Qt5 android application

Question

in my android application i want to show a list of links.

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    QGuiApplication app(argc, argv);

    LinkListModel social_links;
    social_links.get(content_category::social);

    QQuickView view;
    view.setResizeMode(QQuickView::SizeRootObjectToView);
    QQmlContext *ctxt = view.rootContext();
    ctxt->setContextProperty("myModel", &social_links);

    view.setSource(QUrl("qrc:main.qml"));
    view.show();

    return app.exec();
}

This is my .qml file:

import QtQuick 2.0
import QtQuick.Controls 1.1

ApplicationWindow {
    id: mainWindow
    visible: true
    width: 640
    height: 480

    menuBar: MenuBar {
        Menu {
            MenuItem {
                text: qsTr("Exit")
                onTriggered: Qt.quit();
            }
        }
    }

    ListView {
        width: 640
        height: 480

        model: myModel
        delegate: Rectangle {
            height: 25
            width: 100
            Text { text: "modelData: " + title }
        }
    }
}

I don't show my model class as it does not matter for my problem. When I want to run the application in the emulator i get the following error message and the application aborts:

W/EGL_emulation( 6582): eglSurfaceAttrib not implemented
W/Qt      ( 6582): items\qquickview.cpp:518 (void QQuickViewPrivate::setRootObject(QObject*)): QQuickView only supports loading of root objects that derive from QQuickItem. 
W/Qt      ( 6582):

F/libc    ( 6582): Fatal signal 11 (SIGSEGV) at 0x2a43e000 (code=1), thread 6582 (.example.AKBApp)

Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

Answer 1

QQuickView only supports loading of root objects that derive from QQuickItem . ApplicationWindow derived from QQuickWindow . You should use QQmlApplicationEngine instead of QQuickView .

QApplication app(argc, argv);

LinkListModel social_links;
social_links.get(content_category::social);

QQmlApplicationEngine engine;
engine.rootContext()->setContextProperty("myModel", &social_links);
engine.load(QUrl(QStringLiteral("qrc:///main.qml")));
return app.exec();
