As you write code, Qt Creator checks code syntax. When Qt Creator spots a syntax error in your code it underlines it and shows error details when you move the mouse pointer over the error. Similarly, when you are working on an instance of a JavaScript object notation (JSON) entity, Qt Creator underlines errors in JSON data structure.
In the following screenshot, Qt Creator points out an error, because a semicolon is missing at the end of the line:
In the following screenshot, Qt Creator issues a warning, because the variable is not used:
To modify the colors used for underlining errors and warnings, select 工具 > Options > 文本编辑器 > Font & Colors > Copy , and select new colors for Error and 警告 .
When using the Clang code model, errors and warnings are additionally marked with icons and annotated. If a
Clang fix-it
is available, you can execute it by clicking the
icon and pressing
Enter
.
In the following screenshot, a Qt class name contains a typo:
You can use the icons in the tooltip popup to copy the error or warning message to the clipboard or to ignore and hide it. Select the Annotation Settings link to specify the position of the line annotations.
In the following screenshot, a semicolon is missing at the end of the line.
In the following screenshot, the variable is not used.
When writing QML or JavaScript code, the annotations may contain error codes listed in JavaScript and QML Error Codes .
To specify the position where the annotations are displayed, select 工具 > Options > 文本编辑器 > Display > Line annotations , and then select whether to display the annotations directly next to the code, aligned to the right of the code, or in the right margin. Showing annotations between lines can be useful if there is usually not enough space to display annotations next to the text.
If you hide the annotations by deselecting the check box, you can move the mouse pointer over an icon to view them.
You can run static checks on the QML and JavaScript code in your project to find common problems. To run the checks, select 工具 > QML/JS > Run Checks or press Ctrl+Shift+C . The results are shown in the QML and QML Analysis filters of the Issues output pane.
Many of the error messages are similar to the ones in Douglas Crockford's JSLint tool. For more information about JSLint errors, see JSLint Error Explanations .

Variables declared in a function are always visible everywhere in the function, even when declared in nested blocks or

Blocks do not affect variable scoping. Thus blocks that are not associated to

| M126 | 警告 |
==
and
!=
may perform type coercion, use
===
or
!==
to avoid it
|
The non-strict equality comparison is allowed to convert its arguments to a common type. That can lead to unexpected results such as
' \t\r\n' == 0
being true. Use the strict equality operators
===
and
!==
and be explicit about conversions you require.

If you change the build and run kit when you have QML files open in the code editor, the code model might become corrupt. The following error message indicates that this might have happened: Using Qt Quick 1 code model instead of Qt Quick 2 .
You can see the error message when you move the mouse pointer over code that Qt Creator underlines in the code editor or when you open a QML file in the Design mode.
To reset the code model, select 工具 > QML/JS > Reset Code Model .
If this does not help, try changing the QML emulation layer to the one that was built with the same Qt version as the one selected in the build and run kit. For more information, see Running QML Modules in Design Mode .
To inspect QML and JavaScript properties, methods, and enums, move the cursor over them and select 工具 > QML/JS > Inspect API for Element Under Cursor .
To automatically format QML/JS files upon saving, select 工具 > Options > Qt Quick > QML/JS Editing > Enable auto format on file save .
