make QVector's operator useful in qtscript

[wookoon]

We can make c++'s Object and Functions available in QtScript，

Can QVector's operator be availiable in QtScript?

then in qtscript:
var vector1 = [1,2,3];
var vector2 = [3,4,5];
var a = vector1 + vector2;

this is what I want get.

But you are not using QVector here anywhere. There is just javascript code here.

c++ code:

Q_DECLARE_METATYPE(QVector<float>)
 
QVector<float> vector1;
QVector<float> vector2;
QVector<float> vector3;
 
vector1 << 1 << 2 << 3;
vector2 << 3 << 4 << 5;
 
QScriptEngine *engine = new QScriptEngine;
 
qScriptRegisterSequenceMetaType<QVector<float> >(engine);
QScriptValue value = engine->toScriptValue(vector1);
engine->globalObject().setProperty("vec1",value);
 
value = engine->toScriptValue(vector2);
engine->globalObject().setProperty("vec2",value);
 
value = engine->toScriptValue(vector3);
engine->globalObject().setProperty("vec3",value);

Q_DECLARE_METATYPE(QVector<float>)

QVector<float> vector1;
QVector<float> vector2;
QVector<float> vector3;

vector1 << 1 << 2 << 3;
vector2 << 3 << 4 << 5;

QScriptEngine *engine = new QScriptEngine;

qScriptRegisterSequenceMetaType<QVector<float> >(engine);
QScriptValue value = engine->toScriptValue(vector1);
engine->globalObject().setProperty("vec1",value);

value = engine->toScriptValue(vector2);
engine->globalObject().setProperty("vec2",value);

value = engine->toScriptValue(vector3);
engine->globalObject().setProperty("vec3",value);

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

now the vec1,vec2 and vec3 is availiable in Qtscript,

If I want do like this in QtScript,:

vec3 = vec1 + vec2 ,

vec3 = vec1 + vec2 ,

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

Could this be realized in Qtscript?

I think if can make QVector's operator function be availiable in qtscript, then can realize it.

I have try another method:
I write a object and overide the "+" operator,and make it availiable in qtscript,

class MyObject : public QObject
{
    Q_OBJECT
public:
    explicit MyObject(QObject *parent = 0);
 
    Q_INVOKABLE MyObject* operator+(const MyObject &other)
    {
        MyObject *object = new MyObject;
        object->d = other.d + this->d;
        return object;
    };
 
    void setValue(int value){d = value;};
    int value(){return d;};
 
private:
    int d;
};

class MyObject : public QObject
{
    Q_OBJECT
public:
    explicit MyObject(QObject *parent = 0);

    Q_INVOKABLE MyObject* operator+(const MyObject &other)
    {
        MyObject *object = new MyObject;
        object->d = other.d + this->d;
        return object;
    };

    void setValue(int value){d = value;};
    int value(){return d;};

private:
    int d;
};

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

main.cpp:

MyObject * object = new MyObject;
object->setValue(10);
QScriptValue objectValue = engine->newQObject(object);
engine->globalObject().setProperty("obj1", objectValue);
 
MyObject * object2 = new MyObject;
object2->setValue(5);
objectValue = engine->newQObject(object2);
engine->globalObject().setProperty("obj2", objectValue);
 
engine->evaluate("obj1+obj2;");

MyObject * object = new MyObject;
object->setValue(10);
QScriptValue objectValue = engine->newQObject(object);
engine->globalObject().setProperty("obj1", objectValue);

MyObject * object2 = new MyObject;
object2->setValue(5);
objectValue = engine->newQObject(object2);
engine->globalObject().setProperty("obj2", objectValue);

engine->evaluate("obj1+obj2;");

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

But from my debug, the "obj1 + obj2" did not execute the MyObject's "+" operator.

So this method maybe is no effect.

From what I can see Javascript does not support operator overloading. You need a "named" method for this. You can add this method to your objects by modifying their prototype or defining the method in C++ as part of the class. As for QVector, you need to make it scriptable manually using means such as QScriptable and/or QScriptClass.
