Could not find executable

[jeff28]

Hi I just created an custom qml extension plugin on QtCreator (Windows). When I run this empty project a window opens and says that "Could not find executable please specify one" What shall I do I looked into every file in my project file but there is no .exe file? Can you help me plese?

Of course there is no executable. Since a plugin is shared library.

Ok, so how am I suppose to continue? insert my qml files and their header files and then just press CTRL+R?

Have you read this, this and this?

[jeff28]

Yes I know about these things. But I want to do something like the minehunt example. So I am trying to go over that. It has a main.cpp file that is why I am confused about extensions. That is the only one that uses QML Plugins and have a main.cpp file..

Where did you find "minehunt"? Where is a link?

EDIT: Got it.
The minehut doesn't use plugin extension, but it uses custom C++ classes.
So, you should decide what you need: QML Application or QML Plugin.

I need QML Plugin so I think I should continue with your example. Thank you very much for your help
