How to create a simplest qwebsocket android service in qt?

[shujaatak]

Even when I include QT += websockets in server.pro the app crashes as soon as it starts running! I am clueless whether it is possible or not to use qwebsocket in an android service? I have used the proper permissions i.e.:

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WAKE_LOCK"/>
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED"/>
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE"/>

It's enough for me if I succeed to run the following two lines of code in the service:

QWebSocket webSocket;
webSocket.open(QUrl(QStringLiteral("ws://demos.kaazing.com/echo")));
