[Qt] Can't create sf::RenderWindow using Qt's winId method
« on: October 30, 2016, 08:34:08 pm »
I haven't been using QT&SFML integration for a few months and today I've realised my previous code stopped working, most likely after updating to SFML 2.4 (from 2.3.2).

#include <SFML/Graphics/RenderWindow.hpp>
#include <QApplication>
#include "mainwindow.h"

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
        QApplication a(argc, argv);
        MainWindow w;
        w.show();

        sf::RenderWindow app((sf::WindowHandle) w.winId()); //Code stops here

        return a.exec();
}
 

It just stops, no error message or anything. Can anybody test it on SFML 2.4.0 & Qt 5.7 and some other versions?

Here's code of MainWindow class, most likely not useful at all.
//mainwindow.h

#ifndef MAINWINDOW_H
#define MAINWINDOW_H

#include <QMainWindow>

namespace Ui {
class MainWindow;
}

class MainWindow : public QMainWindow
{
    Q_OBJECT

public:
    explicit MainWindow(QWidget *parent = 0);
    ~MainWindow();

private:
    Ui::MainWindow *ui;
};

#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);
}

MainWindow::~MainWindow()
{
    delete ui;
}

Okey, I recently found some time to look into this. The problem does NOT occur on SFML 2.3.2, not at all. I recompiled it and with the exact same Qt version it's ok. Also, it isn't a problem with my library only, any other way to get SFML render to Qt doesn't seem to work. Here's an other topic describing this problem: http://en.sfml-dev.org/forums/index.php?topic=21070.0

As drawing to native widget is an SFML feature (is it?), should I mark it as an issue on github?

//edit:
Here's backtrace:

//edit3:
Apparently it's all because of sf::Window trying to get events by itself (backtrace #7). It didn't work earlier either, but didn't cause anything like that. However there's no documented way to remove events handling without modifying SFML code. Maybe adding sf::RenderWindow::enableEventProcessing(bool) set to true by default would be good idea? Or some fix in backend, maybe it's all caused by some small mistake in code.

AW: [Qt] Can't create sf::RenderWindow using Qt's winId method

In what OS does this happen? Try SFML 2.4.1 it contains a few bugfixes.

Okay, SFML 2.4.1 works fine, i didn't realize it's already released.  :)
Btw problem occured on Linux and, most likely, could be reproduced on any Unix-like OS.
