Member Function Documentation

QQmlContext::QQmlContext(QQmlEngine *engine, QObject *parent = nullptr)

Create a new QQmlContext as a child of engine's root context, and the QObject parent.

QQmlContext::QQmlContext(QQmlContext *parentContext, QObject *parent = nullptr)

Create a new QQmlContext with the given parentContext, and the QObject parent.

[override virtual] QQmlContext::~QQmlContext()

Destroys the QQmlContext.

Any expressions, or sub-contexts dependent on this context will be invalidated, but not destroyed (unless they are parented to the QQmlContext object).

QUrl QQmlContext::baseUrl() const

Returns the base url of the component, or the containing component if none is set.

See also setBaseUrl().

QObject *QQmlContext::contextObject() const

Return the context object, or 0 if there is no context object.

See also setContextObject().

QVariant QQmlContext::contextProperty(const QString &name) const

Returns the value of the name property for this context as a QVariant.

See also setContextProperty().

QQmlEngine *QQmlContext::engine() const

Return the context's QQmlEngine, or 0 if the context has no QQmlEngine or the QQmlEngine was destroyed.

bool QQmlContext::isValid() const

Returns whether the context is valid.

To be valid, a context must have a engine, and it's contextObject(), if any, must not have been deleted.

QString QQmlContext::nameForObject(QObject *object) const

Returns the name of object in this context, or an empty string if object is not named in the context. Objects are named by setContextProperty(), or by ids in the case of QML created contexts.

If the object has multiple names, the first is returned.

QQmlContext *QQmlContext::parentContext() const

Return the context's parent QQmlContext, or 0 if this context has no parent or if the parent has been destroyed.

QUrl QQmlContext::resolvedUrl(const QUrl &src)

Resolves the URL src relative to the URL of the containing component.

See also QQmlEngine::baseUrl() and setBaseUrl().

void QQmlContext::setBaseUrl(const QUrl &baseUrl)

Explicitly sets the url resolvedUrl() will use for relative references to baseUrl.

Calling this function will override the url of the containing component used by default.

See also baseUrl() and resolvedUrl().

void QQmlContext::setContextObject(QObject *object)

Set the context object.

See also contextObject().

void QQmlContext::setContextProperties(const QVector<QQmlContext::PropertyPair> &properties)

Set a batch of properties on this context.

Setting all properties in one batch avoids unnecessary refreshing expressions, and is therefore recommended instead of calling setContextProperty() for each individual property.

This function was introduced in Qt 5.11.

See also QQmlContext::setContextProperty().

void QQmlContext::setContextProperty(const QString &name, QObject *value)

Set the value of the name property on this context.

QQmlContext does not take ownership of value.

See also contextProperty().

void QQmlContext::setContextProperty(const QString &name, const QVariant &value)

Set a the value of the name property on this context.
