QImage doesn't take in a JPG
-
@Rapidrain said in QImage doesn't take in a JPG:
QImage* image = new QImage(); bool b1 = image->load("D:\\Projects\\FridgeMagnets3\\src\\f1.jpg", "jpeg"); if (b1 == true) { std::cout << "true " << std::endl; } else { // this guy always appears for *.jpg std::cout << "false " << std::endl; } setPixmap(QPixmap::fromImage(*image));your image is made with the jpg-codec but you tell QImage to use explicitly jpeg. I'm not 100% sure but I believe the headers are different.
Try it with the default probe/guess of the image format.
bool b1 = image->load("D:/Projects/FridgeMagnets3/src/f1.jpg");@J.Hilk I have used "jpg" and "jpeg" and "JPG" and "JPEG" and none of them work
As you suggested, I left out the second argument completely and it still doesn't work.
I am compiling this with MinGW using Eclipse Neon

@Rapidrain Your own build? That could explain your problem: you probably do not have the JPEG plug-in. Check the content of the plugins/imageformats directory of your Qt set-up.
If you compile Qt by yourself you should check the output of the configure command: it will tell your what is going to be built and what not. -

I found it last night. Now I wonder if I must include all of them in my compile and link statements, mention them in some manner.
My link command was :

Then I changed the link command to :g++ -Wl,-subsystem,windows -mthreads -o D:/Projects/FridgeMagnets3/bin/Debug/FridgeMagnets32d.exe obj/Debug/FridgeMagnets3d.o obj/Debug/MyLabeld.o obj/Debug/moc_MyLabeld.o obj/Debug/DragWidgetd.o obj/Debug/moc_DragWidgetd.o -LD:/Projects/FridgeMagnets3/imageformats -LD:/Qt64/qt-install/lib -lglu32 -lopengl32 -lgdi32 -luser32 -lmingw32 -lqtmain -lQt5Widgets -lQt5Core -lQt5Gui
Note that I added the imageformats directory as a source of libraries in the link command.
It didn't help though.

@Rapidrain Sure it exists, but does it contain the JPEG plug-in? It should be named like libqjpeg.so
You do not have to add any of them to your compile/link config!
When deploying your app later you just need to make sure you deploy all needed plug-ins as well. See http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/linux-deployment.html -

Can you suggest a chain of options I must add to g++ when compiling and linking this code?
@Rapidrain said in QImage doesn't take in a JPG:
Can you suggest a chain of options I must add to g++ when compiling and linking this code?
As I said before: there is no need to add any options to compiler/linker. The plug-ins are automatically loaded at runtime when needed. You either have some issues with your JPEG plug-in or with the picture you're trying to display. See http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/debug.html
After setting QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS your app should actually output a lot of text. Do you test a debug build? -

@Rapidrain After setting QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS your app should actually output a lot of text. Do you test a debug build?
the statement "set QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS=1" is not a communication with my app. It is a communication with the Windows Operating System. Why should my app output a "lot of text" ?? It hasn't even started yet.

wrong, it just sets an environment variable - Windows does not care about it at all. Qt checks this variable at runtime and if it is set it prints debug output while loading plug-ins. That's how environment variable work.
You can see which variables are set executing "set" command on Windows.

-
@jsulm so when I set a windows environment variable to a value, I am not communicating with the Windows OS in any way??
@Rapidrain It depends on what you mean if you say "Windows OS"? Do you mean Windows NT kernel? Then no, you do not communicate with it. If you consider the shell as part of the OS then you are interacting with the OS, but not communicating as the OS does not care about variables you set - it just sets a variable to a value that's it.

Hi,
From the image you posted, your jpeg plugin files are not located in the correct sub-folder.
