Porting Qt(C++) and qml application to Android platform

[Syed Aftab Naqvi]

I am porting Qt(C++) and qml based app to Android platform. I am not using Qt Creator because of the nature of the project.

I have done compiling the code using ndk and generated all the required .so files for my C++ components. Created the project in Android studios, included the jiniLibs(*.so) files, alos, used Qt provided Activity/Loader/Delegate classes and to write Android app. App loads the "main.so" and application get started. I can see the logs which tells me that its loaded. I have created QGuiApplication object and while creating QmlComponent, I am trying to pass main.qml into QmlComponent instance within main.so but I don't know how to specify the path of main.qml?

I tried qrc:/main.qml, assets:/main.qml but no luck.

NOTE: I placed my main.qml in assets folder. I am not even sure where to put that file while packaging.

Looking for suggestions, how do we specify assets/resource paths inside C++ code. In future, I need load many other resources.

Thanks,

I tried qrc:/main.qml, assets:/main.qml but no luck.

Why don't you put your QML files in a Qt resource file, and add the *.qrc file to your *.pro file? (See Qt Resource System).
Then you should be able to access it like so:

":/main.qml" or "qrc:///main.qml" (both are equivalent)

This is how I do it, and it works just fine.

Thanks for your response. I don't have .pro file. I am using cmake to build the project but I was able to map it.

Thanks again for your help.
