I have this class:
class JavaScript : public QObject {
Q_OBJECT
public:
JavaScript();
bool executeFromFile(QString file);
bool enabled;
public slots:
void setEnabled( bool enabled );
bool isEnabled() const;
private:
QScriptEngine engine;
};
The methods are defined like this:
#include "javascript.h"
JavaScript::JavaScript() {
executeFromFile("test.js");
}
bool JavaScript::executeFromFile(QString file) {
QFile scriptFile(file);
if (!scriptFile.open(QIODevice::ReadOnly)) return false;
QTextStream stream(&scriptFile);
QString contents = stream.readAll();
scriptFile.close();
engine.evaluate(contents, file);
return true;
}
void JavaScript::setEnabled( bool enabled ) {
JavaScript::enabled = enabled;
}
bool JavaScript::isEnabled() const {
return enabled;
}
I’m trying to access the public slots previously defined in the header file like the documentation says:
http://doc.qt.digia.com/qt/scripting.html#making-a-c-object-available-to-scripts-written-in-qtscript
The test.js file looks like this, just like the examples of the docs:
var obj = new JavaScript();
obj.setEnabled( true );
print( "obj is enabled: " + obj.isEnabled() );
But i’m not getting anything. It seems it doesn’t find the JavaScript object. What am I missing?
Doing a simple
print(1+1)
works just fine.
EDIT: An example in the qt4 webpage implements Q_PROPERTY. I tried this, but got the same result:
Q_PROPERTY(bool enabled READ isEnabled WRITE setEnabled)
EDIT 1: Tried implementing the initializer like this:
// javascript.h:
JavaScript(QObject *parent = 0);
// javascript.cpp:
JavaScript::JavaScript(QObject *parent) : QObject(parent) {}
Still nothing...
EDIT 2: Some examples inherits from QScriptable
too:
class JavaScript : public QObject, public QScriptable {}
But that makes no difference either.
You need to create QScriptClass instead of QObject. Qt contains example of how to extend script capabilites in Qt. Take a look on Custom Script Class Example
