Dynamically add a qml file to an existing qml file...

[embersyc]

Hello,

Working on something for work where I need to build screens completely at runtime from prebuilt qml components:

Trying to follow some examples I see, but so far things aren't quite working how I'd like. Here is my code:

@int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
QGuiApplication app(argc, argv);

QQmlEngine engine;
QQmlComponent blackRectComponent(&engine, QUrl::fromLocalFile("qml/GUIManager/BlackRectangle.qml"));
QObject *blackRectObject = blackRectComponent.create();

QQuickView view;
view.setSource(QUrl::fromLocalFile("qml/GUIManager/main.qml"));

QObject *mainStage = view.rootObject();
blackRectObject->setParent(mainStage);

view.show();

return app.exec();

}@

The main.qml loads and displays correctly, all the code executes without error, but I never see my blackRectObject actually get added to the view.

What I am doing wrong?

Thanks

Never mind, figured it out on my own thanks to solution in another thread:

@int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
QGuiApplication app(argc, argv);

QQuickView view;
view.setSource(QUrl::fromLocalFile("qml/GUIManager/main.qml"));

QQuickItem *mainStage = view.rootObject();

QQmlComponent blackRectComponent(view.engine(), QUrl::fromLocalFile("qml/GUIManager/BlackRectangle.qml"));
QObject *blackRectObject = blackRectComponent.create();
QQuickItem *blackRectItem = qobject_cast<QQuickItem*>(blackRectObject);
blackRectItem->setParentItem(mainStage);

view.show();

return app.exec();
