    Default Crash in Qml destkop application.

    Hi,

    I'm working on a medium sized desktop application, where the UI is made with QML. At the leftside of the application, we have a toolbar with 4 buttons which determine in which layout you are working. Each layout has a different set of toolbars and a docking view(with docked windows inside and a 3d render window). When switching between the layouts, the toolbars change, the docking view changes (with different number of docked windows with different content) and the render window changes. Just to say that a lot changes when you switch between layouts. Once in a while, when switching between layouts, the application just crashes. I found a repeatable sequence of actions to make it crash, but I'm completely lost where to go from here. At the moment I change the layout, i set a context property to a new pointer which triggers all the updates and at one point somewhere deep in qt5qml.dll an assert is triggered. The complete call stack (from VS2013) looks as follows:

    I know it's kinda long shot, but is there anybody who has an idea what could be the problem, or how I could find a starting point to look further. I already when through the call stack and checked some members to see if i could find a text or a class from my side, or a link to a qml file, but the only thing i see is internal qt code which I'm totally not familiar with.

    I narrowed the problem down a little bit. In each layout we have something called a viewmanager. It's basically a tabview with a tab for each type of item in the scene which are important for that layout. The model for the tabView is a

    Qt Code: 
    1. Q_PROPERTY(QQmlListProperty<ViewManagerTabQMLInterface> tabsList		READ getTabsList									NOTIFY tabsListChanged);
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 


    the member QList is a

    Qt Code: 
    1. QList<ViewManagerTabQMLInterface*>		_tabsList;
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    the implementation for getting the tabs is like this:
    Qt Code: 
    1. //--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    2. /// Returns the tablist
    3. //--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    4.  
    5. QQmlListProperty<ViewManagerTabQMLInterface> ViewManagerQMLInterface::getTabsList()
    6. {
    7. 	return QQmlListProperty<ViewManagerTabQMLInterface>(this, 0, &appendTab, &tabCount, &tabAt, &tabClear);
    8. }
    9.  
    10. //--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    11. /// Appends a tab
    12. //--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    13.  
    14. void ViewManagerQMLInterface::appendTab(QQmlListProperty<ViewManagerTabQMLInterface>* list, ViewManagerTabQMLInterface* p) {
    15. 	ViewManagerQMLInterface* vm = qobject_cast<ViewManagerQMLInterface*>(list->object);
    16. 	if (vm && p) {
    17. 		vm->_tabsList.append(p);
    18. 		emit vm->tabsListChanged();
    19. 	}
    20. }
    21.  
    22. //--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    23. /// Returns the number of tabs
    24. //--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    25.  
    26. int ViewManagerQMLInterface::tabCount(QQmlListProperty<ViewManagerTabQMLInterface>*list)
    27. {
    28. 	ViewManagerQMLInterface* vm = qobject_cast<ViewManagerQMLInterface*>(list->object);
    29. 	if (vm)
    30. 		return vm->_tabsList.count();
    31. 	return 0;
    32. }
    33.  
    34. //--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    35. /// Returns the tab at the given index
    36. //--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    37.  
    38. ViewManagerTabQMLInterface* ViewManagerQMLInterface::tabAt(QQmlListProperty<ViewManagerTabQMLInterface>* list, int i)
    39. {
    40. 	ViewManagerQMLInterface* vm = qobject_cast<ViewManagerQMLInterface*>(list->object);
    41. 	if (vm)
    42. 		return vm->_tabsList.at(i);
    43. 	return 0;
    44. }
    45.  
    46. //--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    47. /// Clears all the tabse
    48. //--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    49.  
    50. void ViewManagerQMLInterface::tabClear(QQmlListProperty<ViewManagerTabQMLInterface> *list)
    51. {
    52. 	ViewManagerQMLInterface* vm = qobject_cast<ViewManagerQMLInterface*>(list->object);
    53. 	if (vm){
    54. 		vm->_tabsList.clear();
    55. 		emit vm->tabsListChanged();
    56. 	}
    57. }
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    It seems like it has something to do with this. I found that the QQmlAdaptorModel is the model for the tabview...
    It also seems that it tries to create the tabs from the tabmodel from the previous layout after the new layout became active....
    Anyone can help me further?

    Default Re: Crash in Qml destkop application.

    Are those viewmanager instances available through out the program or do they get creates/deleted on demand?

    Do you have any Q_INVOKABLE methods that return instances of QObject derived classes?

    Cheers,

    Default Re: Crash in Qml destkop application.

    Hi,

    they are available through the entire lifetime of the application (the tabs are stored per layout in a QList<std::shared_ptr>. I have one Q_INVOKABLE method that returns a pointer to the tab.

    Qt Code: 
    1. Q_INVOKABLE ViewManagerTabQMLInterface* getTab(int index);
    2.  
    3. //--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    4. /// Returns the tab model from the given index.
    5. //--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    6.  
    7. ViewManagerTabQMLInterface* ViewManagerQMLInterface::getTab(int index)
    8. {
    9. 	if(index >= 0 && index < (int)_tabsList.size())
    10. 	{
    11. 		return _tabsList[index].get();
    12. 	}
    13. 	return NULL;
    14. }
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    I see that at one point the destructor of the ViewManagerTabQMLInterface is called after a QDeleteDefferedEvent (just reading from the call stack).

    Do those objects have a QObject parent?
    Or, alternatively, have they been marked as owned by C++ using QQmlEngine::setObjectOwnership()?

    Yes, they have a qobject parent, and yes, at one point they get deleted. I removed the passing of those objects via qml to my other class and now they stay alive.
    Thanks you very much for the tips!!!!
