* implement ability to dynamically change class of script objectsKent Hansen2009-07-101-0/+225
With an object created by QScriptEngine::newObject(), it should be possible to call QScriptValue::setClass() to dynamically change the behavior of that object. Similarly, it should be possible to promote plain script objects to QObject (QVariant) wrappers by calling the overload of QScriptEngine::newQObject() (newVariant()) that takes a script object as the first argument. This commit implements this capability. The premise is the (internal) QScriptObject class, which inherits JSC::JSObject. It reimplements all the methods for getting/setting properties etc. Then there's a level of indirection to facilitate dynamic change of the class: Each QScriptObject can have a delegate associated with it that will handle operations on the object. By default there is no delegate, so the object behaves as a normal JS object, as you expect. However, once a delegate is set (e.g., when QScriptValue::setScriptClass() is called), QScriptObject will give the delegate the chance to handle the object operation. In addition to a delegate implementation for QScriptClass-based objects, there are also delegates for QObject and QVariant wrappers. These replace the QObjectWrapperObject and QVariantWrapperObject classes.
