connecting Pop up Menu List to actions/functions

[ebsaith]

Thanks.... Solved

QAction has a triggered() signal which is emitted when the user activates the menu entry representing the action

This is what I have

void MainWindow::slPopUpMenu()
{
QMenu *newMenu = new QMenu(this);
newMenu->addAction(new QAction("Do that", this));
}

void MainWindow::slPopUpMenu()
{
QMenu *newMenu = new QMenu(this);
newMenu->addAction(new QAction("Do that", this));
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

how do get to the slot of the created action
after it is triggered

Im not seeing it!

I even tried creating a action on the form, then I was able to go to slot
but that how do I add that action to my menu?

As I said, connect to the action's triggered() signal

QAction *action = new  QAction("Do that", this));
connect(action, SIGNAL(triggered()), this, SlOT(doThatSlot()));
newMenu->addAction(action);

QAction *action = new  QAction("Do that", this));
connect(action, SIGNAL(triggered()), this, SlOT(doThatSlot()));
newMenu->addAction(action);
