\title Inheritance Cycle
\brief A component inherits from itself.
\section1 Component Is Part Of An Inheritance Cycle
\section2 What happened?
A component inherited directly or indirectly from itself.
Usually, Components can inherit properties, methods, signals and enums from other components.
If a component inherits itself directly or indirectly through another base component, then
it forms an inheritance cycle. The warning indicates that the current component is inside an
inheritance cycle, see \l{#example}{Example}.
\section2 Why is this bad?
Components with inheritance cycles will not be created at runtime: they will be null instead.
\section2 Example
\qml
import QtQuick
Item {
component Cycle: Cycle {} // not ok: directly inherits from itself
component C: C2 {} // not ok: indirectly inherits from itself
component C2: C{}
}
\endqml
You can fix this warning by breaking up the inheritance cycle
\qml
import QtQuick
Item {
component Cycle: Item {} // ok: does not inherit from itself
component C: C2 {} // ok: does not indirectly inherits from itself anymore
component C2: Cycle{}
}
\endqml
