A pointer member variable having different values
- by Rohan Prabhu
Ok, to begin with, this is my code:
HyperSprite::HyperSprite()
{
_view = 0;
}
void HyperSprite::publish(QGraphicsView* view) {
_view = view;
}
void HyperSprite::getKFrame() {
if(_view != 0) {
qDebug()<<(void*)_view;
}
}
Now, if I call HyperSprite::getKFrame() from within main(), I get the output:
0xbf8ffb84
I have a TCP server, which requires this QGraphicsView* variable. So whenever a new connection is made, HyperSprite::getKFrame() is called. However, whenever I make a connection to my server, this is the output:
0x1e425ff
I honestly don't understand this. Shouldn't the value of a member remain same throughout? Why is the pointer value changing? As is obvious, whenever I try to use the _view pointer to access any of its members, a Segmentation Fault occurs. I tried using QSharedPointer, but it also results in the same problem. The data of the QSharedPointer automatically changes. Why is this happening?
