Hello,

I want to load the images from the photos folder in my app.

So I am fetching all the files from that directory and passing the image path to my ImageViewSource as QUrl.

but its giving me erroe as Invalid URL.

I am trying this from last 3 hours. but still not succeded.

My code

    qml->setContextProperty("app", this);
    QDir home = QDir::current();
    QString path(home.path());
    path.append(QDir::separator()).append("shared/photos");
    path = QDir::toNativeSeparators(path);
    qDebug() << "path" << home.rootPath() << home.currentPath()
            << home.homePath();
    home = QDir(path);
    qDebug() << home.absolutePath();
    if (home.exists()) {
        qDebug() << "exist";
        home.setFilter(QDir::Files);
        QStringList _listoffiles = home.entryList();
        qDebug() << "total files" << _listoffiles.size();
        _image_path = new QList<QString>();
        _image_path->append(_listoffiles);
        _currentIndex = 0;
    }

    AbstractPane *root = qml->createRootNode<AbstractPane>();
    _centerImage = root->findChild<ImageView*>("imageViewID");
    qDebug() << "image path" << _image_path->at(_currentIndex);
    path.append(QDir::separator()).append(_image_path->at(_currentIndex));
    path = QDir::toNativeSeparators(path);
    qDebug() << "url path " << path;
    if (QFile::exists(path)) {
        qDebug() << "file exist";
//        QUrl url = QUrl::fromLocalFile("asset:///images/Tulips.jpg");
        QUrl url = QUrl::fromLocalFile(path);
        qDebug() << url.errorString() << url.toLocalFile();

        if (_centerImage != NULL) {            
            _centerImage->setImageSource(url);


            qDebug() << "center image";
        }

    }
    Application::setScene(root);

Thanks in advance,

QDir home = QDir::current();
returns the root directory for your application (which is /accounts/1000/appdata/=DEPENDS OF APP ID HASH=/data).

Use this:

QDir home("/accounts/1000/shared/");
home.cd("/accounts/1000/shared/"); <-- OPTIONAL

Hello

thanks for the suggestion.

But first I had used only this then I had tried with home directory.

But there is no difference in error.

Which line fails now ?

[bskania]

QUrl url = QUrl::fromLocalFile(path);
qDebug() << url.errorString() << url.toLocalFile();

I don't un derstand. Is the last line problematic?

I am usually using (example):
cout << " - " << reply->errorString().toUtf8().constData();

[bskania]

I am still getting error message in url.errorString() as Invalid Url while I am passing the local file address,
I had posted my code in my first post.

bskania.

Hi bskania,

did you have any luck with this? Perhaps there is an issue with your path? Did you already check url before qDebug?

There is a Knowledge Base article about this, within some functions to get the dir, image path, etc...

Hope this helps.

Hello..I don't know which is the problem exactly. But Today I ran same function again and its now working perfectly. Same code is working.

I had read already this document before creating the URL.

Thanks for your help.
