Seems to be a bug in Qt Visual Studio Tools – works when I revert to an older 
version.
I’ll report it.

Kind regards

Subject: [Interest] Issues with QML registration of C++ types (only in Visual 
Studio Solution)

CAUTION: External email. Do not click on links or open attachments unless you 
know the sender and that the content is safe.

My project contains QML files that will refer to C++ types by name. The QML 
module and type are registered on startup, the QML file does the right 
import(s), then I can use C++ classes (QObjects with QML_ELEMENT) as typed 
entities in QML.
Everything works as expected….when using cmake.

The same project can be built and run using Visual Studio Solution and msbuild.
There, the exact same code fails to register the C++ types properly.

Inside QQmlPrivate::qmlregister, I get into a ‘warning’ branch for all types:

                qWarning().nospace() << "Missing QML.Element class info for "
                                     << type.classInfoMetaObject->className();

I get there because “metaObject->classInfoCount() + offset” returns -1. 
However, I can verify that I register the C++ class as metatype before I get 
there (qRegisterMetaType gets called, and a valid id is returned)

Why should classInfo be invalid although the type is registered?
How can I find out what’s wrong (and how to fix it)?

Kind regards

Robert
