    I am following the simple line chart example on Qt's website (found here: LineChart example).

    I was receiving a strange Unhandled exception EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION error, and I have isolated the cause of it.

    The issue is this simple initializing line:

    QChart *chart = new QChart(); // Trouble line
    

    My main.cpp: (It is quite long so I removed all unnecessary functions)

    #include <QPainter>
    #include <QPen>
    #include <QApplication>
    #include <QMainWindow>
    #include <QtCharts> // for QLineSeries
    #include <QChart> // for QChart
    #include <QGraphicsWidget> // added because it is the base class of QChart (does not fix)
    #include <QChartView>
    #include <iostream>
    
    int LineChart::OpenGraphic()
    {
    	char *myargv[1];
    	int myargc = 1;
    	myargv[0] = strdup("");
    
    	//QLineSeries *series = new QLineSeries();
    	//series->append(0, 6);
    	//series->append(2, 4);
    	//series->append(3, 8);
    	//series->append(7, 4);
    	//series->append(10, 5);
    	//*series << QPointF(11, 1) << QPointF(13, 3) << QPointF(17, 6) << QPointF(18, 3) << QPointF(20, 2);
    	QChart *chart = new QChart(); // Trouble line
    	//chart->legend()->hide();
    	//chart->addSeries(series);
    	//chart->createDefaultAxes();
    	//chart->setTitle("Simple line chart example");
    	//QChartView *chartView = new QChartView(chart);
    	//chartView->setRenderHint(QPainter::Antialiasing);
    
    	QApplication a(myargc, myargv);
    	QMainWindow w;
    
    	//w.setCentralWidget(chartView);
    	w.resize(400, 300);
    
    	w.show();
    
    	return a.exec();
    }
    

    However, this does not seem to resolve the issue at all... I have seen this issue appear a few times in the Qt Forums, and I have not been able to fix it. I have checked the Properties of my Visual Studio Project, and I have already included the file \bin\Qt5Charts.lib within Linker > Input as well as \include\QtCharts\ within C++ > General.

    I'm just trying to create a very simple line chart but initialization of QChart causes issues.

      Did you try moving the creation of the QChart (and all the rest of the QLineSeries stuff) after the QApplication a(myargc, myargv);? That should be essentially the first statement in a Qt program, before you instantiate any Qt objects.
