I need to get xml information from a web page and I can.
I do it with a timer for getting information continuously.
My problem is, I couldnt catch the error signals continuosly. I only catch it once.
I tried examples on QT help page, I read a lot but there is no succes.
Here are my codes;
mainwindow.h
#ifndef MAINWINDOW_H
#define MAINWINDOW_H
#include <QMainWindow>
#include <QNetworkAccessManager>
#include <QNetworkReply>
#include <QDebug>
#include <QTimer>
QT_BEGIN_NAMESPACE
namespace Ui { class MainWindow; }
QT_END_NAMESPACE
class MainWindow : public QMainWindow
{
Q_OBJECT
public:
MainWindow(QWidget *parent = nullptr);
~MainWindow();
private:
Ui::MainWindow *ui;
QNetworkReply *reply;
QNetworkRequest request;
QNetworkAccessManager *manager;
QTimer *timer;
private slots:
void replyFinished(QNetworkReply*);
void updateDB();
void slotError(QNetworkReply::NetworkError);
void slotSslErrors(QList<QSslError>);
};
#endif // MAINWINDOW_H
mainwindow.cpp
#include "mainwindow.h"
#include "ui_mainwindow.h"
MainWindow::MainWindow(QWidget *parent)
: QMainWindow(parent)
, ui(new Ui::MainWindow)
{
ui->setupUi(this);
manager = new QNetworkAccessManager(this);
request.setUrl(QUrl("https://www.w3schools.com/xml/note.xml"));
// Get response
updateDB();
// Signals for xml
connect(manager, SIGNAL(finished(QNetworkReply*)),this, SLOT(replyFinished(QNetworkReply*)));
connect(reply, SIGNAL(error(QNetworkReply::NetworkError)),this, SLOT(slotError(QNetworkReply::NetworkError)));
connect(reply, SIGNAL(sslErrors(QList<QSslError>)),this, SLOT(slotSslErrors(QList<QSslError>)));
// Update timer
timer = new QTimer(this);
timer->start(2000);
connect(timer,SIGNAL(timeout()),this,SLOT(updateDB()));
}
MainWindow::~MainWindow()
{
delete ui;
}
void MainWindow::replyFinished(QNetworkReply *)
{
qDebug() << reply->readAll();
reply->deleteLater();
}
void MainWindow::updateDB()
{
reply = manager->get(request);
}
void MainWindow::slotError(QNetworkReply::NetworkError)
{
qDebug() << "slotError";
reply->deleteLater();
}
void MainWindow::slotSslErrors(QList<QSslError>)
{
qDebug() << "slotSslErrors";
reply->deleteLater();
}
Edit: I'm using QT 5.13.1 and I have added QT += network on .pro file
In your UpdateDB, you create a new reply:
reply = manager->get(request);
But you never connect its signals.
The very first one gets its signals connected in the constructor, which is why it works for the first one.
The fix is easy: move your signal connection for the reply
from the constructor to the UpdateDB function, so this is done for every new reply object you create:
reply = manager->get(request);
connect(reply, SIGNAL(error(QNetworkReply::NetworkError)),this, SLOT(slotError(QNetworkReply::NetworkError)));
connect(reply, SIGNAL(sslErrors(QList<QSslError>)),this, SLOT(slotSslErrors(QList<QSslError>)));
