I have written a Qt Quick Desktop application in c++ qnd Qt Creator(QML) on Windows7. Now I have to deploy it, and I need to hide the qml files and the images(means: to put them in resources and etc.)
I've read that there is a great way to do that with .qrc files. I read the documentation about those files, and created one for my application, which looks like this:
<RCC>
<qresource prefix="/">
<file>qml/GenericHostApplicationQML/myMain.qml</file>
<file>qml/GenericHostApplicationQML/content/PressAndHoldButton.qml</file>
<file>qml/GenericHostApplicationQML/content/TextButton.qml</file>
<file>qml/GenericHostApplicationQML/content/pics/advancedsettings.png</file>
<file>qml/GenericHostApplicationQML/content/pics/cnruninstall.png</file>
<file>qml/GenericHostApplicationQML/content/pics/dialog_cancel.png</file>
<file>qml/GenericHostApplicationQML/content/pics/folder_explore.png</file>
<file>qml/GenericHostApplicationQML/content/pics/gnome_session_switch.png</file>
<file>qml/GenericHostApplicationQML/content/pics/mail2_send.png</file>
<file>qml/GenericHostApplicationQML/content/pics/Picture1.png</file>
<file>qml/GenericHostApplicationQML/content/pics/Picture2.png</file>
</qresource>
In the main.cpp, I'm loading the Main.qml file like:
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
QApplication app(argc, argv);
QDeclarativeView view;
view.setSource(QUrl::fromLocalFile("qml/GenericHostApplicationQML/myMain.qml"));
view.show();
return app.exec();
}
I tried to read the myMain.qml file from the Resources.qrc like:
view.setSource(QUrl(":/qml/GenericHostApplicationQML/myMain.qml"));//I added the ":/"
but I've got this error:
file:///qml/GenericHostApplicationQML/myMain.qml: File not found
and when I tried this:
view.setSource(QUrl::fromLocalFile(":/qml/GenericHostApplicationQML/myMain.qml"));
I'm getting this:
file:///C:/Users/ayalafre/Desktop/ghaQML/GenericHostApplicationQML-build-desktop-Qt_4_7_4_for_Desktop_-_MinGW_4_4__Qt_SDK__Release/:/qml/GenericHostApplicationQML/myMain.qml: File not found
It seems like my Qt doesn't know what to do with:":/".
I have to use the .qrc file in:
Could you explain to me what's wrong?? and what I have to do in order to use the .qrc in both c++ and qml?
Thanks a lot:)
Have you try this:
view.setSource(QUrl("qrc:/qml/GenericHostApplicationQML/myMain.qml"));
When you do this:
QUrl(":/qml/GenericHostApplicationQML/myMain.qml");
the path is "file:///qml/GenericHostApplicationQML/myMain.qml"
