"Innaccessible within this context"

Hi there folks,

I'm having a bit of a weird error here, when I use the following code:

void mainwindow::adddialogslot() {
    adddialog *add = new adddialog;
    add->show();
    if (add->Accepted) {
        QSqlRecord patient;
        patient.setValue("name", add->lineEdit_name->text());
    }
}

void mainwindow::adddialogslot() {
    adddialog *add = new adddialog;
    add->show();
    if (add->Accepted) {
        QSqlRecord patient;
        patient.setValue("name", add->lineEdit_name->text());
    }
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

The compiler tells me "QLineEdit* Ui_AddDLG::lineEdit_name is inaccessible within this context". I wonder what I am doing wrong. Sample code would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

I guess lineEdit_name is declared private. So you can't reach it from outside of adddialog. So best define a getter for the text.
