    Default C++ Qt5.12.1 - variable length array of QLabels

    Hello,

    3.  
    4. for( int i = 0; i < qty; i++)
    5. {
    6. topLabel[i] = newQLabel(topLabel[i]);
    7. topLabel[i]->setGeometry(20+(i*108),20,102,67);
    8. topLabel[i]->setFrameStyle(QFrame::StyledPanel|QFrame::Sunken);
    9. topLabel[i]->setLineWidth(4);
    10. numLabel[i] = newQLabel(topLabel[i]);
    11. numLabel[i]->setGeometry(2,86,100,70);

    warning: variable length arrays are a C99 feature

    It compiled without warnings on an earlier version of Qt.
    Now the program compiles and runs OK, but with various warnings, this being one of them.
    If I turn off clang, all warnings are gone.
    Suggestions please.

    Regards

    Arrays in C (and C++) are defined to have a fixed length, requiring the argument passed to [] to be a build-time constant (numeric literal, numeric constant, enum value, C++ const-expr).
    E.g. in your case making qty a "const int"

    If the length is only available at run time, then the obvious way in C++ is a vector, e.g. QVector or std::vector

    Cheers,
