Question for Qt6.2 - Qt.labs.platform Dialog

[mingr]

In Qt 5.15, Qt.labs.platform Dialog seems to be fine, and I can use it just by declaring it.

But seems like for Qt6, the Dialog can no longer be used. As it will now show Dialog is an abstract base class.

I wonder if this is the case or I set up things wrong?

I did not see any doc mentioning the change.

Platform: Windows/msvc_2019_64

@mingr Please take a look at https://doc-snapshots.qt.io/qt6-dev/qtlabsplatform-index.html and decide which dialog you need. Dialog is base class for the other dialogs.

@jsulm Thank you for your reply!

Yeah, I am aware of this, but when I try using Dialog (as you mentioned, base class for the other dialogs), I will have logs saying Dialog is an abstract base class.

So I would just like to confirm that this is intended.

@mingr That's the point: you're not supposed to use Dialog, use one of the derived dialogs.

[mingr]

@jsulm Ok, Thanks,

Cause originally, I used Dialog and it seems to work as expected (like a QWidget dialog).

[jimmyCAO]

because the qt.labs.platform has the Dialog as well, need to specifically use Dialog control in QtQuick.Controls
