Hello,

 

I have a little question, but cannot poste the whole code here. Hope, my description is enough..

If I include my own class named “FileIO” in my .qml-files, I can use them properly. But if I start debugging on android, it doesn’t work anymore (red underlined and doesn’t read the txt file, like it’s supposed to). I import it like this:

import FileIO 1.0

Do you know, if I have to write something additional in the main probably or make some settings?

Right not the line in main.cpp looks like that:

qmlRegisterType<FileIO, 1>("FileIO", 1, 0, "FileIO");

 

Thank you

Nina

Hi!

The code you posted looks correct, are you sure that the class is really not available on Android?
It is also possible that there’s an issue with File-Access – relative paths and device folder structure might require some additional handling, you can add some debug output to the log with QDebug to see whether your code is working.

Hello Günther,

 

I think, you could be right with saying that it has to do something with relative paths. I would like to check it on Android, if all the data was transfered on to my mobile, but I cannot find the right file. It’s supposed to be in Android/data/ …. com.yourcompany.w …

But I cannot find it in my subfolders 🙁 I just can see this piece of information if I search for the game-name. Do you know, where I can find all the data of my game?

 

Thank You.

Best, Nina

Hi!

You can have a look at the Android Application Package if your assets are correctly packed into the APK. You can find the APK in the build directory under <build-dir>/android-build/build/outputs/apk. The APK is a simple archive, so you can for example rename it to .zip and unpack the archive to view the contents.

If you are using the Qt Resource System, your configured files in resources.qrc will be compiled along with the application (they are not visible in the archive then). The specified DEPLOYMENTFOLDERS in your *.pro configuration (e.g. your projects assets folder) should be copied to the assets folder within the APK.

Other files that are not within a DEPLOYMENTFOLDER or specified in the resources.qrc are not part of the application package and thus not available on the Android device.

Best,
Günther

Hello Günther,

 

I found the problem now with your help, but cannot solve it. I unzipped the file like you said and found out, that the fileio.cpp and .h are missing in the filesystem. Normally it is parallel to the main.cpp and the subfolders qml and assets. In the build I only can see the two subfolders, but no fileio.cpp/.h and no main.cpp. Maybe I did something wrong? I really need the cpp files to work properly.. :/

 

Thank you!

Best, Nina

PS: I would like to add a screenshot, but cannot find the file attachment button… drag and drop doesn’t work for me either 🙁

Hi Nina,

have you added the C++ files to your .pro file (using HEADERS and SOURCES)? This should be enough to deploy them along with your project.

Cheers,
Alex

Hey Alex,

 

Yes, they are in my .pro file. It must have to do something with the missing .cpp/.h file in the folder. I didn’t have the time this week to work on that, so no improvements on this issues were done. If I find a solution, I will poste it here.

 

Best,

Nina

Hi Nina!

You do not see the the cpp files in the build directory because they are directly compiled when you build the project. But there should be for example a main.o in your build directory, which is the object file of the compiled main.cpp. I’m pretty sure that all your cpp files are correctly compiled if you added them to the SOURCES/HEADERS in your *.pro file (they are also visible in the Project Explorer of Qt Creator then).

 

Best,
Günther

Hello,

 

I just checked the .pro file again and this is how it looks like (just important parts):

SOURCES += main.cpp \
    fileio.cpp

android {
    ANDROID_PACKAGE_SOURCE_DIR = $$PWD/android
    OTHER_FILES += android/AndroidManifest.xml
}

HEADERS += \
    fileio.h

Am I right to assume, that the .pro file is correct?

 

I just erased the android build form my pc and the app from my phone and reinstalled it, and now I found these warnings. That must be the problem then:

 

Warning: QML import could not be resolved in any of the import paths: FileIO

Warning: QML import could not be resolved in any of the import paths: QtQuick.Extras.Private.CppUtils

Warning: QML import could not be resolved in any of the import paths: QtQuick.Extras.Private.CppUtils

 

Google tells me, that somebody solved it by adding the ANDROID_PACKAGE_SRC_DIR to his .pro file, but as I can see, it is in my .pro file already..

Other google results refer to QML-files, not to .cpp (or generally own programmed). Probably you already know thsi issue?

 

Thank you for your help!
Best, Nina

 

EDIT:

And yes, main.obj and fileio.obj are in the build directory (not in the apk-package).

Hi, I followed up via email with some further suggestions – please have a look.
