Segmentation fault on QQuickView::rootObject()

Ok, so, what I’m doing is I have an object QmlGui that has a member QQuickView view, here’s the constructor of QmlGui: QmlGui::QmlGui() {     view.setSource(QUrl::fromLocalFile(bin_dir + "/qml/main.qml")); // Set QML source     view.setResizeMode(QQuickView::SizeRootObjectToView);     view.show(); } At another point I have:     QmlGui *qmlGui = new QmlGui(); Then later, after entering the main Qt loop, there is a call to a function containing the following:     printf("TEST A\n");     QObject *view_obj = qmlGui->view.rootObject();     printf("TEST B\n");     QObject *firstRunDialog = view_obj->findChild<QObject*>("firstRunDialog");     printf("TEST C\n");     bool result = QMetaObject::invokeMethod(firstRunDialog, "firstRun", Qt::DirectConnection);     printf("%d\n", result);     if(result) return 0; And it segfaults on the line “QObject *view_obj = qmlGui->view.rootObject();”, I don’t understand why it’s segfaulting here, it really shouldn’t be, qmlGui is in scope, so it’s not like this function doesn’t know about it, qmlGui->view has been fully created/initialized, I have used gdb and it only shows me the line where it segfaults. Any help is appreciated, thanks
