Question

Im using qt4 and embedding a webkit view in it. The webkit object expects a QUrl object containint the url. My code looks like this:

QUrl *application = new QUrl();

if (argc < 2) {
  application->setUrl(DEFAULT_PAGE);
}
else {
  application->setUrl(argv[2]);
}
view->load(application);
view->show();

But view->load(application); fails here, as view->load expects a (const QUrl&) and I’m passing a (QUrl*&)

I dereferenced the application object like this:

view->load(&application);

But that cnoverted application to (QUrl**)

How can I convert application to (const QUrl&)?

Answer 1

Like this:

view->load(*application);

See dereference operator.
