how to expose subclass methods to qml

[srikanth2006]

Hi I have a main class which has instances of many subclasses. I would like to expose all methods of class and its instances of subclasess to QML.
Similar Question like below but the answer received not working.

Define "not working", that's not a good diagnosis.

Show us your code.

of many subclasses.

Just in case, please note that the example for the link you posted has no "subclassing" action at all, i.e. SubClass is not a subclass of MainClass, they're both subclasses of QObject.

class MainClass: QObject
{
   Q_OBJECT
   Subclass subclass;
   MainClass();

}

class Subclass:QObject
{
  Q_Object
  Subclass();

  public slots:
  void someMethod();
}

Hi ,
Sorry I will reframe my question with some code below:
So I have a mainWindowClass and DeviceManagerclass. In mainWindowclass I instantiate object of deviceManagerClass. like below:

#include "devicemanagerdialog.h"
class MainWindow : public QObject
{
Q_OBJECT
public:
explicit MainWindow(QObject *parent = nullptr);
~MainWindow();
//Some signals and some slots etc
DeviceManagerDialog *deviceManagerDialogObj = new DeviceManagerDialog();
}

IN QML main cpp
#include <QQmlContext>
#include "mainwindow.h"
MainWindow mainWindow_C_QML;
QGuiApplication app(argc, argv);

QQmlApplicationEngine engine;
engine.rootContext()->setContextProperty("mainWindowQML",&mainWindow_C_QML);

So I expected in main.qml that deviceManagerDialogObj and itsmethods are exposed. However I can only mainWindowQML methods but not like mainWindowQML.deviceManagerDialogObj->...

My question is how can I access deviceManagerDialogObj and all its methods instantied in mainWindow class . I hope it is clear? Thanks

@srikanth2006 said in how to expose subclass methods to qml:

mainWindowQML.deviceManagerDialogObj

You won't access such component not in QML or even in C++ because:

...
private:
DeviceManagerDialog *deviceManagerDialogObj = new DeviceManagerDialog();
}

you made it a private member of MainWindow!

You will need to provide getter(s) for such element.

ah yes sorry that was public. It is not private. It is typo.
I cant access them even when it is public. I hope it is possible?
