Connect QTextEdit and QTextBrowser in QT

I am trying to connect QTextEdit to QTextBrowser,so the text browser widget outputs what is entered in text edit widget. As a signal I used textChanged() function,and as a slot I used setText(QString) function. And these two don't have same parameters.

If I used QLineEdit instead of QTextEdit, in that case there is textChanged(QString) function which is compatible with the slot,but I need to make it work with QTextEdit. Here is the code:

#include "mainwindow.h"
#include "ui_mainwindow.h"
#include <QtWidgets>



MainWindow::MainWindow(QWidget *parent) :
    QMainWindow(parent),
    ui(new Ui::MainWindow)
{
    QWidget * mainWidget=new QWidget(this);
    ui->setupUi(this);
    QTextEdit * mainTextEdit=new QTextEdit();
    QTextBrowser * textDisplay=new QTextBrowser();


    connect(mainTextEdit,SIGNAL( textChanged() ),
            textDisplay,SLOT( setText(QString) ) );

    QHBoxLayout * Alayout=new QHBoxLayout();
    Alayout->addWidget(mainTextEdit);
    Alayout->addWidget(textDisplay);
    mainWidget->setLayout(Alayout);
    setCentralWidget(mainWidget);


}

MainWindow::~MainWindow()
{
    delete ui;
}
