Qt No such slot for the QProcess::finished() signal - c++

Question

I am trying to run a command line program, gphoto2 from my Qt app running in Linux and read the results that it outputs to Standard Output and Standard Error. The GUI in this proof of concept program is a single push button and a label that is used to display the output from Standard Error and Standard output.
I'm having trouble connecting the QtProcess::Finished signal to the correct slot. I copied the arguments list from the Finished() signal documentation in the header, the connect statement, and the function. The function name is prefixed with the MainWindow:: class identifier. I've run out of things to try and I'm hoping someone in StackOverflow will be able to point out the problem.
The Header file:
#ifndef MAINWINDOW_H
#define MAINWINDOW_H
#include <QMainWindow>
#include <QString>
#include <QProcess>
#include <QObject>
namespace Ui {
class MainWindow;
}
class MainWindow : public QMainWindow
{
Q_OBJECT
public:
explicit MainWindow(QWidget *parent = 0);
~MainWindow();
void reply2();
private slots:
void on_pushButton_clicked();
void on_cameraControlExit(int exitCode, QProcess::ExitStatus exitStatus);
private:
Ui::MainWindow *ui;
QProcess* cameraControl;
};
#endif // MAINWINDOW_H
The mainwindow.cpp file
#include "mainwindow.h"
#include "ui_mainwindow.h"
#include <QProcess>
#include <QShortcut>
#include <QDebug>
MainWindow::MainWindow(QWidget *parent) :
QMainWindow(parent),
ui(new Ui::MainWindow)
{
ui->setupUi(this);
cameraControl = new QProcess(this);
}
MainWindow::~MainWindow()
{
delete ui;
cameraControl->close();
delete cameraControl;
}
void MainWindow::on_pushButton_clicked()
{
// connect the camera control finished signal to the slot that will read the exit code and
// place the std output string from the process into a label on the form
connect(cameraControl, SIGNAL(finished(int , QProcess::ExitStatus )),
this, SLOT(MainWindow::on_cameraControlExit(int exitCode, QProcess::ExitStatus exitStatus)));
// Disable the ui button do we don't get double presses
ui->pushButton->setDisabled(true);
// setup the gphoto2 arguments list
QStringList args;
args.append("--capture-image-and-download");
// start the camera control
cameraControl->start("gphoto2",args);
// // wait for the process to finish or 30 seconds whichever comes first
cameraControl->waitForFinished(30000);
}
void MainWindow::on_cameraControlExit(int exitCode, QProcess::ExitStatus exitStatus)
{
qDebug() << cameraControl->errorString();
qDebug() << cameraControl->readAllStandardError();
qDebug() << cameraControl->readAllStandardOutput();
ui->pushButton->setEnabled(true);
}

Answer 1

Or with C++14 (modern compilers)
QObject::connect(cameraControl, qOverload<int, QProcess::ExitStatus >(&QProcess::finished), this, &MainWindow::on_cameraControlExit);
Or in the Qt5 convention:
QObject::connect(cameraControl, static_cast<void(QProcess::*)(int, QProcess::ExitStatus)>(&QProcess::finished), this, &MainWindow::on_cameraControlExit);

Answer 2

I believe the following will work:
connect(cameraControl, SIGNAL(finished(int , QProcess::ExitStatus )), this, SLOT(on_cameraControlExit(int , QProcess::ExitStatus )));

Answer 3

I had the same issue. I think it happens because finished signal function is overloaded with 2 signatures and the compiler has trouble to infer the type:
void finished(int exitCode);
void finished(int exitCode, QProcess::ExitStatus exitStatus);
Here is my quick-and-dirty workaround:
1) Open qprocess.h
2) Comment the "shorter" signatures:
// void finished(int exitCode);
3) Then connect finished-signal with your lambda slot:
QObject::connect(&process, &QProcess::finished, [=](int exitCode, QProcess::ExitStatus exitStatus){
qDebug() << "finished. Exit code: " + exitCode ;
});
