directly passing text() trough slot from QListWidgetItem

[joval]

Hi

I have something like:

connect( list, SIGNAL( itemDoubleClicked( QListWidgetItem* ) ), this, SLOT( slotFromListWidget( QListWidgetItem* ) ) );

connect( list, SIGNAL( itemDoubleClicked( QListWidgetItem* ) ), this, SLOT( slotFromListWidget( QListWidgetItem* ) ) );

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

and then in slotFromListWidget function we do some things with item->text(). Is there any way to directly pass the text() return value?
I mean something like

connect( list, SIGNAL( itemDoubleClicked( QListWidgetItem* ) ), this, SLOT( slotFromListWidget( (QListWidgetItem*).text() ) ) );

connect( list, SIGNAL( itemDoubleClicked( QListWidgetItem* ) ), this, SLOT( slotFromListWidget( (QListWidgetItem*).text() ) ) );

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

while the slot will be

slotFromListWidget(QString str)

slotFromListWidget(QString str)

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

but such things don't work.

Thanks in advance.

You can either subclass the list widget and add another signal

void
mylistclass::myslotfordoubleclick(QListWidgetItem* item)
{
  emit mynewstringsignal(item->text());
}

void
mylistclass::myslotfordoubleclick(QListWidgetItem* item)
{
  emit mynewstringsignal(item->text());
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

or just connect the signal with the widgetitem to your other class, making sure the slot signature is correct. But you cannot do anything like you ask in your op.

That's what I have already done, just wondering if I can 'condense' it in some way.

Could you show some example? I don't know what you mean.

Thanks for response.
