I test it out, it work as long as the function is a direct function access,
you can't use module call like
MySingleton.myqsTr("My String") // don't work, lupdate does get this one
myqsTr("My String") // work
Could have put the function into it's own javascript .pragma library and
just import it in needed file. Is their a way to declare a global
javascript function into the engine with the binding still working? I just
don't want to add the function on each file if possible:
*function myqsTr(str) { return qsTr(str) + I18n.revaluate; }*
I may try to add the function into the RootItem of the QQuickView and hope
the context hierarchies will always find it everywhere to see if this work.
That's so close to work well...
