• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: WORKSFORME
• Component: WebKit Qt

simple test case

Using this week's Qt5 defined hash (11bdb40bfda68291b9767b7908a2ab7dc3b75786) and WebKit2 trunk (http://svn.webkit.org/repository/webkit/trunk@102706), I can't run qmlscene with a simple qml file containing only a WebView.

The error output says: "QWidget: Cannot create a QWidget when no GUI is being used".

Backtrace from running 'qmlscene test_case.qml' points that the last WebKit-related code ran is from WebKit::QtViewportInteractionEngine::scroller(), called by reset(), called by the ctor, as shown below:

[Lauro Moura Maranhao Neto]

I'm getting this error both on the desktop and maemo 6. Even a simple QGuiApplication + QQuickView loading the qml file is enough to trigger the error.

Will be fixed when we move to QFlickable

[Kenneth Rohde Christiansen]

If you turn on the desktop mode I guess it should work

Yes, that is true.

So this is a known issue?
Kenneth, could you elaborate a bit more on this? I'm not fully aware of what is going on behind this "move to QFlickable", so I don't really get why this is the fix for this regression.

Thanks!

[Jesus Sanchez-Palencia]

I believe this was recently fixed.
