[Qt5-feedback] User-defined meta data for QMetaProperty

[Jason H]

Couldn't we then use QObjects as a storage medium for general structured data, say as a universal format. THen we can write generic XML/binary readers/writers.

No?

Hi,

When defining properties, one can set a couple of flags like STORED and
DESIGNABLE. For certain applications, I found that it would be very useful
if this mechanism were somehow extendable to include arbitrairy other
pieces of data. A main use would be applying to make more powerful
property editors without having to create a new hierarchy of data or
adaptor classes on top of the already existing QObject meta data.

Do others here see uses for such a mechanism? Do you think it doable to
add that?

André
