QMediaPlayer not working in dll

Zurg

QMediaPlayer statically compilled in exe - works correctly. Compilled in dll - does not work.

Qt 5.7.1, static build.

tst_play_exe.pro

QT += widgets multimedia
CONFIG += c++14
TARGET = tst_play_exe
SOURCES = tst_play_exe.cpp

tst_play_exe.cpp

#include <QApplication>
#include <QPushButton>
#include <QMediaPlayer>

QMediaPlayer ply;

int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
    QApplication app(argc, argv);
    QPushButton btn("play"); btn.resize(100, 30);

    QObject::connect(&btn, &QPushButton::clicked, &ply, &QMediaPlayer::play);
    ply.setMedia(QUrl::fromLocalFile("d:/temp/19/example/example.mp3"));

    btn.show();
    return app.exec();
}// main

It works.

tst_play_dll.pro

QT += core multimedia
CONFIG += c++14

TARGET = tst_play_dll
TEMPLATE = lib
CONFIG += dll

HEADERS += \
    tst_play_dll.h   \

tst_play_dll.h

#ifndef TST_PLAY_DLL
#define TST_PLAY_DLL

#endif // TST_PLAY_DLL

tst_play_dll.cpp

#include <QMediaPlayer>
#include "tst_play_dll.h"

#define VERSION 0
#define ERR -1000
#define EXTERN_DLL_EXPORT extern "C" __declspec(dllexport)

typedef long long si64;
typedef const char* cstr;

QMediaPlayer *ply = nullptr; /* !!! */

EXTERN_DLL_EXPORT int  version(void) { return VERSION; }
EXTERN_DLL_EXPORT void initial(void) { if(!ply) { ply = new QMediaPlayer; }}
EXTERN_DLL_EXPORT void destroy(void) { delete ply; ply = nullptr; }

EXTERN_DLL_EXPORT void open(cstr fnme)
    { initial(); ply->setMedia(QUrl::fromLocalFile(QString(fnme))); }
EXTERN_DLL_EXPORT void play(cstr fnme)
    {  open(fnme); ply->play(); }
EXTERN_DLL_EXPORT void rest(void)    { if(ply) { ply->pause(); }}
EXTERN_DLL_EXPORT void cont(void)    { if(ply) { ply->play();  }}
EXTERN_DLL_EXPORT void stop(void)    { if(ply) { ply->stop();  }}
EXTERN_DLL_EXPORT si64 lgth(void)
    { return ply == nullptr ? ERR : ply->duration(); }

EXTERN_DLL_EXPORT cstr lerr(void)
    { return ply == nullptr ? nullptr : qPrintable(ply->errorString()); }

This does not work (err: defaultServiceProvider::requestService(): no service found for - "org.qt-project.qt.mediaplayer").

Why? How to fix it?

@Zurg said in QMediaPlayer not working in dll:

This does not work (err: defaultServiceProvider::requestService(): no service found for - "org.qt-project.qt.mediaplayer").

did you also deploy the mediaservice plugins?

Hi,

Out of curiosity, why do you have that static QMediaPlayer object ?

Qt does not export plug-ins when creating dll.

tst_play_dll.pro

QTDIR = C:/Qt/5.7.1

QT += core multimedia
CONFIG += c++14

TARGET = tst_play_dll
TEMPLATE = lib
CONFIG += dll

HEADERS += \
    tst_play_dll.h   \

SOURCES += \
    tst_play_dll.cpp \

LIBS += \
    -L$$QTDIR/plugins/mediaservice                  \
        $$QTDIR/plugins/mediaservice/libdsengine.a  \
        $$QTDIR/lib/libQt5Widgets.a                 \

        -lstrmiids                                  \

tst_play_dll.h

#ifndef TST_PLAY_DLL
#define TST_PLAY_DLL

#include <QtPlugin>

Q_IMPORT_PLUGIN(DSServicePlugin)

#endif // TST_PLAY_DLL

Working.

Play audio from foxpro.

It has nothing to do with the fact that you are creating a .dll, it's because you are using a static build of Qt. In that case the plugin handling changes a bit.
