[Qt-qml] Change property of dynamically created component

[shiping.ji at nokia.com]

Hi,

That solves the problem. One more related question, does it mean that dynamically created QML objects (incl. e.g. the one created using QDeclarativeComponent::create()) will not have their id registered?

We've noticed the issue that once we load and attach such objects programmatically, future binding update to these newly created objects will not work as it complains the object with the given id is not found. This has nothing to do with the loader though. Please confirm and we will send some sample code if you believe it should work and there is something wrong in our side.

Thanks again.

BR,
Shiping

The id of a component does not become a new global identifier. i.e. "yellowRect" below:

    Component {
        id: yellowRectComponent
        Rectangle {
            id: yellowRect
            width: 100
            height: 100
            color: "yellow"
        }
    }

As you can imagine: if you had 2 loaders that loaded this, what would happen?

So, to fix your example, instead of:

            PropertyChanges {
                target: yellowRect
                color: "gray"
            }

You need:

            PropertyChanges {
                target: loader.item
                color: "gray"
            }
