How to display a QPixmap/QImage in QML?

@Wieland said in How to display a QPixmap/QImage in QML?:

qmlRegisterType<PixmapContainer>("io.qt.forum", 1, 0, "PixmapContainer");
qmlRegisterType<Backend>("io.qt.forum", 1, 0, "Backend");
qmlRegisterType<PixmapImage>("io.qt.forum", 1, 0, "PixmapImage");

@Wieland Why did you register the backend & container objects? Why would you access such objects in the QML? Just being curious...

@Julian-Guarin You're right, registering those wasn't necessary here.

This is a very good example. I follow the code and it works exactly as I expected.
Thank you so much

Hi, I just copied this example but I got some errors. in "backend.cpp" and "pixmapimage.cpp" . The errors are the same and:

error: undefined reference to `PixmapContainer::PixmapContainer(QObject*)'

What is the problem?

The problem is right there in the error message.
Where is PixmapContainer::PixmapContainer(QObject*) defined?
I guess you forgot to add the cpp file for PixmapContainer.

Or change this line

explicit PixmapContainer(QObject *parent = 0);

to

explicit PixmapContainer(QObject *parent = 0) : QObject(parent) {}

Yunus

@jsulm yes I didnt add it because in the example there is no file named as pixmapcontainer.cpp

Yunus

@jsulm Ahh okey. After added the line you advised it worked thak you so much

I found an alternative solution

So are you feeding that string to the "source" property of QML Image?

Yes
