Image loading

[Stanfillirenfro]

Hi!

I am trying to get the path top a QImage for my application.
I did as followd:

QPixmap image;
 
    image.load(QCoreApplication::applicationDirPath() + "/Desktop/myImage");

QPixmap image;

    image.load(QCoreApplication::applicationDirPath() + "/Desktop/myImage");

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

My problem is that I can not load any image.

What could be the problem? I will appreciate any help.

Many thanks in advance.

Where is the image name ? "myImage.png" , myImage.jpg ?? which one ?

Also what is the output of QCoreApplication::applicationDirPath() ?

Many thanks aamer4yu for your reply.
The image name should be myImage.png.
Have a look please. When I proceed as followed, I do not need to add ".png", and I can have the image loaded. But I do not want to go this way.

image.load("C:/Users/Desktop/myImage");

image.load("C:/Users/Desktop/myImage");

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

Even by writing myImage.png, there is no change.

I have created a label on which th image should appear as followed:

m_image = new QLabel(this);
    m_image->setPixmap(myImage);

m_image = new QLabel(this);
    m_image->setPixmap(myImage);

Are you sure you know what QCoreApplication::applicationDirPath() returns ?

[Stanfillirenfro]

Thanks Lesiok!

Yes, QCoreApplication::applicationDirPath() returns the directory that contains the application executable.

[aamer4yu]

Please put a qDebug() for QCoreApplication::applicationDirPath() value...

[Stanfillirenfro]

Thanks aamer4you for your reply.

I am instead trying to proceed like this:

QDir dir;
dir.setCurrent("C:/Users/File/Desktop/imageFile");
image.load(dir + "/myImage");

QDir dir;
dir.setCurrent("C:/Users/File/Desktop/imageFile");
image.load(dir + "/myImage");

This does not function. Could you please have a lokk and give me an advice?

Many thanks in advance.

Can You show us what is FULL path to file myImage and what is result of QCoreApplication::applicationDirPath() ?

Hi Lesiok!
Of courses!

The initial idea was to load different images from a list, each image being represented by its name. So I had to get to the file in which the images are stored and to select an image. To be able to change the name of each image in the path, I thought I could use QCoreApplication::applicationDirPath(), but unfortunately I failed.

I finally proceed as followed:

QStringList listImages;
QString str = "C:/Users/File/Desktop/imageFile/";
 
for(int i = 0; i<listImages.size(); i++)
{ if(listImages[i])
str.append(listImages[i])
image.load(str);
 
m_image = new QLabel(this);
m_image->setPixmap(image);

QStringList listImages;
QString str = "C:/Users/File/Desktop/imageFile/";

for(int i = 0; i<listImages.size(); i++)
{ if(listImages[i])
str.append(listImages[i])
image.load(str);

m_image = new QLabel(this);
m_image->setPixmap(image);

On this way I could solve my problem.

Thanks for your attention.
