QSystemDeviceInfo batterylevel() not changed

[UdayaLakmal]

Hi,
Using QSystemDeviceInfo can not get battery level correctly.

QSystemDeviceInfo *dev_info;
dev_info = new QSystemDeviceInfo(this);

int battery=dev_info->batteryLevel();
QString qStr = QString::number(battery);
qDebug()<<"Battery Level"<< qStr;

using this code get initial batterylevel and even after batterylevel change and call above funtion it get the same reading.. but when application restart it correctly updated

i try this using signal but it also given the same result.
connect(deviceInfo, SIGNAL(batteryLevelChanged(int)),
this, SLOT(batterylevel(int)));

any solution?? how i get the correct battery level from the device

Thank you...

Thanks for the replay, i was implements my code according to that example but problem remaining. it only updeted and correct value display after application restart. otherwise value doesn't changed. (in qt emulator my code work fine and when changed battery level it updated accordingly) any suggestion..

Thank you..

It means whenever you start application at that time it will get the percentage value of the battery for first time and display it.

For change persantage value continuasly, you can use loop , so that code run continuasly after some time interval.

Usually signal "batteryLevelChanged()" would get emitted whenever there is change in battery level. Using any loops are not advisable, since it eat your cpu/processing power.

If you are not getting any signal in "batteryLevelChanged()" and feel like it's bug, then you can report it here.

Thank you
I used
deviceInfo= new QSystemDeviceInfo(this);
connect(deviceInfo, SIGNAL(batteryLevelChanged(int)),this, SLOT(batterylevel(int)));

in the batteryLevelChanged(int) need to emit this signal whenever it change the batterylevel. in my case it never emit during the application running (worked fine in emulator only device does not work this)
