QT5 Baidu map development and learning - Preparation

1. Environmental construction

First of all, it should be clear why MSVC environment is used when QT and Baidu map API are used, because the compiler MinGW of QT does not have webenginewidgets module (that's why). However, this environment is not well configured. Recently, this problem bothered me for a while. Finally, I found this to configure, and the pro test is available. QT5.14 build MSVC(VS2017) x86 and 64 bit compiler development environment (GDB configuration)

2 map preparation

Similarly, when loading online maps, many versions are QtWebkit used by the old version before QT5.6, not a new version. Here, I found the introduction of several modules of QT loading web page.

modularintroduce
QtWebkitBefore Qt5.6, the QtWebkit component was used, but after Qt5.6, the QtWebkit component was removed
QAxWidgetmingw versions after Qt5.6 can only use QAxWidget control because QtWebkit is removed and QtWebEngine cannot be used
QtWebEngineThe MSVC version after Qt5.6 introduces the chrome based browser engine QtWebEngine

The QtWebEngine module is used in this paper. First, you need to register to get Baidu map API (obtained by Baidu map api) . Download qwebchannel.js (there is this directly in a document I refer to. Copy and paste notepad and change the name.) Put the file in the root directory (no changes are required).
Create a Baidu map API document and put it into the baidu map.html document (the name can be self drawn, which corresponds to the code document). Note that the secret key in Baidu map.html document should be changed to its own.

Baidu map.html document code:

In fact, the most troublesome thing is the environment construction. When the environment is successfully built, you can prepare baidu.html and qwebchannel.js, and you can prepare for code learning in the next step. There are also some difficulties in the communication between QT5 and JS, which will explain how to use these two documents in the next part.

Although the road is endless and faraway, I still want to pursue the truth in the world.

For your convenience, I'll post the qwebchannel.js code directly.

"use strict";

var QWebChannelMessageTypes = {

    disconnectFromSignal: 8,
    setProperty: 9,
    response: 10,
};

var QWebChannel = function(transport, initCallback)
{
    if (typeof transport !== "object" || typeof transport.send !== "function") {
        console.error("The QWebChannel expects a transport object with a send function and onmessage callback property." +
                      " Given is: transport: " + typeof(transport) + ", transport.send: " + typeof(transport.send));

    }

    var channel = this;

    this.send = function(data)
    {
        if (typeof(data) !== "string") {

        channel.transport.send(data);
    }

    this.transport.onmessage = function(message)
