<pre style="white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">An option for using Q_PROPERTY macros with NOTIFY signals might make a bit more sense since that is even handier to use than Q_INVOKABLE methods for settings (read/write) in QML. We would also have an "onFoobarChanged" signal handler then in QML for these properties. I am eager to implement that, but it is going to be a bit more intrusive patch, and work from me.</pre>

<pre style="margin: 0; padding: 0; white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">The patch addresses the current issue, for instance with QML-based KDE UIs.
There is no clean way currently for having, for example a Settings page for a
KDE Mobile application, and interact with the backend (generated code)
directly from the QML bits.
The current workaround is to have proxy methods in a helper class that are
properly exposed to QML. There are no visible drawbacks for this extension as
far as a programmer might wanna expose it on wish. :)
The patch has a minor "drawback" because it puts the "static" keyword in line
with the rest of the method declaration, so resides the Q_INVOKABLE macro. It
is not any source or binary incompatible change though, just generated code-style
internals. The patch is simpler and cleaner this way, and I personally prefer
the not split declaration as well. Although this is behind the main point of
the addition, thus can be altered, if needed.</pre>

accessor and mutator methods are properly generated. That said, it is being
planned against the "frameworks" branch since no new features involved in the
KDE4.X series anymore.</pre>
