Hi there; i'm struggling with the behavior of ApplicationWindow and I found that it only opens a window when used directly from main() but not from a custom class. Let's explain with an example:
---- main.qml: import QtQuick 2.2 import QtQuick.Controls 1.1 ApplicationWindow { visible: true width: 640 height: 480 Text { text: "Hello World" anchors.centerIn: parent } } ---- main.cpp: #include <QApplication> #include <QGuiApplication> #include <QQmlApplicationEngine> #include <QObject> #include <QWidget> #include <QUrl> class MainWindow1 { public: MainWindow1() { QQmlApplicationEngine engine("main.qml"); } }; class MainWindow2 : public QObject { public: MainWindow2(QObject* parent = 0) : QObject(parent) { QQmlApplicationEngine engine("main.qml"); } }; class MainWindow3 : public QWidget { public: MainWindow3(QWidget* parent = 0, Qt::WindowFlags flags = 0) : QWidget(parent, flags) { QQmlApplicationEngine engine("main.qml"); } }; int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { QApplication app(argc, argv); // MainWindow1 window; // MainWindow2 window; // MainWindow3 window; QQmlApplicationEngine engine("main.qml"); return app.exec(); } ---- Check the main() function: only with the uncommented code I get to see a new Window which shows the "Hello World" text. If we comment that and uncomment any of the other 3 options, which use a custom "MainWindow" class, then nothing will come out. I derived MainWindow from QObject and QWidget in hopes to find some solution, but I actually would think that a standalone MainWindow class should suffice for this basic usage scenario. Is it a bug or I am misusing this class? Also, extracting the inner QQuickWindow and forcing a call to show() doesn't work; ie: MainWindow1() { QQmlApplicationEngine engine("main.qml"); Q_ASSERT(engine.rootObjects().size() > 0); QQuickWindow* window = qobject_cast<QQuickWindow*>(engine.rootObjects().at(0)); window->show(); } doesn't work. _______________________________________________ Interest mailing list Interest@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/interest
