Qml component child of qml engine on different path

Arsiero

Hi all!

I need some soggestion...
I have some core qml element inside the resource path (qrc:/Foo.qml) and other qml element out of this (file:///home/main.qml)

The qml engine that I need to use an main.qml similar this:

Rectangle {
id: optContainer
foo {
id: tmp
}
}

I thought to use a component in that way: QQmlComponent component(pEngine, QUrl(QStringLiteral("qrc:/Foo.qml"))); and after that try to add this component inside the QQmlApplicationEngine... but I don't understand how to do this...

Any suggestions?? :)

Thanks a lot

@Arsiero IMO one way would be after creating the object you can set optContainer as its parent using setParentItem.

QQmlComponent component(engine, QStringLiteral("qrc:/Foo.qml"));
QQuickItem *childItem = qobject_cast<QQuickItem*>(component.create());
childItem->setParentItem(containerObj); //This will be optContainer's instance from accessed in C++

Thanks for your answer @p3c0 !

as you suggested the object Foo isn't possible to use inside the Main.qml.

I found another way... if on the Main.qml import qmc path it's possible to use it:

import "qrc:/"

so this work fine for me!

Yeah. It directly injects it from C++ side.
