Not able to run basic example with UI in qt

[ujur007]

I am trying to build a basic qt example from the following link. The example has main.cpp file and some .qml files in the folder. By default .qml files are in the folder /Resources/qml.qrc//application.qml.

When I build the program the UI loads but it is not what is expected. I can not see the UI with a rectangle with red color. Can someone help?

https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtquick-deployment.html

In the application output window, I see the following error
file:///user/build-untitled2-Desktop_Qt_5_12_12_GCC_64bit-Debug/application.qml: No such file or directory

Okey, I found the error was in main.cpp file. The solution is to do something like the following.

view.setSource(QUrl("qrc:/myapplication.qml"));

A common way to deploy QMLs is to simply store them in a QRC file. Then they will never get lost, regardless of build system settings.

My application is still not able to find the .qml files.! here is a screenshot of what I have in the project.

I have the following in the .pro file of my project

SOURCES +=
main.cpp

RESOURCES +=
resource.qrc

DISTFILES +=
SquareButton.qml
myapplication.qml
main.qml

The last thing is that from my main.cpp I do something like the following, but the files are not found.
view.setSource(QUrl::fromLocalFile("qrc:/main.qml"));
