Loading qml file several times without closing

RLocksley

I have a QML / Qt Application which loads a .qml file several times, with different models.

But before loading the file the second time the Application closes the first.

So my question is how do I load a qml file several times without closing anything ?

How do you load the file exactly ?
Are you using a the Loader type ? Can you show a minimal example to explain your issue ?

Thanks for your fast reply.

Below is the frontend code of a minimal example of my problem.

main.qml

import QtQuick 2.12
import QtQuick.Window 2.12
import QtQuick.Controls 2.12
Window {
    visible: true
    width: 640
    height: 480
    title: qsTr("ConnectionList")


    ListView {
        anchors.fill: parent
        model: models["list"].length

        delegate: Text {
            id: chatPartner
            text: models["list"][index]

            MouseArea {
                anchors.fill: parent
                onClicked: { appCore.receiveChatPartner( chatPartner.text ) }
            }
        }
    }



    Connections {
        target: appCore
        onSendModel:{
            chatLoader.setSource( "qrc:/Chat.qml", { "a_model": _model } )
           
        }
    }
        Loader {
                    anchors.fill: parent
                    id: chatLoader
                }

}

chat.qml

import QtQuick 2.0
import QtQuick.Window 2.0


Window {
    visible: true
    id: chatwindow
    height: 300
    width: 300
    title: "ChatWindow"
    
    property string a_model

    ListView {
        anchors.fill: parent
        model: models[a_model].length
        delegate: Text {
            text: models[a_model][index]
        }
    }

}

So you want to open Chat.qml (window) multiple times ?
You can't do it with the loader, it loads only one Component at the time
try to create your windows dynamically
