Creating an object of QDeclarativeView results in segmentation fault

.h

Code:

---

#include <QObject>
#include <QDebug>
 
class MyClass : public QObject
{
  Q_OBJECT
public:
  Q_INVOKABLE void cppMethod (const QString &msg) 
  {
    qDebug() << "Called the C++ method with" << msg;
  }
 
public slots:
  void cppSlot (int number) 
  {
    qDebug() << "Called the C++ slot with" << number;
  }
};

---

.cpp

Code:

---

#include <QtCore/QCoreApplication>
#include <QDeclarativeEngine>
#include <QDeclarativeComponent>
#include <QDeclarativeContext>
#include <QDeclarativeView>
#include <QVariant>
#include <QMetaObject>
 
#include "cppFromQml.h"
 
int main (int argc, char *argv[]) 
{
  QCoreApplication a(argc, argv);
  QDeclarativeView view;
 
  return a.exec();
}

---

This results in segmentation fault. What's the way out?

Qt: 4.8.1

QDeclarativeView is a widget. Widgets need a QApplication instance. You have a QCoreApplication instance.
