Hi Alan, Thanks for the help! I think I almost have the example plug-in working, but I think I need another tip.
I built examples/qml/plugins/plugins.pro using Qt Creator 2.6.1 / Qt 5.0.0. It generated qmlqtimeexampleplugin.dll and some other files under the debug build directory "plugins-build-Desktop_Qt_5_0_0_MSVC2010_32bit_SDK-Debug/Imports/TimeExample". What's some good steps to then make the plug-in available to the companion qml project: examples/qml/plugins/plugins.qmlproject , or some other .pro project. It's not available in the plugins.qmlproject at this point; it says "TimeExample is not installed"). I also notice there is a directory examples/qml/plugins/Imports/TimeExample. It contains a qmldir file which contains the following: module TimeExample Clock 1.0 Clock.qml plugin qmlqtimeexampleplugin (Curiously enough, that directory also contains some .png files and some QML code. I wonder why an Imports directory would contain such files; it's confusing to me.) So, any way, what are the typical steps I now need to follow to use the plug-in some other projects? Do I need to just move/copy the .dll, or are all those other files also critical. Thanks for your help so far. I am excited to be getting so close to exposing a number of my C++ classes to QML via a single import of a plugin. - VStevenP ----- Original Message ----- > From: Alan Alpert <4163654...@gmail.com> > To: Steve Pavao <vstevenpa...@yahoo.com> > Cc: interest <interest@qt-project.org> > Sent: Friday, April 12, 2013 1:08 PM > Subject: Re: [Interest] example code for C++ plugin qml extension? > >T here's clearly something wrong with the doc generation there.
