    Default Fatal Signal on invoke methode

    Hi all,
    I'm running into a strange problem:
    - I have a QObject which holds a list of items
    Qt Code:
    1. class CGrowersList : public QObject
    2. {
    3. Q_OBJECT
    4. ...
    5. QQmlListProperty<CGrower> growers();
    6. Q_INVOKABLE CGrower* byShortName(const QString& shortName) const;
    7. private:
    8. QList<CGrower*> m_growers;
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    - The CGrowerList item is published to qml via contextproperty in my main.cpp:
    Qt Code:
    1. CGrowersList growers;
    2. viewer.rootContext()->setContextProperty("growers", &growers);
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    - the m_growers are used as a model for list:
    Qt Code:
    1. QQmlListProperty<CGrower> CGrowersList::growers(){
    2. return QQmlListProperty<CGrower>(this, m_growers);
    3. }
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    this works so far so good.
    Problem appears when i try to invoke the methode "byShortName" from within the qml-code.
    Qt Code:
    1. CGrower* CGrowersList::byShortName(const QString& shortName) const {
    2. qDebug() << "enter by shortname: " << shortName;
    3. foreach (CGrower* item, m_growers) {
    4. if (item->shortName().compare(shortName) == 0){
    5. qDebug() << "return : " << item->name();
    6. return item;
    7. }
    8. }
    9. qDebug() << "return nullgrower: ";
    10. return m_nullGrower;
    11. }
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 
    It works 2-10 times and suddenly I get a Fatal signal 11 (SIGSEGV). The methode is entered
    correctly but when the methode tries to access its member (m_growers) it crashes.
    I call several methodes on the CGrowersList wrapper, e.g. sort, filter,... Everything works perfectly
    as long as I don't return a object. Same problem appears if I try to use a "at" function.
    Any ideas?

    Thx,
    Patrik

    Default Re: Fatal Signal on invoke methode

    When you return a QObject from a Q_INVOKABLE then the QML engine will assume that it is now the owner of the object and has to delete it.

    In your case you don't want that, you want to keep ownership with the C++ side.

    Qt Code:
    1. QQmlEngine::setObjectOwnership(item, QQmlEngine::CppOwnership);
    2. return item;
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    Cheers,
