[SOLVED]Q_PROPERTY QString linking qml and c++ giving "undefined" error

[Billcode]

This simple example should test the linking between QObject class property and qml. A string from TextInput should get displayed in a Rectangle on a mouse click. Instead, an error - Cannot assign [undefined] to QString - is delivered. Could anyonw help?

Q_PROPERTY(QString teamName READ getTeamName WRITE setTeamName NOTIFY nameChanged)

public: Data(QObject *parent = 0);

QString getTeamName() const;

"data":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtquick/qml-qtquick2-item.html#data-prop is one of the properties of the qml "Item":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtquick/qml-qtquick2-item.html component.

Try changing this:

@
w.rootContext()->setContextProperty("data", &d);
@

to this:

@
w.rootContext()->setContextProperty("dataProvider", &d);
@

Also, make sure you set your context property before creating your scene.

@
Data d;
// You must do this....
w.rootContext()->setContextProperty("dataProvider", &d);

// before doing this
w.setSource(QUrl::fromLocalFile("../subor1/Main.qml"));
@

Also, if you do not need to create an instance of your Data class from qml then maybe you should change this:

@
qmlRegisterType<Data>("NData", 1, 0, "Data");
@

to this:

@
qmlRegisterType<Data>();
@

Also, if the purpose of your Data class is to export data from c++ to qml only then have a look at the solution posted "here":http://qt-project.org/forums/viewthread/26191/. It shows you how to create a singleton class that is used to export data from c++ to qml. There is both a QQuick 1.0 and 2.0 solution.

Thanks a lot! It really works as supposed now. Thank You.
