WebView crash when is in Loader

CharlieG

Hi,

Have you noticed that WebView crash when used in Loader ?

Here a simply example :

import QtQuick 2.7
import QtQuick.Controls 2.0
import QtQuick.Layouts 1.0
import QtWebView 1.1

ApplicationWindow {
    visible: true
    width: 640
    height: 480
    title: qsTr("Hello World")

    Loader {
        id: loader
        anchors.fill: parent
        sourceComponent: view1
    }

    Component{
        id: view1
        WebView {
            anchors.fill: parent
            url: Qt.resolvedUrl("http://www.qt.io")
        }
    }
    Component{
        id: view2
        Rectangle {
            anchors.fill: parent
            color: "green"
        }
    }

    footer: TabBar {
        id: tabBar
        TabButton {
            text: qsTr("View1")
            onClicked: loader.sourceComponent = view1
        }
        TabButton {
            text: qsTr("View2")
            onClicked:  loader.sourceComponent = view2
        }
    }
}

Bye & good WE.

Hi! On which platform do you observe this behavior?

Hi,

I have this problem on Mac OSX 10.12 and Android 6.0.

QtWebView::initialize();
Do you have this in main.cpp?

@Alexorleon
Yes.

Temporarily, I use WebView in a Item and load this item on my Loader :

//MyWebView.qml
Item {
    ....
    WebView {
        ...
    }
}

Loader {
    source: "MyWebView.qml"
}

and this works...
