Question

I have the following character array:

char mychars[SIZE];

I would like to copy one character from a QTextEdit into that array.
I tried:

mychars[i] = this->ui->QTextEdit;
mychars[i] = this->ui->QTextEdit->inputContext();

But I get errors like:

error: invalid conversion from ‘QTextEdit*’ to ‘char’

Answer 1

You can retrieve the text in your QTextEdit using:

QString text = this->ui->QTextEdit->toPlainText();

EDIT:

if(text.size()>0){
    mychars[0] = text[0].toAscii(); // assuming your text is ascii
}
