Integrating native functionality with QT Webkit ?

[RahulRaj]

Does QT webkit allows to have a hybrid model in which the web content can interact with natve cpp code ?

In short, does it follow 'Phone gap' like model, or is it just a web content render-er alone ?

It does.

See:

• http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.1/qtwebkit/qtwebkit-bridge.html
• http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.1/qtwebkit/qwebframe.html#

I did it this way:

• create a subclass QObject
• expose your properties/methods by using Q_PROPERTY / Q_INVOKABLE
• make an instance of your class available by calling addToJavaScriptWindowObject(name, pointer_to_your_object) on a QWebFrame instance.
• and if you want your object to be available all the times (e.g. after page reload), call addToJavaScriptWindowObject every time the QWebFrame::javaScriptWindowObjectCleared signal is emitted.

I hope this helped.
