Embed qwidget in QML.

[Feanoreal]

Hello!

I have my own widget, where I reimplemented paintEvent, mouseMoveEvent and etc, "here":http://qt-project.org/forums/viewthread/7893 is the answer to my question for Qt 4.7, but what is the way to embed qwidget in QtQuick 2 (Qt 5.1)?

Thanks.

There is no official way to embed QWidget in QML right now. The best way is to port the widget to a QQuickPaintedItem or use Qt Quick Controls to replace widget functionality in your application.

There is however a way to embed Qt Quick inside a widget by means of QWidget::createWindowContainer

Hello, Jens. Reading docs I've found that we can reimplement updatePaintNode function too. Isn't that approach is better?

That depends on your use case. If you are showing pure 3d geometry then yes, but most normal widgets are a lot easier to port by using QQuickPaintedItem.
