When I try to get data from form field WPasswordEdit with method valueText, it return me an empty string.

I use wt 4.13.1

Hello Flavio,

valueText() is working fine for me.

I would be happy to help you, but it is difficult to determine why it isn't working with so little information. Maybe you could share a snippet of your code or give a small example where you expect valueText() to return a value, but it returns an empty string instead.

Hi,

here a snippet of my code:

[
void LoginPage::processInput()
{
error_->hide();

string u = username_->valueText().toUTF8();
string p = password_->valueText().toUTF8();
//string p = password_->text().toUTF8();

BLOG(severity::info) << u << " - " << p << endl;

return processLogin(u, p, false);

}
]

username_ is a WLineEdit and password_ is WPasswordEdit:

processInput start when user click on button login.

I want to specify that the valueText() method returns an empty string when the data is automatically populated by the browser. (Instead username_ is populated correctly).

I tryed other ways to get access to the object's content but nobody has worked for me.

At the end, I downloaded wt version 4.12.6 and the behaviur was restored. For this reasons i think this is a little bug.

I'm a young software developer and have no experience with forums, so I hope this information helps you and me.
