I have created a custom table model Python class, subclassing the QAbstractTableModel and when I try to set the instance of this class, model, to the model property of the TableView, the whole app crashes. There are no error debug info in the terminal about what is causing the crash. I am using QML with version Qt 6.4 and PySide6.

print("Signal received from QML - Column Names:", col_names)

model = create_table_model_E1.create_model(row_names, col_names, False)

tableView.setProperty("model", model)

I tried creating the model, returning it to main.py, and then passing it to TableView using setProperty, directly, or by setting the property var userTableModel, and then setting this to the model property of TableView, but when the model cahnges, the whole app crashes. All these get done on runtime. I checked the tableView varible in main.py, and it is not a widget type(QTableView), it is QuickItemType(tableView.isQuickItemType() returns True) and thats all I could find about this. What am I missing? Why on changing the model from the existing to the newly created crashes the app?
In summary: I want to change the model of the TableView,on runtime, and when i do it, the app crashes.
Sorry for the long code blocks.
