Creating ListElements Dynamically Outside Parent Component

Bongani

I have a component which i load

    Component{
        id:viewComp
        property alias compListMode: viewcompmodel

        Item{
            anchors.fill:parent
            id: mainItem

            ListView{
                id:viewcomplist
                model: viewcompmodel
                delegate: categoryDelegate
            }

            ListModel{
                id:viewcompmodel
            }

            Component {
                id: categoryDelegate
                Column {
                    width: 200

                    Rectangle {
                        id: categoryItem
                        border.color: "black"
                        border.width: 5
                        color: "white"
                        height: 50
                        width: 200

                        Text {
                            anchors.verticalCenter: parent.verticalCenter
                            x: 15
                            font.pixelSize: 24
                            text: Name
                        }
                    }

                }
            }
        }
    }

i need to dynamically create ListElements and SubElements for the "viewcompmodel" List Model outside of the component. How do i go about it ?

I tried

viewComp.compListMode.append(createListElement())

    function createListElement(elementname) {
        return {
            categoryName: elementname
        };
    }

and i get the Error :

Component objects cannot declare new properties

and when this also give me fatal errors :


    function createListElement(elementname) {
        return {
            Name: "elementname"
           ListElement{
                 name: "Somenam"
             }
        };
    }
