QVector<int> not working as model?

tmnku

Hi,
I have a simple class that holds a QVector<int> as a Q_PROPERTY and I expose this class to QML using setContextProperty. I want to use the vector as a model inside a Repeater but I noticed that even though my QML code can access the data (I can print it to the console) the repeater does not generate any elements. So my question is: do I have to create my own models using QAbstractItemModel even for basic types like QVector<int> which Qt is capable of converting from c++ to js?
I then found this example where they put a QStringList in a QVariant so I tried the same with a QList<int> but still it did not work.
Here is the class which I expose to QML:
MyClass.h:

class MyClass : public QObject {
    Q_OBJECT
    Q_PROPERTY(QVariant mydata READ mydata WRITE setMydata NOTIFY
     mydataChanged)

signals:
     void mydataChanged();

public:
    MyClass(QObject* parent = nullptr);
    QVariant mydata();
    void setMydata(QVariant data);
    QList<int> mydata_;
};

MyClass.cpp

MyClass::MyClass(QObject* parent) : QObject(parent), mydata_({1,2,3,4}) {
}

QVariant MyClass::mydata() {
    return QVariant::fromValue(mydata_);
}

void MyClass::setMydata(QVariant data) {
    mydata_ = data.value<QList<int>>();
    emit mydataChanged();
}

The QML file simply draws a rectangle for each element in the model (works fine when I replace model data with an integer like model: 5)

Repeater {
        model: myclass.mydata
        Rectangle {
            x: index*20
            y: 0
            width: 10
            height: 10
            color: "red"
        }
    }

In case I'm doing it all wrong: what would be the fastest way to create a model which only holds integers?
Thank you very much.

use the "length" property as model. an access the elements in the delegate component via the "index" variable

Thank you, that solved my problem!
