Issues with new IOS image type (.HEIC) in ios app

renatobibiano

We have an app that get pictures from iphones. But when trying to get pictures taken from the new iphones (.HEIC images) it says "Unable to read image data".

I`ve found that BUG: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-63638

At the end Eirik says that we should just install two patches. I don't know if I'm doing it wrong, but I have checked them out with GIT and replaced the files in the QT Creator 5.10 Src folder (inside of the qtimageformats folder). Am I doing it right?

After that what should I do with the project? I am only cleaning it, deleting the folder and then rebuilding it.

Please help!
Regards.

Hi,

Can you list exactly the steps you used to build the plugin ?

I am just downloading the files with GIT and replacing in the QT Creator/5.10/Src/qtimageformats folder

@renatobibiano After replacing the files you should build and install qtimageformats else the patches will not have any effect on your Qt installation.

@jsulm thanks for the reply. How do I install the qtimageformats?
