QMetaEnum, QMetaProperty for dynamically added property

[anda_skoa]

Make SomeClass a QObject, create some mapping of enum name to meta object, e.g.

QHash<QByteArray, QMetaObject*> EnumMap;
EnumMap.insert("nameMyEnum", &SomeClass::staticMetaObject);

QHash<QByteArray, QMetaObject*> EnumMap;
EnumMap.insert("nameMyEnum", &SomeClass::staticMetaObject);

Thanks for the suggestion.
SomeClass is already a QObject derived class. Had to make it one to use Q_ENUMS, Q_DECLARE_METATYPE, qRegisterMetaType. However, there are a few of these SomeClass like classes. Currently runs into hundreds, and expected to grow further. Hardcoding for each one of these class into a hash will be too prone to break. I will have to introduce some kind of registration scheme for each class.
Even that will end up being messy, given the fact that the enums types are int in qvariant. To get them to show some type I need to qRegisterMetaType for each of these. Given most of the enums of qt gui types are not registered, the code will be too prone to error as the author of a class may not introduce the qRegisterMetaType for each type.
I wish there was a easier way out, like it is with static properties iteration and type classification. Too much to ask for, perhaps.
