I am receiving string as a XML document with this function: void HttpWindow::replyFinished(QNetworkReply *reply)

  • 0

I am receiving string as a XML document with this function:

void HttpWindow::replyFinished(QNetworkReply *reply)
{
     QString data = reply->readAll().trimmed();
     bool value=document->setContent(&data);
}

and here is my slot and signal:

connect(reply, SIGNAL(finished(QNetworkReply*)), this, SLOT(replyFinished(QNetworkReply*)));

When I put above code I get error that there is not pre-defined function that receive one string as I have sended…Can somone try to correct this so I can see how to put this Qstring value into xml document. So I can read XML

Thank you

EDIT:
these are the functions that I have to choose, I have tried all but it seems I am not sending right paremeters:

 // Qt extensions
    bool setContent(const QByteArray& text, bool namespaceProcessing, QString *errorMsg=0, int *errorLine=0, int *errorColumn=0 );
    bool setContent(const QString& text, bool namespaceProcessing, QString *errorMsg=0, int *errorLine=0, int *errorColumn=0 );
    bool setContent(QIODevice* dev, bool namespaceProcessing, QString *errorMsg=0, int *errorLine=0, int *errorColumn=0 );
    bool setContent(QXmlInputSource *source, bool namespaceProcessing, QString *errorMsg=0, int *errorLine=0, int *errorColumn=0 );
    bool setContent(const QByteArray& text, QString *errorMsg=0, int *errorLine=0, int *errorColumn=0 );
    bool setContent(const QString& text, QString *errorMsg=0, int *errorLine=0, int *errorColumn=0 );
    bool setContent(QIODevice* dev, QString *errorMsg=0, int *errorLine=0, int *errorColumn=0 );
    bool setContent(QXmlInputSource *source, QXmlReader *reader, QString *errorMsg=0, int *errorLine=0, int *errorColumn=0 );

EDIT 2:
I can’t compile it, I can give you this code:

httpwindow.cpp: In member function 'void HttpWindow::replyFinished(QNetworkReply*)':
httpwindow.cpp:140: error: no matching function for call to 'QDomDocument::setContent(QString*)'

Or tell me what to do to get that Qdebug output. You mean like Qdebug<<data ?

    There is indeed no overload of QDomDocument::setContent() which takes a QString pointer, passing by value would fix the error.

    However there is another serious issue in your code which is that you are trying to convert from a QByteArray (the result of readAll()) to a QString. This is not only unnecessary but dangerous, since the conversion is done assuming the content is ascii. You can just call document->setContent(reply).
