Solved the issue by upgrading Qt from 5.5 to 5.9.

@Yakov-Eremin read this: https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtwebengine-features.html#html5-geolocation to check if geoclue is working properly simply test if it delivers a position: https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qml-qtpositioning-positionsource.html#example-usage

@ziiyaa Hello, Did you solve your problem? I have a similar issue where my Plugin works on a Debian but not on Ubuntu, where the supportedMapTypes array is empty.

Use a separate QObject-derived class and set it as context property. Other options: https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtqml-cppintegration-topic.html https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtqml-cppintegration-interactqmlfromcpp.html

@raven-worx Ah, I was missing the "file:///". Thank you very much.

If someone interesting you can solve problem like this: C++ side: QVariantMap params { {"osm.mapping.highdpi_tiles", YOUR_CUSTOM_VALUE}, {"osm.mapping.offline.directory", YOUR_CUSTOM_VALUE}, {"osm.mapping.cache.directory", YOUR_CUSTOM_VALUE} }; QQuickView *view = new QQuickView; view->setSource(QUrl(QStringLiteral("qrc:/qml/OSMView.qml"))); QObject *item = (QObject *) view->rootObject(); QMetaObject::invokeMethod(item, "initializePlugin", Q_ARG(QVariant, QVariant::fromValue(params))); QML side: Item { id: osmMain property variant parameters function initializePlugin(pluginParameters) { var parameters = new Array; for(var prop in pluginParameters) { var parameter = Qt.createQmlObject('import QtLocation 5.6; PluginParameter{ name: "'+ prop + '"; value: "' + pluginParameters[prop] + '"}', map) parameters.push(parameter) } osmMain.parameters = parameters map.plugin = Qt.createQmlObject('import QtLocation 5.6; Plugin{ name: "osm"; parameters: osmMain.parameters }', osmMain) } Map { id: map <...> } <...> }

@seb21 I've now managed to fully integrate the QML maps into QWidget application but I also have a working Google Maps plugin with all map types supported. I can share some code if you like? I actually prefer the ESRI map implementation over Google Maps and am presently looking at the ArcGIS Runtime SDK stuff for Qt.

@vladstelmahovsky Hi! Better ask this on the developers mailing list, this forum is more for end users.

@QMotza read about QtPosition read about reverse geocode read about routequeries yes, you can do whatever you want with Qt, but...you have to read a lot

I just stumbled accros the same odd behavior with Qt 5.7.1. However, the strange thing is, that it seems to be only a problem on android (on windows it's fine). Does anybody know if that's a (already reported) bug?

@Alexander_Lanin didn't see you already found it before I submit my reply...

Our March meetup session materials are now available. This time, the workshop aim was to discover the Qt.controls.labs. This time, I didn't create a new project for the workshop but used the Gallery example.

@nmnandakishore You are welcome. By the way, you might be interested in viewing this post containing the materials used during my last meetup which was focus on QtLocation - you could find helpful tips for managing maps, point of interests and route.

Thanks for the google map plugin, I study this post, the codes of your plugin and got some questions 1 : All of the information of google map are obtained by static api of google map? 2 : How could we support offline routing, offline search by term? By now all of the routing information are get from the server, to implement offline routing, we need to a : download require map, data from the server b : write our own algorithms to search the locations by terms and routing? I guess every maps data got their own format, but the locations searching and routing algorithms should be the same? 3 : QGeoTileFetcherGooglemaps is the main class of this plugin, which in charge of create request(by static api) and get the results back by the other classes? Thanks a lot

Run configure in verbose mode to see why it is being skipped. Also, make sure QtLocation folder is there in your source directory.

By just uncommenting the line: #INSTALLS += target additional in mapviewer.pro, It runs up and shows the map on my android phone, great!
