Description
The attached example program tries to put its Qml files into a "ui" plugin. Motivation is to avoid having the .qml files on the same level as the project's main CMakeLists.txt.
Running the code results in this error message:
QQmlApplicationEngine failed to load component qrc:/ui/main.qml:22:5: Type FooText unavailable qrc:/ui/controls/FooText.qml:3:1: module ":.ui" plugin "uiplugin" not found
- Is there anything wrong with using import ".."? Real life code is full of those imports.
- Using import ".." without the code being bundled in a separate plugin (without the ui subdirectory, using the application target directly) works.
ui/controls/FooText.qml
import QtQuick import ".." // << error message GreenText { color: "red" }
