How to access one checkbox in QML from .cpp in QT?

Recently, I got a small problem, which is accessing the checkbox in qml from cpp in QT. So the problem is quite simple: I have a main.qml file, which has a checkbox, I want to update the "checked" property to true or false based on the configuration that I saved in QSettings when I launch the application. Currently, I have successfully load the setting from QSettings in cpp file when application startup. Then how to modify the "checked" property in this cpp file?

I tried this :http://ift.tt/1RZRbiH and used the findChild function but it does not work.

1), I put import <QtQuick> in cpp file but i got error as QtQuick file can't be found.

2), I changed to "import <QtQuick/QQuickView>". Solved 1) but got new error for this line QObject* object = view.rootObject();:

cannot initialize a variable of type 'QObject *' with an rvalue of type 'QQuickItem *`

3), I changed QObject* object = view.rootObject(); this line to QQuickItem* object = view.rootObject(); and used QObject* acbox = object->findChild<QObject* >("acbox"); after that. (acbox is the objectName of that checkbox) Solved 2) but got new error:

Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:

Anyone has any suggestion? Thanks in advance!
