动态更改文本qlabel

Question

Sorry for my english. I need to change the text qlabel dynamically.

class Game:
{
...
    std::shared_ptr<QWidget> m_hint;
    QLabel *m_label;
    QHBoxLayout *m_layout;
}

void Game::setTextToHint(std::string str)
{
    m_label = new QLabel();
    m_layout = new QHBoxLayout();
    m_label->setText(QString::fromUtf8(str.c_str()));
    m_layout->addWidget(m_label);
    m_hint->setLayout(m_layout);
}

And i use this function eg twice:

setTextToHint("One");
setTextToHint("First");

But ultimately label = "One"

Ok i understood. I just suffered in class constructor.

m_label = new QLabel();
m_layout = new QHBoxLayout();

But question is actually:

Still I would like to ask to use stl smart pointers this qt object not good. I can not use smart pointers from the library QT only STL. What do i do?

Answer 1

You should have setTextToHint only call setText() , everything else should be done on construction of the Game .

As per your comment regarding use of stl smart pointers, I presume you're worried about memory leaks per your usage of new directly. In fact your usage is mostly correct - Qt offers it's own memory management while using a proper parent-child setup, so no reason to mix Qt object allocations with stl smart pointers (in general).
