints>
  </connection>
 </connections>
</ui>
When you use this in a simple dialog example (see github link below) I get the error

error: invalid use of incomplete type ‘class Ui::DialogTest’
However if you change the dialog XML to that below the code compiles with no errors.

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ui version="4.0">
 <class>DialogTest</class>
 <widget class="QDialog" name="DialogTest">
  <property name="geometry">
   <rect>
    <x>0</x>
    <y>0</y>
    <width>400</width>
    <height>300</height>
   </rect>
  </property>
  <property name="windowTitle">
   <string>DialogTest</string>
  </property>
  <widget class="QDialogButtonBox" name="buttonBox">
   <property name="geometry">
    <rect>
     <x>30</x>
     <y>240</y>
     <width>341</width>
     <height>32</height>
    </rect>
   </property>
   <property name="orientation">
    <enum>Qt::Horizontal</enum>
   </property>
   <property name="standardButtons">
    <set>QDialogButtonBox::Cancel|QDialogButtonBox::Ok</set>
   </property>
  </widget>
 </widget>
 <resources/>
 <connections>
  <connection>
   <sender>buttonBox</sender>
   <signal>accepted()</signal>
   <receiver>DialogTest</receiver>
   <slot>accept()</slot>
   <hints>
    <hint type="sourcelabel">
     <x>248</x>
     <y>254</y>
    </hint>
    <hint type="destinationlabel">
     <x>157</x>
     <y>274</y>
    </hint>
   </hints>
  </connection>
  <connection>
   <sender>buttonBox</sender>
   <signal>rejected()</signal>
   <receiver>DialogTest</receiver>
   <slot>reject()</slot>
   <hints>
    <hint type="sourcelabel">
     <x>316</x>
     <y>260</y>
    </hint>
    <hint type="destinationlabel">
     <x>286</x>
     <y>274</y>
    </hint>
   </hints>
  </connection>
 </connections>
</ui>
I don't fully understand what is causing the issue but in the working XML the geometry property is immediately after

Code: Select all

  
  <widget class="QDialogButtonBox" name="buttonBox">


and I have no idea what the purpose of stdset="0" is.

I have put a working code example on my github page below in case this needs further investigation.

Thanks for submitting this example. We have tracked down an issue related to how the StandardButton enum was being used. These changes will be available on github with in the next few days. You will need to rebuild both CopperSpice and Designer.

Please retest after you have the new commits and let us know the status.
