How to QDialog raise() function is not working?

From my QMainwindow I am opening a second QDialog window when a pushbutton is pressed.This is my code 

    newFile = new Dialog();  
    if(fStatus == 0)
    {
        newFile.show();
        fStatus = 1;
    }

    else if(fStatus == 1)
    {
        newFile.raise();
    }

What I am trying to do is if the QDialog window is already open and the push button is pressed again I want my QDialog window to move to front.

I have tried same with Qwidget form it is working but Qdialog raise(); is not working,but in case of Qwidget I am not able not capture the Qwidget destroyed signal on closing of the widow properly.

I didn't tested it but from what I read I found this :

yourQWidget->show();
yourQWidget->activateWindow();
yourQWidget->raise();

How to Bring the Widget Bring to front in QT? 

QDialog *yourQDialog = new ...
yourQDialog->setWindowFlags(yourQDialog->windowFlags() | Qt::WindowStaysOnTopHint);
yourQDialog->show();

Bring QDialog to front

Also loook at this question: Bring window to front -> raise(),show(),activateWindow() don’t work
