Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ QQmlConnections()

QQmlConnections::QQmlConnections ( QObject * parent = nullptr)
\qmltype Connections
\nativetype QQmlConnections
\inqmlmodule QtQml
\ingroup qtquick-interceptors
\brief Describes generalized connections to signals.

A Connections object creates a connection to a QML signal.

When connecting to signals in QML, the usual way is to create an
"on<Signal>" handler that reacts when a signal is received, like this:

\qml
MouseArea {
    onClicked: (mouse)=> { foo(mouse) }
}
\endqml

However, it is not possible to connect to a signal in this way in some
cases, such as when:

\list
    \li Multiple connections to the same signal are required
    \li Creating connections outside the scope of the signal sender
    \li Connecting to targets not defined in QML
\endlist

When any of these are needed, the Connections type can be used instead.

For example, the above code can be changed to use a Connections object,
like this:

\qml
MouseArea {
    Connections {
        function onClicked(mouse) { foo(mouse) }
    }
}
\endqml

More generally, the Connections object can be a child of some object other than
the sender of the signal:

\qml
MouseArea {
    id: area
}

... \endqml \qml Connections { target: area function onClicked(mouse) { foo(mouse) } } \endqml

Note
For backwards compatibility you can also specify the signal handlers without {function}, like you would specify them directly in the target object. This is not recommended. If you specify one signal handler this way, then all signal handlers specified as {function} in the same Connections object are ignored.

Member Function Documentation

◆ classBegin()

void QQmlConnections::classBegin ( )
overrideprotectedvirtual

Invoked after class creation, but before any properties have been set.

Implements QQmlParserStatus.

Definition at line 479 of file qqmlconnections.cpp.

◆ componentComplete()

void QQmlConnections::componentComplete ( )
overrideprotectedvirtual

Invoked after the root component that caused this instantiation has completed construction.

At this point all static values and binding values have been assigned to the class.

Implements QQmlParserStatus.

Definition at line 485 of file qqmlconnections.cpp.

◆ ignoreUnknownSignals()

bool QQmlConnections::ignoreUnknownSignals ( ) const

\qmlproperty bool QtQml::Connections::ignoreUnknownSignals

Normally, a connection to a non-existent signal produces runtime errors.

If this property is set to true, such errors are ignored. This is useful if you intend to connect to different types of objects, handling a different set of signals for each object.

Definition at line 320 of file qqmlconnections.cpp.

◆ isEnabled()

bool QQmlConnections::isEnabled ( ) const

\qmlproperty bool QtQml::Connections::enabled

Since
5.7

This property holds whether the item accepts change events.

By default, this property is true.

Definition at line 253 of file qqmlconnections.cpp.

◆ target()

QObject * QQmlConnections::target ( ) const

\qmlproperty QtObject QtQml::Connections::target This property holds the object that sends the signal.

If this property is not set, the target defaults to the parent of the Connection.

If set to null, no connection is made and any signal handlers are ignored until the target is not null.
