Multiple .qrc files in one application

supaiku_

Hi,

I have a general question about how multiple .qrc files work together.
Let's say I have qml.qrc and another.qrc.
In my project I can only reference to the content of qml.qrc, the another.qrc is simply not visible.
My .pro file has

RESOURCES += qml.qrc another.qrc

The conent of qml.qrc is
<RCC>
<qresource prefix="/Test">
<file>main.qml</file>
</qresource>
</RCC>

and another.qrc looks like this

<RCC>
<qresource prefix="/Graphics">
<file>MyBeautifulIcon.png</file>
</qresource>
</RCC>

I have no clue why Qt only works with qml.qrc.

Hello :) I think that you need to write this instead of what you wrote :

RESOURCES += qml.qrc \
another.qrc

I hope this will work :-)

Hi,

No, that doesn't help.

Okay, I figured out what was wrong.

I used the wrong names to reference the files. I never assumed that the relative paths are part of the name
as well.

So instead of
qrc:/MyFace.png

I have to use the full name just as it is defined inside the qrc file.
<file>assets/Subdirectory/MyFace.png</file>
becomes
qrc:/assets/Subdirectory/MyFace.png

This is one stupid mistake of me.

Now, in order to make it work without having to use the fullnames I simply use a file alias.
<file alias="MyFace.png">assets/Subdirectory/MyFace.png</file>
and qrc:/MyFace.png works.
