Path to image in xcassets folder (iOS)

JRohner

Hi!

Hope you can help me with this... I have a large number of images that i want to use in an iOS app. Adding them to a .qrc does not work ("xcode build failed"), so i made a .xcassets file in xcode to which I want to add images. However, no images are shown when running on an iPhone (but it does work in the simulator). I followed the advice here.

How do i find the correct path to my images?

Thanks in advance!

My .pro file:

QT       += core gui multimediawidgets

greaterThan(QT_MAJOR_VERSION, 4): QT += widgets

TARGET = AssetsTest
TEMPLATE = app


SOURCES += main.cpp\
        mainwindow.cpp

HEADERS  += mainwindow.h

FORMS    += mainwindow.ui

ios {
    assets_catalogs.files = $$files($$PWD/*.xcassets)
    QMAKE_BUNDLE_DATA += assets_catalogs
}

And my .cpp file:

#include "mainwindow.h"
#include "ui_mainwindow.h"

MainWindow::MainWindow(QWidget *parent) :
    QMainWindow(parent),
    ui(new Ui::MainWindow)
{
    ui->setupUi(this);

    QPixmap pixmap("//Users/JCROHNER/Programmering/QT Projekt/AssetsTest/Media.xcassets/Photo 2014-05-10 11 33 08.imageset/Photo 2014-05-10 11 33 08.jpg");
    ui->label->setPixmap(pixmap);

}

Hi,

You hardcoded the path to your image on your computer so it won't be valid at all on your device. You should rather use QCoreApplication::applicationDirPath and move to the right folder from there.

Tanks a lot! Your suggestion solved my problem.

Here is the code that works:

    QString path = QCoreApplication::applicationDirPath() + "/Photo 2014-05-10 11 33 08.jpg";
    QPixmap pixmap(path);
    ui->label->setPixmap(pixmap);
