The Error is:
no matching function for call to 'myLabel::myLabel()'
candidates are: myLabel::myLabel(const QString&,QWidget*)
note: myLabel::myLabel(const myLabel&)

You don't have default ctor for myLabel.

Path a string here

...
l = new myLabel();  //<--- pass a string into ctor
...

...
l = new myLabel();  //<--- pass a string into ctor
...

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

or make default ctor:

...
myLabel( const QString & text = QString(), QWidget * parent = 0 );
...

...
myLabel( const QString & text = QString(), QWidget * parent = 0 );
...

I don't really know how to do it the way you suggested

[Zlatomir]

spirit meant the code: l = new myLabel(); must be something like: l = new myLabel("A String is needed to construct your label");
And also this code should include QLabel header:

#ifndef MYLABEL_H
#define MYLABEL_H
 
#include <QLabel>
//you need header in order to inherit from  QLabel
 
class myLabel : public QLabel
{//...

#ifndef MYLABEL_H
#define MYLABEL_H

#include <QLabel>
//you need header in order to inherit from  QLabel

class myLabel : public QLabel
{//...

And also when you define the constructor you might want to pass the QString to the QLabel constructor too:

myLabel::myLabel( const QString & text, QWidget * parent = 0 )
:QLabel(text, parent) //here pass the text too
{

myLabel::myLabel( const QString & text, QWidget * parent = 0 )
:QLabel(text, parent) //here pass the text too
{

Changed it the way you said, even more errors ....
constructor

...
l = new myLabel("label");
...

...
l = new myLabel("label");

ERRORS:
default argument given for parameter 2 of myLabel::myLabel(const QString&, QWidget*)
after previous specification in 'myLabel(const QString&,QWidget*)'
In memberfunction myLabel::slotClicked()':
invalid use of type 'struct QDebug'
at global scope
inline function QDebug qDebug()'used but never defined

[spirit]

First, inclusion should be #include <QLabel> not #include "QLabel".
Second, include QDebug as #include <QDebug> to use qDebug()<<"Clicked";.

[joshy198]

Thanks, but still 2 errors left
Errors:

Sorry for beeing that irritating

[Zlatomir]

Don't put the = 0 (the default parameter) both in declaration and definition (both in .cpp and in .h file), put it only on the declaration (in .h file).
LE: a little bit clearer:

myLabel::myLabel( const QString & text, QWidget * parent) //remove =0 from here, leave it only in the .h file
:QLabel(text, parent) //here pass the text too
{

myLabel::myLabel( const QString & text, QWidget * parent) //remove =0 from here, leave it only in the .h file
:QLabel(text, parent) //here pass the text too
{
