QT5 qml-components

ittennull

Hi
I-m trying to get to work a really simple app that uses qml-components, but I got an error.
I use the latest QtCreator 2.6.1 and QT5.0
Here is the code
@int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
QGuiApplication app(argc, argv);

QtQuick2ApplicationViewer viewer;
viewer.setMainQmlFile(QStringLiteral("qml/temp/main.qml"));
viewer.showExpanded();

return app.exec();

}@

And qml/temp/main.qml
@import QtQuick 2.0
import QtDesktop 1.0

Rectangle {
width: 360
height: 360

CheckBox{
anchors.centerIn: parent
}
}
@

And I get segmentation fault in QStyleItem::sizeFromContents
I think this line inside QStyleItem::sizeFromContents fails
qApp->style()->sizeFromContents(QStyle::CT_CheckBox, m_styleoption, QSize(width,height));
where qApp is
#define qApp (static_cast<QApplication *>(QCoreApplication::instance()))
And it fails because qApp->style() return null.
I tried to get style in main function
auto papp = static_cast<QApplication *>(QCoreApplication::instance());
auto style = papp->style();
And indeed I got null

Do you know how to fix it? Earlier I didn't have to set styles to work with qml-components

There is a dependency on widgets due to use of QWidget styles. The easiest fix is to make your QtGuiApplication into a QApplication. Alternatively you can create your own style and set it on the application. Then everything should work. We are working on making components not depend on widgets, but in that case you would not get the native look and feel. There clearly needs to be some documentation about this.

Oh! It works!
I just replaced QGuiApplication with QApplication and now it works!
Thanks a lot

Great. I pushed a small fix https://codereview.qt-project.org/#change,43595 so that people will get notified when this problem arises.
