Create QML or JavaScript Object in C++

[wade-J]

Hi,
As I see in "Interacting with QML Objects from C++":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/qtqml-cppintegration-interactqmlfromcpp.html, the way to Create QML Object in C++ is like this:

@ // Using QQmlComponent
QQmlEngine engine;
QQmlComponent component(&engine,
QUrl::fromLocalFile("MyItem.qml"));
QObject *object = component.create();
...
delete object;@

This is a static way as we must write a qml file in advance, how to create an qml object dynamically?
Maybe something like this: create("Rect")?

If so, we can register a C++ class, MyClass for example, to QML engine and use it in C++ like this create("MyClass"), right?

Is there any way to create JavaScript object in C++ directly?

You can use setData to create QML text dynamically.

QQmlEngine engine;
QQmlComponent component(&engine);
component.setData("import QtQuick 2.0\nText { text: "Hello world!" }", QUrl());
QQuickItem *item = qobject_cast<QQuickItem *>(component.create());

It should be possible to create the object in C++. When the myclass is C++ class itself, why do you want to register in QML and then create object in C++. You can as well create in C++ itself. May be I'm missing something here ?

Thanks for your reply, and your answer does help.In this way, component can eval the data, and create an object dynamically.Register c++ class into qml and then create qml object in c++ is just question, not for use.I will test that. Thanks again.

And another question:
Is that the only way to create qml object in c++,Is there any way to create JavaScript object in C++ directly without QML, do you have any idea?

If you want QML object, that is the only way. If are not worried about QML, you can check QScriptable module for JavaScript and C++ integration.
