How to use QJSEngine to access a child of a QObject in js script?

rickluo

Signals and slots, properties and children of object are available as properties of the created QJSValue.

So I expect to access the children of a QObject, but I do not find the right way to do it.

I have code as below:

    QWidget parent;
    QLabel label(&parent);
    label.setText("Hello World");
    QJSEngine engine;
    QJSValue jsv = engine.newQObject(&parent);

    engine.globalObject().setProperty("w", jsv);

    qDebug() << engine.evaluate("JSON.stringify(w);").toString();

   // qDebug() << engine.evaluate("w.myLabel.text").toString(); // Does not work, how to access myLabel.text in script

The debug output is as below, and I cannot find the child label information (eg. the text "Hello World") in this output. So, my question is how to access the QLabel (objectName: "myLabel") in js script?

    "objectName": "",
    "modal": false,
    "windowModality": 0,
    "enabled": true,
