    Hi,
    my application crashed with following implementation:

    template<class T> void Vector<T>::Read(const QJsonObject& io_json)
    {
        //Read values
        QJsonArray json_array = io_json[s_JSON_DATA_VALUE].toArray();
        QVariantList variant_list;
    
       //Qt Bug?
       variant_list = json_array.toVariantList();  //not working (implicit sharing / move semantics problem???)       
       //Qt Bug?
    }
    

    If i discard toVariantList() and use a for loop to copy all values from json_array to variant_list everything works fine. Please, could someone help me with that?

    Best regards,

      Hi,

      A bit more information is needed to test that. What do you put in io_json ? How do you generate it ?

        Unfortunately it's a project of a colleague but as far as i know the OJsonObject passed to the function is retrieved from a file using QJsonDocument object() method.

        The file looks similar to this:

        {
            "min" : -100,
            "max" : 100,
            "val" : [
                45,2,
                34,9,
                17,6
            ]
        }

          Can you show how you are calling that function ?

          Can't reproduce your problem from your code and sample data.

          What version of Qt are you running ? On what OS ?

            @ttuna said:

            variant_list = json_array.toVariantList();

            Try this:

            variant_list = json_array.toVariantList(QVariantList());
            

            if worked then your json is invalid

              @Hamed-Masafi
              The variant_list is valid after creation. The problem occurs when the Read() function is going to be left.
              It seems that a stack object (i tip json_array) will be deleted and produces a crash.

              @SGaist
              Here are the lines which are calling the Read() function: (i have removed some validity checks)

              QFile load_file(load_path);
              QByteArray load_data = load_file.readAll();
              QJsonDocument load_doc(in_format == Json ? QJsonDocument::fromJson(load_data) : QJsonDocument::fromBinaryData(load_data));
              Read(load_doc.object());

                Can you create minimal compilable example that reproduces the crash ?
