    Hi there having a weird problem with QtCharts. I was following the example from here: https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtcharts-linechart-example.html
    but at the line where I declare
    QChart *chart = new QChart();
    It gives me the error:
    Exception thrown at 0x00007FF87757B51C (Qt5Gui.dll) in QtChartTest2.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x0000000000000000.
    Which makes no sense to me. I isolated the line and it's seems that it is what is causing the error.
    I am using Visual Studio Community 2017 on windows 10 and I have included in the project properties the Qt5Charts dependencies, which I have included, like here: https://forum.qt.io/topic/69915/qtcharts-causing-linking-errors-lnk2019/11.

    I ran the same example in QtCreator and I am not having the same issue.

    I feel like I am missing something very obvious that I am missing.

      I don't know how is your implementation.

      You're trying to access a NULL pointer.

      Use static constructor instead, QChart chart(args);

            can you post the content of QtChartTest2::weightsHist()? and maybe tell us which line is line 30

              Sorry yeah, I should have been more clear.
              WeightsHist is a method that is called by a button being clicked, that is meant to open a dialog with a hist chart. I was just testing the example from above out when I encountered the issue.

              void QtChartTest2::weightsHist()
              {
              QDialog *dialog = new QDialog(this);

              QLineSeries* series = new QLineSeries();
              series->append(0, 6);
              series->append(2, 4);
              
              QHBoxLayout *chartLayout = new QHBoxLayout;
              dialog->setLayout(chartLayout);
              
              QChart *chart = new QChart();
              chart->legend()->hide();
              chart->addSeries(series);
              chart->createDefaultAxes();
              chart->setTitle("Weights Histogram");
              
              QChartView *chartView = new QChartView(chart);
              chartView->setRenderHint(QPainter::Antialiasing);
              
              
              chartLayout->addWidget(chartView);
              
              dialog->exec();
              

              }

              Line 30 is QChart *chart = new QChart();

                Strange... what version of Qt are you running? are you using the MSVC2017 compiler in Qt creator too?

                  5.9.2. I was running 5.9.1 when I first encountered this, but updating changed nothing. And yeah, I am running the same compiler in qtcreator as well, I made sure of that.

                    In case anyone else falls into this error, i found the solution was that my Debug build in Visual studio was linked against QChart.lib, not QChartd.lib. Once i changed this it worked.
