[Interest] Signals with QByteArray do not work in QML?

[Artem Sidyakin]

Worked fine for me:

signals:
    void someThing(QByteArray smthing);

emit someThing("christina hendricks");

...

#include "backend.h"

qmlRegisterType<Backend>("io.qt.Backend", 1, 0, "Backend");

...

import io.qt.Backend 1.0

Backend { id: backend }

Connections {
    target: backend
    onSomeThing: {
        console.log(smthing); // outputs "qml: christina hendricks"
    }
}

Also looks like you missed “s” in your “Connection”.
