Undefined reference to vtable. Trying to compile a Qt project
I'm using Code::Blocks 8.02 and the mingw 5.1.6 compiler. I'm getting this error when I compile my Qt project:
C:\Documents and Settings\The Fuzz\Desktop\GUI\App_interface.cpp|33|undefined reference to `vtable for AddressBook'
File AddressBook.h:
#ifndef ADDRESSBOOK_H
#define ADDRESSBOOK_H
#include <QWidget>
class QLabel;
class QLineEdit;
class QTextEdit;
class AddressBook : public QWidget
{
Q_OBJECT
public:
AddressBook(QWidget *parent = 0);
private:
QLineEdit *nameLine;
QTextEdit *addressText;
};
#endif
File AddressBook.cpp:
#include <QtGui>
#include "addressbook.h"
AddressBook::AddressBook(QWidget *parent)
: QWidget(parent)
{
QLabel *nameLabel = new QLabel(tr("Name:"));
nameLine = new QLineEdit;
QLabel *addressLabel = new QLabel(tr("Address:"));
addressText = new QTextEdit;
QGridLayout *mainLayout = new QGridLayout;
mainLayout->addWidget(nameLabel, 0, 0);
mainLayout->addWidget(nameLine, 0, 1);
mainLayout->addWidget(addressLabel, 1, 0, Qt::AlignTop);
mainLayout->addWidget(addressText, 1, 1);
setLayout(mainLayout);
setWindowTitle(tr("Simple Address Book"));
}
When using Qt Creator:
- Build → Run qmake
- Build → Rebuild All
Warning: Do not do this if you already have a .pro file - you'll lose it!
In order to automatically ensure that all moc cpp files are generated, you can get qmake to automatically generate a .pro file for you instead of writing one yourself.
Run
qmake -project
in the project directory, and qmake will scan your directory for all C++ headers and source files to generate moc cpp files for.
