Qml Image can not open file with bad symbols

[Elnur_Ismailzada]

Hi!
How can I open an image with symbols '%' or '&' etc?

import QtQuick 2.9
import QtQuick.Window 2.2
Window {
    visible: true
    width: 640
    height: 480

    Image {
        source: "file:////home/elnur/&'Test%25'.jpg"
    }
}

Error:

qrc:/main.qml:20:5: QML Image: Cannot open: file:////home/elnur/&'Test%25'.jpg

@Elnur_Ismailzada
What is the actual name on disk of your //home/elnur/&'Test%25'.jpg file? I'd be surprised if it actually has those characters in it...?

[Elnur_Ismailzada]

@JonB this is the actual name of the file. User can enter any file name. It is test.

@Elnur_Ismailzada said in Qml Image can not open file with bad symbols:

User can enter any file name. It is test.

User should enter a valid file name, depending on underlying OS... :-)

Anyway, I guess you should use URL encoding to avoid such situations, see url QML Basic Type

source: encodeURIComponent("/tmp/test#1.png")

@Pablo-J.-Rogina I tried encodeURIComponent. Error:

qrc:/main.qml:20:5: QML Image: Cannot open: file:////home/elnur/&'Тест%2525'.jpg

@Elnur_Ismailzada could you please post your whole source code? I can see 4 / (slashes) which is suspicious

file:////home/elnur/...

@Pablo-J.-Rogina Thank you for your time and help. I made a mistake.

import QtQuick 2.9
import QtQuick.Window 2.2

Window {
    visible: true
    width: 640
    height: 480

    Image {
        id: image

        Component.onCompleted: {
            source = "file://" + encodeURIComponent("/home/elnur/&'Test%25'.jpg")
        }
    }
