  \class QScriptClass

  \brief The QScriptClass class provides an interface for defining custom behavior of (a class of) Qt Script objects.

  \ingroup script

  \mainclass

  The QScriptClass class defines an interface for handling various

  aspects of interaction with the Qt Script objects associated with

  the class. Such objects are created by calling

  QScriptEngine::newObject(), passing a pointer to the QScriptClass as

  argument.

  By subclassing QScriptClass, you can define precisely how access to

  properties of the objects that use your class is handled. This

  enables a fully dynamic handling of properties, e.g. it's more

  powerful than QScriptEngine::newQObject(). For example, you can use

  QScriptClass to implement array-type objects (i.e. objects that

  handle the \c{length} property, and properties whose names are valid

  array indexes, in a special way), or to implement a "live"

  (runtime-defined) proxy to an underlying object.

  If you just need to handle access to a set of properties that are

  known at the time an object is created (i.e. "semi-statically"), you

  might consider using QScriptValue::setProperty() to define

  getter/setter functions for the relevant properties, rather than

  subclassing QScriptClass.

  Reimplement queryProperty() to specify which properties are handled

  in a custom way by your script class (i.e. should be

  \bold{delegated} to the QScriptClass), and which properties should

  be handled just like normal Qt Script object properties.

  Reimplement property() and setProperty() to perform the actual

  access (read or write) to the properties that your class

  handles. Additionally, you can reimplement propertyFlags() to

  specify custom flags for your properties.

  Reimplement newIterator() to provide an iterator for objects of your

  custom class. This is only necessary if objects of your class can

  have custom properties that you want to be reported when an object

  is used together with the QScriptValueIterator class, or when an

  object is used in a for-in enumeration statement in a script.

  When implementing custom classes of objects, you typically use

  QScriptValue::setData() to store instance-specific data as part of

  object initialization; the data won't be accessible from scripts

  directly, but you can access it in e.g. your reimplementations of

  property() and setProperty() (by calling QScriptValue::data()) to

  perform custom processing.

  Reimplement prototype() to provide a custom prototype object for

  your script class.

  Reimplement supportsExtension() and extension() if your custom

  script class supports one or more of the extensions specified by the

  Extension enum.

  Queries this script class for how access to the property with the

  given \a name of the given \a object should be handled. The given \a

  flags specify the aspects of interest. This function should return a

  subset of \a flags to indicate which aspects of property access

  should be further handled by the script class.

  For example, if the \a flags contain HandlesReadAccess, and you

  would like your class to handle the reading of the property (through

  the property() function), the returned flags should include

  HandlesReadAccess. If the returned flags do not contain

  HandlesReadAccess, the property will be handled as a normal script

  object property.

  You can optionally use the \a id argument to store a value that will

  subsequently be passed on to functions such as property() and

  setProperty().

  The default implementation of this function returns 0.

  Note: This function is only called if the given property isn't

  already a normal property of the object. For example, say you

  advertise that you want to handle read access to property \c{foo},

  but not write access; if \c{foo} is then assigned a value, it will

  become a normal script object property, and subsequently you will no

  longer be queried regarding read access to \c{foo}.

  to check if an extension is supported by the QScriptClass.  By

  default, no extensions are supported, and this function returns an

  invalid QVariant.

  If you implement the Callable extension, Qt Script will call this

  function when an instance of your class is called as a function

  (e.g. from a script or using QScriptValue::call()).  The \a argument

  will contain a pointer to the QScriptContext that represents the

  function call, and you should return a QVariant that holds the

  result of the function call. In the following example the sum of the

  arguments to the script function are added up and returned:

  \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_script_qscriptclass.cpp 0

  If you implement the HasInstance extension, Qt Script will call this

  function as part of evaluating the \c{instanceof} operator, as

  described in ECMA-262 Section 11.8.6. The \a argument is a

  QScriptValueList containing two items: The first item is the object

  that HasInstance is being applied to (an instance of your class),

  and the second item can be any value. extension() should return true

  if the value delegates behavior to the object, false otherwise.
