Moc generates uncompilable code

[jacek]

It seems that documentation says nothing about it.

Not quite, it says:

Ideally, this macro should be placed below the declaration of the class or struct. If that is not possible, it can be put in a private header file which has to be included every time that type is used in a QVariant.

I guess the problem is that the code generated by moc doesn't include that other header file.

Yes, I've missed this. Thanks for pointing me to it.

No, .moc file is included in .cc file which includes all required headers. Moc generates a reference to Core::staticMetaObjec where it obviously should be Core::Particle::staticMetaObject. Very strange that it is related to Q_PROPERTY.

My original goal was to put Q_DECLARE_METATYPE into different header because I want to have a subset of my API which is independent of Qt.

class Particle is not derived from QObject.

No, I's derived from QObject.

No, I's derived from QObject.

Where?

namespace Core {
class Particle {
    Q_OBJECT
    Q_PROPERTY(Core::Vector position READ position WRITE setPosition)
public:
    ....
};
}

namespace Core {
class Particle {
    Q_OBJECT
    Q_PROPERTY(Core::Vector position READ position WRITE setPosition)
public:
    ....
};
}
