Problem with ressource file

[SGaist]

Hi and welcome to devnet,

Can you share the content of the file ?

And an example of line you use to load an image in a QLabel ?

@SGaist
File untitled3.pro:

#-------------------------------------------------

Project created by QtCreator 2016-07-25T14:54:55

#-------------------------------------------------

QT += core gui

greaterThan(QT_MAJOR_VERSION, 4): QT += widgets

TARGET = untitled3
TEMPLATE = app

SOURCES += main.cpp
mainwindow.cpp

HEADERS += mainwindow.h

FORMS += mainwindow.ui

RESOURCES +=
ress.qrc

---

Here I load the pic in the QLabel. It's also highlighted in the image in the first post:

ui->pic->setPixmap(pic.scaled(ui->pic->width(),ui->pic->height(),Qt::KeepAspectRatio));

ui->pic is the QLabel
pic is the QPixmal created above.

The code in the screeshot looks fine.
Did you specify an alias in the qrc-file?
Can you paste the plaintext content of the qrc-file?

[cpper]

@micland I haven't specified an alias(Actually don't know what that is,anyway)

Here is the content of the qrc:

<RCC>
<qresource prefix="/">
<file>cio.jpg</file>
</qresource>
</RCC>

[VRonin]

can you show how you construct pic? it should be QPixmap pic(":/cio.jpg");

[cpper]

@VRonin You can see that in the screenshot from the first post. It's the same as your line.

[VRonin]

Is rcc run on the resource file at all?

qmake is terrible at detecting changes in the .pro file, try clearing everything and then rebuild

[cpper]

@VRonin I've rebuild the project, still can't see the image. I'll try on a fresh project right now.

[VRonin]

Also, the .pro file that you posted should not work correctly. Newlines in pro files are the same as ; in C++

RESOURCES +=
ress.qrc

should become

RESOURCES += ress.qrc

same as

SOURCES += main.cpp
mainwindow.cpp

should become

SOURCES += main.cpp \
mainwindow.cpp

[cpper]

@VRonin Are you sure ? I haven't touched anything in the .pro file. It just auto-generated content, and I guess the compiler knows what he's doing

[cpper]

The same code worked on a fresh project and I can see the image. Strange.

[VRonin]

That means rcc was definitely not running

@VRonin

I tried to quote the post that contained the pro file, and it was correct with \ in the RESOURCE line

Sometimes backslashes are "consumed" here :)
