    It does not. Do I need to copy it in there manually?

      copying it manually will fix it. But you will have to add it in your .pro file or better still put QML into your resource file.

        how do I add it to my pro file or resource file? Will doing so negate the need to move it in manually?

          You can add them as OTHER_FILES to .pro

            The best option is to use "resource":http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.0/resources.html. You can use Qt Creator to add a new resource. Just check the docs for more info.

              Seems like this is a bug that needs fixing.

                  No its not a bug. But yes it can be enhanced, so that Qt Creator does it automatically[/quote]

                    Its a warning right. Your app must be compiled properly now.

                        The error is same as you received above right. Please try it first and then make an attempt to post or ask - this way you will learn better.

                        Also you might have added it in your .qrc, but are you loading qml file from that path.

                            Would someone be willing to make a Wiki on the process of going from a QML only application to a Qt Quick C++ Application. It seems like a process many people go through so it would be helpful. I have found the process really difficult and I still have not got it done yet. Thanks.

                              What version of Creator are you using? This might be something that has been recently improved -- I'm compiling Creator from source, and the conversion from QML-only to QML + C++ project seems to "just work", at least for a small test case (and in general, QML support in Creator has been progressing at a very rapid pace in recent months). I've found the Creator team very responsive to feedback -- if you have suggestions for improving the process I'd highly recommend adding a report on bugreports.qt.nokia.com.

                              Regards,
                              Michael

                                  Try to build it in a directory without spaces in it's path. At least under windows the "Qt Quick Application" template won't work in a directory with spaces in it's path. The windows symptoms were a failure in the copydeploymentfolders step and this looks similar.

                                  There was a bug reported with a patch to fix this but it was closed as a "won't fix" from memory since qmake apparently doesn't handle spaces well either.

                                    just to add even Symbian builds don't work when spaces are there in your directory.

                                      The SDK already comes with an example I guess.

                                        I just tried building one of the pre-supplied examples:

                                        /Developer/Examples/Qt/tutorials/widgets

                                        changing nothing, and I got the same warnings. Could someone please tell me in plain English what is causing this? Running 4.7.1 on a Mac, by the way. Thanks.

                                          Or you can put make argument -no-copy in qtcreator

                                          Life without programming is like bread without butter - USELESS
