QML package issue in QT Creator

iqrajaved

Hi everyone,

I am trying to setup the development environment in unity8 and following all the steps being explained in the unity8 repo. Clickable is successfully working, QT creator also opens when I run the command clickable ide qtcreator. But the issue is, there are a few QML packages missing when I open the QML files, for example, the Util 0.1 is missing and error is reported as QML package not found.

Also due to these errors, the GUIs are not loaded in the QT creator as shown below:

I want to understand and contribute to the unity8 development, but I am facing these issues in the development environment.
It will be very helpful if someone can help me resolve these issues. Thanks

@iqrajaved hi,
first this repository is the latest one: https://gitlab.com/ubports/development/core/lomiri
Someone forgot to archive it...
The readme explain some hints to test and build ( need to be updated with correct path and repo...)
I don't think you will be able to use the designer afaik.

concerning the libs not being recognized, there is probably tneed to tune project paths.
What i do myself is to not let clickable setup the project ( answered "no" to the question ). ( just remove all user files in the root directory before launching again)

@lduboeuf Thank you, I will try with the latest repo and see if it works

humm last qtcreator seems more restrictive, there is an issue building Lomiri with QtCreator 11.xx
We must have to disable QT_QML_DEBUG in CMakeList when using the Qt5.12 Kit. I toggled off QML Debugging. I think QML debugging is not doable btw

Will try to update a video, now that QtCreator have a correct embedded terminal it is even more easier to test.
But a short video to explain what was my setup in 2022 to develop on Lomiri: ( start in the middle for qtcreator https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=sejOiSEv1Vk )

@lduboeuf This youtube video really helps now I can see how can I see my changes that I do in the source code.

My next challenge is once I have done the changes in the source code, how can I build the .img file from that source code and port it to utqemu for example?
