    Hey everyone.

    I'm trying to make a twitter client (called qTwit) in C++ with QT, but i'm a total beginner when it comed to making GUI applications, so I need a bit of help.

    I have completed most of the GUI now, but I am getting a few compiler errors. (I am running Arch Linux, and my compiler is g++)

    ERRORS:
    Code:
    bash-4.0$ make
    g++ -c -pipe -march=i686 -mtune=generic -O2 -pipe -Wall -W -D_REENTRANT -DQT_NO_DEBUG -DQT_GUI_LIB -DQT_CORE_LIB -DQT_SHARED -I/usr/share/qt/mkspecs/linux-g++ -I. -I/usr/include/QtCore -I/usr/include/QtGui -I/usr/include -I. -I. -o qtwit.o qtwit.cpp
    qtwit.cpp: In constructor ‘qTwit::qTwit(QWidget*)’:
    qtwit.cpp:6: error: no matching function for call to ‘qTwit::setupUi(qTwit* const)’
    ui_qtwit.h:41: note: candidates are: void Ui_qTwit::setupUi(QMainWindow*)
    qtwit.cpp: At global scope:
    qtwit.cpp:4: warning: unused parameter ‘parent’
    make: *** [qtwit.o] Error 1
    
    SOURCE
    main.cpp:
    Code:
    #include <QApplication>
    #include "qtwit.h"
     
    int main(int argc, char *argv[])
    {
        QApplication app(argc, argv);
        qTwit *dialog = new qTwit;
     
        dialog->show();
        return app.exec();
    }
    qtwit.cpp:
    Code:
    #include <QtGui> 
    #include "qtwit.h"
    
    qTwit::qTwit(QWidget *parent)
    {
        setupUi(this);
     
        connect( pushButton_update, SIGNAL( clicked() ), this, SLOT( getStatus() ) ); 
        connect( pushButton_cancel, SIGNAL( clicked() ), this, SLOT( cancel() ) ); 
    }
     
     
    void qTwit::getStatus()
    {
        QString status;
        QString user;
        QString pass;
     
        status_edit->setText( status );
        user_edit->setText( user );
        pass_edit->setText( pass );
    
    }
    
    void qTwit::cancel()
    {
        status_edit->clear();
    }
    qtwit.h:
    Code:
    #ifndef QTWIT_H
    #define QTWIT_H
     
    #include "ui_qtwit.h"
     
     
    class qTwit : public QWidget, private Ui::qTwit
    {
        Q_OBJECT
     
    public:
        qTwit(QWidget *parent = 0);
     
     
    public slots:
        void getStatus();
        void cancel();
    };
     
     
    #endif
    ui_qtwit.h:

    Anyway, I have gotten rid of a few errors, but the ones that remain I am really stuck on!

    If I have left any important information out, please ask me and I will add it.

    Thanks,
    Ben
