[Solved] Module "XXX" is not installed

maksim1979

hi guys,

I've came across with a very strange problem. Namely I created a new "Qt Quick 2" project and then wanted to extend functionality with C++, for that I declared a class like this :
@#include <QtDeclarative/QDeclarativeItem>

class MyChart: public QDeclarativeItem
{
Q_OBJECT

public:
MyChart(QDeclarativeItem *parent = 0);
};@

@MyChart::MyChart(QDeclarativeItem *parent)
: QDeclarativeItem(parent)
{
} @

In main.cpp file I added this line:
@qmlRegisterType<MyChart>("MyChart", 1, 0, "MyChart");@

and after that I tried to import new module in my QML file, like this

@import MyChart 1.0@

in .pro file I've added this line: @QT += declarative@

So, I'm able to compile the application, but when I run it, I've got an error:

@ module "MyChart" is not installed
import MyChart 1.0
^
Unable to find a renderable master window QtQuick2ApplicationViewer(0x2afda4) when trying to render QtQuick2ApplicationViewer(0x2afda4) ( QRect(8,30 116x0) ).
@
I'm using Qt Creator 2.6.2 based on Qt 5.0.1 from revision 55e2124f32

So, maybe someone had similar problem and can share the solution? I would really appreciate any advice. Thanks a lot

You need to inherit from QQuickItem instead of QDeclarative* (which is QtQuick 1).

Pleasure. If that resolves your problem, please prepend "[Solved]" to this topic's title (you need to edit your initial post).
