[Interest] QML Values to enum name

[Jérôme Godbout]

We personnaly expose another property into those case (in your WebSockets
C++ class):

Q_PROPERTY(QVarianMap enumToStringMap READ enum_to_string CONST);

QVarianMap WebSockets::enum_to_string()
{
  return QVariantMap {
    std::make_pair<int, QString>(WebSockets::Connecting,
QString("Connecting"))
    , std::make_pair<int, QString>(WebSockets::Open, QString("Open"))
    ...
  };
}

This way you can convert to string easily and access it too with the string:

property string myValue: myWebSocketsId.enumToStringMap[myIntValue]

you can even go the other way

property int myInt: WebSockets["Open"]

or even:

function printAllValue()
{
   for(key in myWebSocketsId.enumToStringMap)
   {
      console.log(key.toString() + " : " + myWebSocketsId.
enumToStringMap[key]);
   }
}

This make it way easier to deal with enum and available value.
