Qt Charts: Access Violation exception
Unsolved
General and Desktop
-
Hi there having a weird problem with QtCharts. I was following the example from here: https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtcharts-linechart-example.html
but at the line where I declare
QChart *chart = new QChart();
It gives me the error:
Exception thrown at 0x00007FF87757B51C (Qt5Gui.dll) in QtChartTest2.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x0000000000000000.
Which makes no sense to me. I isolated the line and it's seems that it is what is causing the error.
I am using Visual Studio Community 2017 on windows 10 and I have included in the project properties the Qt5Charts dependencies, which I have included, like here: https://forum.qt.io/topic/69915/qtcharts-causing-linking-errors-lnk2019/11.I ran the same example in QtCreator and I am not having the same issue.
I feel like I am missing something very obvious that I am missing.

Sorry yeah, I should have been more clear.
WeightsHist is a method that is called by a button being clicked, that is meant to open a dialog with a hist chart. I was just testing the example from above out when I encountered the issue.void QtChartTest2::weightsHist()
{
QDialog *dialog = new QDialog(this);QLineSeries* series = new QLineSeries(); series->append(0, 6); series->append(2, 4); QHBoxLayout *chartLayout = new QHBoxLayout; dialog->setLayout(chartLayout); QChart *chart = new QChart(); chart->legend()->hide(); chart->addSeries(series); chart->createDefaultAxes(); chart->setTitle("Weights Histogram"); QChartView *chartView = new QChartView(chart); chartView->setRenderHint(QPainter::Antialiasing); chartLayout->addWidget(chartView); dialog->exec();}
Line 30 is QChart *chart = new QChart();

In case anyone else falls into this error, i found the solution was that my Debug build in Visual studio was linked against QChart.lib, not QChartd.lib. Once i changed this it worked.
