The resources usage seem to be right (added to .pro properly and the name and 
path seem to match) and the case are correct (assuming the actual file has the 
same cases). The Qml module must be added like stated below but you might want 
to also add core and quick control2:
QT += core qml quick quickcontrols2

You might want to add a trace before exiting -1 into your main.cpp:
QDebug() << “Failed to load the main qml script”;
QCoreApplication::exit(-1);

Also check the application output for any error or the Qml output into Qt 
creator (if you use it) it might tell you it miss some plugins or cannot find 
something. Maybe you Qml as an error or cannot find a component, it will simply 
not load making the application return -1 above.

No, only QML components need to be uppercase. The C++ and Python code looks 
100% the same. The only difference is that the C++ code uses qrc. Must be a 
bug!-) This is Qt 5.15.

Why? QML elements are capitalized. They must be.
the only exception is js imports: import "app.js" as App

Try a lowercase file name, e.g.: "qrc:/menuBar.qml".

I'd have to dig further about the lambda

Hi Nicholas,

The short answer is because your C++ is doing completely different things to 
the python code.  :O)

I'm not sure about using QML.  Have you included the qml file as a resource 
correctly to access via qrc:?  You aren't checking the result of the 
engine.load.  Also, why is the lambda exiting the application when the 
objectCreated matches the url?

Have run the Qt QML examples?  How is your C++ code different to those?

Hope that helps, Tony

Hi,

  I am learning about QML.

  I would like to find out why the PySide2 loading of the QML file results in a 
visible window but the C++ one does not. The compiled application runs but no 
window is displayed.

MenuBar.qml
===========
import QtQuick 2.4
import QtQuick.Controls 2.13

ApplicationWindow {
    visible: true
    width: 720
    height: 480
    title: "simple window"

    menuBar: MenuBar{
        Menu{
            title: "Menu1"
        }

        Menu{
            title: "Menu2"
        }

        Menu{
            title: "&Menu3"
        }
    }
}

main.cpp
========
#include <QGuiApplication>
#include <QQmlApplicationEngine>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    QCoreApplication::setAttribute(Qt::AA_EnableHighDpiScaling);

    QGuiApplication app(argc, argv);

    QQmlApplicationEngine engine;
    const QUrl url(QStringLiteral("qrc:/MenuBar.qml"));
    QObject::connect(&engine, &QQmlApplicationEngine::objectCreated,
                     &app, [url](QObject *obj, const QUrl &objUrl) {
        if (!obj && url == objUrl)
            QCoreApplication::exit(-1);
    }, Qt::QueuedConnection);
    engine.load(url);

    return app.exec();
}

main.py
=======
import sys
from PySide2 import QtCore, QtGui, QtQml

if __name__ == '__main__':

    QtCore.QCoreApplication.setAttribute(QtCore.Qt.AA_EnableHighDpiScaling)
    app = QtGui.QGuiApplication(sys.argv)

    engine = QtQml.QQmlApplicationEngine()

    url = QtCore.QUrl.fromLocalFile('MenuBar.qml')
    engine.load(url)
    if not engine.rootObjects():
        sys.exit(-1)

    sys.exit(app.exec_())
