[SOLVED] I can't import one qml file into another, the same reflection in CMake when setting up a Qt QML project

I can't import one qml file into another, the same reflection in CMake when setting up a Qt QML project

When I just create a project and write cmake, everything goes well, when I start adding new qml files and then perform the configuration, then 2 warnings come out:

 CMake Warning (dev) at /home/zxctatar/Qt/6.8.0/gcc_64/lib/cmake/Qt6Core/Qt6CoreMacros.cmake:3378 (message):
  Qt policy QTP0004 is not set: You need qmldir files for each extra
  directory that contains .qml files for your module.  Check
  https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qt-cmake-policy-qtp0004.html for policy details.
  Use the qt_policy command to set the policy and suppress this warning.

I already followed this link, but I didn’t find any useful information for myself (maybe I was looking poorly), but I realized that the whole point is in qmldir, I struggled with it for a long time, but nothing came of it anyway, at the moment the CMake file and The file locations look like this:

There is also a problem with importing one qml file into another, in this case Colors in LoginWindow, when I specify the path to the file, the project is built, but when launched it gives the following error:

qrc:/qt/qml/Client/src/view/loginwindow/LoginWindow.qml:3:1: "../../styles/Colors.qml": no such directory

LoginWindow.qml

import QtQuick 2.15
import QtQuick.Controls
import "../../styles/Colors.qml" as Colors

ApplicationWindow {
    visible: true

    color: Colors.backgroundColor
}

Colors.qml

pragma Singleton
import QtQuick 2.15

QtObject {
    property color backgroundColor: "#DDEFFF"
}

I also tried to use qmldir files and qrc, but nothing worked, maybe I did something wrong

I’m still trying to figure out QML and CMake, I spent almost two days searching for the problem, so if this is a stupid situation, don’t be strict, I’ll be grateful for any help

UPDATE

I built the project provided in Qt (calqlatr), it also gives exactly the same warnings.

Also when I changed these lines in CMakeLists.txt:

qt_standard_project_setup(REQUIRES 6.5)
qt_add_executable(appClient
    src/main.cpp
)
qt_add_qml_module(appClient
    URI Client
    VERSION 1.0
    QML_FILES

        QML_FILES src/view/loginwindow/LoginWindow.qml
        QML_FILES src/styles/Colors.qml
)

for these:

qt6_standard_project_setup(REQUIRES 6.5)
qt6_add_executable(appClient
    src/main.cpp
)
qt6_add_qml_module(appClient
    URI Client
    VERSION 1.0
    QML_FILES

        QML_FILES src/view/loginwindow/LoginWindow.qml
        QML_FILES src/styles/Colors.qml
)

then this line no longer appears:

/home/zxctatar/Qt/6.8.0/gcc_64/lib/cmake/Qt6Qml/Qt6QmlMacros.cmake:1148 
    (qt6_add_qml_module)

Solution

I see you are using QT 6.8.0. In that case add:

qt_policy(SET QTP0004 NEW)

to your CMakelists.txt file, inbetween "qt_add_executable" and "qt _add_qml_module" sections. That should solve the warnings. (https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qt-cmake-policy-qtp0004.html)

As for the Color.qml import. You might try adding it as a module instead of a relative path.
