[Kde-bindings] qtruby: problem communicating ruby-defined objects via properties

[Sven Moritz Hallberg]

hi all,

here's a problem i'm experiencing with my qtruby property patch posted before.
hopefully someone can shed some light on what's to blame here.

in the attached program, i define and instantiate two custom descendants of
Qt::Object. one contains the other in a property. the QML side tries to
extract the value of the property and call a slot on the object. unfortunately
it never gets that far because the value it gets from the property is not
translated to a Javascript object.

for comparison it exports the object directly first.

expected output:
[qml] bar = Bar(0x...)
[qml] calling bar.baz(123)
[ruby] in baz: got 123.0
[qml] foo.bar = Bar(0x...)
[qml] calling foo.bar.baz(123)
[ruby] in baz: got 123.0

actual output:
[qml] bar = Bar(0x206ec10)
[qml] calling bar.baz(123)
[ruby] in baz: got 123.0
[qml] foo.bar = QVariant(rObject)
[qml] calling foo.bar.baz(123)
file:///home/hallberg/test/qt2a.qml:13: TypeError: Result of expression
'foo.bar.baz' [undefined] is not a function.

note foo.bar being printed as QVariant(rObject) instead of Bar.

any help?

TIA!
Sven
