Hi,
AFAIK it might be that line that is wrong
>       Q_PROPERTY(QString mPlanStyle READ planStyle WRITE setPlanStyle)
mPlanStyle look like a variable name to me and it should be the  
property name, you might have better luck with
>       Q_PROPERTY(QString planStyle READ planStyle WRITE setPlanStyle)

Hope this helps
Samuel
