    I have these in main.cpp:

    int main(int argc, char *argv[])

    How do I get the provided parameters to my QML layer? Like, if my .exe is launched with a certain key and value, how is it possible to communicate this to the QML layer?

      I would do the argument parsing in C++, and just expose the relevant options to QML using a QObject with some properties.

        I think I found how to parse the arguments with QCoreApplication::arguments(). But how do I comminucate the parsed stuff to QML? QmlApplicationViewer->rootContext()->setContextProperty ?
