Qt OPC UA
The Qt OPC UA module implements a Qt API to interact with OPC UA servers on top of the open62541 library.
The QML API has been marked as deprecated in Qt 6.9 and will be removed in a future version.
Using the Module
QML API
The QML types are available through the QtOpcUa
import. To use the types, add the following import statement to your .qml file:
import QtOpcUa as QtOpcUa
C++ API
Using the C++ API requires linking against the module library, either directly or through other dependencies. Several build tools have dedicated support for this, including CMake and qmake.
Building with CMake
Use the find_package()
command to locate the needed module components in the Qt6 package:
find_package(Qt6 REQUIRED COMPONENTS OpcUa) target_link_libraries(mytarget Qt::OpcUa)
Building with qmake
To configure the module for building with qmake, add the module as a value of the QT variable in the project's .pro file:
QT += opcua
