Question

I tried using QDateTime’s fromTime_t as follows:

QDateTime t;
time_t elapsedTime;
t.fromTime_t(elapsedTime);

The result is that nothing is assigned to the QDateTime object.
However, using the function setTime_t does work (this one isn’t static).
Is something going on here I’m missing?

Answer 1

fromTime_t is static and returns a QDateTime, so you have to use it like this:

    time_t elapsedTime;
    QDateTime t(QDateTime::fromTime_t(elapsedTime));

or you can do

    time_t elapsedTime;
    QDateTime t;
    t.setTime_t(elapsedTime);
