How to register and access C++ class methods in QML

@raven-worx
when it doesn't work, there is definitely an error/notice. Check the console.

when we try to add new method try to access it in main.qml...like u said it is not appearing in auto-popup

@Sushma_MP
i don't know exactly when QtCreator updates it's completion model.
But closing and reopening the project should trigger it.

@raven-worx
how is it possible then...everytime we can't close and reopen Qt creator rite...is it a bug...??

In Qt Creator did you try to call [Tools]->[QML/JS]->Reset Code Model, after you compiled your cpp class?

i wasn't talking about restarting the whole QtCreator process, but only close and reopen the project.
The problem is, when is the right time to update the code-completion model?

import QtQuick 2.4
import QtQuick.Controls 1.3
import QtQuick.Window 2.2
import QtQuick.Dialogs 1.2

@Sushma_MP
selectsong is not a valid property of ApplicationWindow type.
QML types must start with an Uppercase-Letter to distinguish them from properties as you can see in your error.

[Sushma_MP]

ohh but selectsong is my cpp class name

[Sushma_MP]

thank you soo much i got the solution by taking it as uppercase letter as you said...

you can also leave the class name, but register it with a upper case name should also work.
