[solved] Non-visual object in QML
-
Is it possible to make a non-visual QML component which holds properties and nested elements? I've tried the following code, but it's an error "Component elements may not contain properties other than id":
@
Component {
property int aProperty: 5
onAPropertyChanged: {
someCode();
}
NestedObject {
}
}
@I've also tried QtObject instead of Component, but there is another error with it: "Cannot assign to non-existent default property".
Item works fine, but it is visual. I don't need visual. -
A QtObject does not have a children property, which is why it cannot have nested elements. I guess you could create an element, e.g. MyQtObject, that is a QtObject with a children default property, just like Item, but with a list of MyQtObject instead of a list of Item. And then create your element using MyQtObject.

Thank you, ludde! Finally I've understood about default children property.
I changed my code to the following:
@
QtObject {
property int aProperty: 5
onAPropertyChanged: {
someCode();
}
property variant nested: NestedObject {
}
}
@It works!
