  \class QScriptEngine
  \reentrant

  \brief The QScriptEngine class provides an environment for evaluating Qt Script code.

  \ingroup script
  \mainclass

  See the \l{QtScript} documentation for information about the Qt Script language,
  and how to get started with scripting your C++ application.

  \section1 Evaluating Scripts

  Use evaluate() to evaluate script code; this is the C++ equivalent
  of the built-in script function \c{eval()}.

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

  evaluate() returns a QScriptValue that holds the result of the
  evaluation. The QScriptValue class provides functions for converting
  the result to various C++ types (e.g. QScriptValue::toString()
  and QScriptValue::toNumber()).

  The following code snippet shows how a script function can be
  defined and then invoked from C++ using QScriptValue::call():

  \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_script_qscriptengine.cpp 1

  As can be seen from the above snippets, a script is provided to the
  engine in the form of a string. One common way of loading scripts is
  by reading the contents of a file and passing it to evaluate():

  \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_script_qscriptengine.cpp 2

  Here we pass the name of the file as the second argument to
  evaluate().  This does not affect evaluation in any way; the second
  argument is a general-purpose string that is used to identify the
  script for debugging purposes (for example, our filename will now
  show up in any uncaughtExceptionBacktrace() involving the script).

  \section1 Engine Configuration

  The globalObject() function returns the \bold {Global Object}
  associated with the script engine. Properties of the Global Object
  are accessible from any script code (i.e. they are global
  variables). Typically, before evaluating "user" scripts, you will
  want to configure a script engine by adding one or more properties
  to the Global Object:

  \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_script_qscriptengine.cpp 3

  Adding custom properties to the scripting environment is one of the
  standard means of providing a scripting API that is specific to your
  application. Usually these custom properties are objects created by
  the newQObject() or newObject() functions, or constructor functions
  created by newFunction().

  \section1 Script Exceptions

  evaluate() can throw a script exception (e.g. due to a syntax
  error); in that case, the return value is the value that was thrown
  (typically an \c{Error} object). You can check whether the
  evaluation caused an exception by calling hasUncaughtException(). In
  that case, you can call toString() on the error object to obtain an
  error message. The current uncaught exception is also available
  through uncaughtException(). You can obtain a human-readable
  backtrace of the exception with uncaughtExceptionBacktrace().
  Calling clearExceptions() will cause any uncaught exceptions to be
  cleared.

  \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_script_qscriptengine.cpp 4

  The checkSyntax() function can be used to determine whether code can be
  usefully passed to evaluate().

  \section1 Script Object Creation

  Use newObject() to create a standard Qt Script object; this is the
  C++ equivalent of the script statement \c{new Object()}. You can use
  the object-specific functionality in QScriptValue to manipulate the
  script object (e.g. QScriptValue::setProperty()). Similarly, use
  newArray() to create a Qt Script array object. Use newDate() to
  create a \c{Date} object, and newRegExp() to create a \c{RegExp}
  object.

  \section1 QObject Integration

  Use newQObject() to wrap a QObject (or subclass)
  pointer. newQObject() returns a proxy script object; properties,
  children, and signals and slots of the QObject are available as
  properties of the proxy object. No binding code is needed because it
  is done dynamically using the Qt meta object system.

  \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_script_qscriptengine.cpp 5

  Use qScriptConnect() to connect a C++ signal to a script function;
  this is the Qt Script equivalent of QObject::connect().  When a
  script function is invoked in response to a C++ signal, it can cause
  a script exception; you can connect to the signalHandlerException()
  signal to catch such an exception.

  Use newQMetaObject() to wrap a QMetaObject; this gives you a "script
  representation" of a QObject-based class. newQMetaObject() returns a
  proxy script object; enum values of the class are available as
  properties of the proxy object. You can also specify a function that
  will be used to construct objects of the class (e.g.  when the
  constructor is invoked from a script). For classes that have a
  "standard" Qt constructor, Qt Script can provide a default script
  constructor for you; see scriptValueFromQMetaObject().

  See the \l{QtScript} documentation for more information on
  the QObject integration.

  \section1 Support for Custom C++ Types

  Use newVariant() to wrap a QVariant. This can be used to store
  values of custom (non-QObject) C++ types that have been registered
  with the Qt meta-type system. To make such types scriptable, you
  typically associate a prototype (delegate) object with the C++ type
  by calling setDefaultPrototype(); the prototype object defines the
  scripting API for the C++ type. Unlike the QObject integration,
  there is no automatic binding possible here; i.e. you have to create
  the scripting API yourself, for example by using the QScriptable
  class.

  Use fromScriptValue() to cast from a QScriptValue to another type,
  and toScriptValue() to create a QScriptValue from another value.
  You can specify how the conversion of C++ types is to be performed
  with qScriptRegisterMetaType() and qScriptRegisterSequenceMetaType().
  By default, Qt Script will use QVariant to store values of custom
  types.

  \section1 Importing Extensions

  Use importExtension() to import plugin-based extensions into the
  engine. Call availableExtensions() to obtain a list naming all the
  available extensions, and importedExtensions() to obtain a list
  naming only those extensions that have been imported.

  Call pushContext() to open up a new variable scope, and popContext()
  to close the current scope. This is useful if you are implementing
  an extension that evaluates script code containing temporary
  variable definitions (e.g. \c{var foo = 123;}) that are safe to
  discard when evaluation has completed.

  \section1 Native Functions

  Use newFunction() to wrap native (C++) functions, including
  constructors for your own custom types, so that these can be invoked
  from script code. Such functions must have the signature
  QScriptEngine::FunctionSignature. You may then pass the function as
  argument to newFunction(). Here is an example of a function that
  returns the sum of its first two arguments:

  \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_script_qscriptengine.cpp 6

  To expose this function to script code, you can set it as a property
  of the Global Object:

  \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_script_qscriptengine.cpp 7

  Once this is done, script code can call your function in the exact
  same manner as a "normal" script function:

  \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_script_qscriptengine.cpp 8

  \section1 Long-running Scripts

  If you need to evaluate possibly long-running scripts from the main
  (GUI) thread, you should first call setProcessEventsInterval() to
  make sure that the GUI stays responsive. You can abort a currently
  running script by calling abortEvaluation(). You can determine
  whether an engine is currently running a script by calling
  isEvaluating().

  \section1 Core Debugging/Tracing Facilities

  Since Qt 4.4, you can be notified of events pertaining to script
  execution (e.g. script function calls and statement execution)
  through the QScriptEngineAgent interface; see the setAgent()
  function. This can be used to implement debugging and profiling of a
  QScriptEngine.

  \sa QScriptValue, QScriptContext, QScriptEngineAgent

/*!
    \enum QScriptEngine::ValueOwnership

    This enum specifies the ownership when wrapping a C++ value, e.g. by using newQObject().

    \value QtOwnership The standard Qt ownership rules apply, i.e. the associated object will never be explicitly deleted by the script engine. This is the default. (QObject ownership is explained in \l{Object Trees and Object Ownership}.)
    \value ScriptOwnership The value is owned by the script environment. The associated data will be deleted when appropriate (i.e. after the garbage collector has discovered that there are no more live references to the value).
    \value AutoOwnership If the associated object has a parent, the Qt ownership rules apply (QtOwnership); otherwise, the object is owned by the script environment (ScriptOwnership).
*/

/*!
    \enum  QScriptEngine::QObjectWrapOption

    These flags specify options when wrapping a QObject pointer with newQObject().

    \value ExcludeChildObjects The script object will not expose child objects as properties.
    \value ExcludeSuperClassMethods The script object will not expose signals and slots inherited from the superclass.
    \value ExcludeSuperClassProperties The script object will not expose properties inherited from the superclass.
    \value ExcludeSuperClassContents Shorthand form for ExcludeSuperClassMethods | ExcludeSuperClassProperties
    \value ExcludeDeleteLater The script object will not expose the QObject::deleteLater() slot.
    \value AutoCreateDynamicProperties Properties that don't already exist in the QObject will be created as dynamic properties of that object, rather than as properties of the script object.
    \value PreferExistingWrapperObject If a wrapper object with the requested configuration already exists, return that object.
    \value SkipMethodsInEnumeration Don't include methods (signals and slots) when enumerating the object's properties.

  Note that \a length only gives an indication of the number of
  arguments that the function expects; an actual invocation of a
  function can include any number of arguments. You can check the
  \l{QScriptContext::argumentCount()}{argumentCount()} of the
  QScriptContext associated with the invocation to determine the
  actual number of arguments passed.

  A \c{prototype} property is automatically created for the resulting
  function object, to provide for the possibility that the function
  will be used as a constructor.

  By combining newFunction() and the property flags
  QScriptValue::PropertyGetter and QScriptValue::PropertySetter, you
  can create script object properties that behave like normal
  properties in script code, but are in fact accessed through
  functions (analogous to how properties work in \l{Qt's Property
  System}). Example:

  \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_script_qscriptengine.cpp 11

  When the property \c{foo} of the script object is subsequently
  accessed in script code, \c{getSetFoo()} will be invoked to handle
  the access.  In this particular case, we chose to store the "real"
  value of \c{foo} as a property of the accessor function itself; you
  are of course free to do whatever you like in this function.

  In the above example, a single native function was used to handle
  both reads and writes to the property; the argument count is used to
  determine if we are handling a read or write. You can also use two
  separate functions; just specify the relevant flag
  (QScriptValue::PropertyGetter or QScriptValue::PropertySetter) when
  setting the property, e.g.:

  Returns true if \a program can be evaluated; i.e. the code is
  sufficient to determine whether it appears to be a syntactically
  correct program, or contains a syntax error.

  This function returns false if \a program is incomplete; i.e. the
  input is syntactically correct up to the point where the input is
  terminated.

  Note that this function only does a static check of \a program;
  e.g. it does not check whether references to variables are
  valid, and so on.

  A typical usage of canEvaluate() is to implement an interactive
  interpreter for QtScript. The user is repeatedly queried for
  individual lines of code; the lines are concatened internally, and
  only when canEvaluate() returns true for the resulting program is it
  passed to evaluate().

  The following are some examples to illustrate the behavior of
  canEvaluate(). (Note that all example inputs are assumed to have an
  explicit newline as their last character, since otherwise the
  QtScript parser would automatically insert a semi-colon character at
  the end of the input, and this could cause canEvaluate() to produce
  different results.)

  Given the input
  \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_script_qscriptengine.cpp 14
  canEvaluate() will return true, since the program appears to be complete.

  Given the input
  \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_script_qscriptengine.cpp 15
  canEvaluate() will return false, since the if-statement is not complete,
  but is syntactically correct so far.

  Given the input
  \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_script_qscriptengine.cpp 16
  canEvaluate() will return true, but evaluate() will throw a
  SyntaxError given the same input.

  Given the input
  \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_script_qscriptengine.cpp 17
  canEvaluate() will return true, even though the code is clearly not
  syntactically valid QtScript code. evaluate() will throw a
  SyntaxError when this code is evaluated.

  Given the input
  \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_script_qscriptengine.cpp 18
  canEvaluate() will return true, but evaluate() will throw a
  ReferenceError if \c{foo} is not defined in the script

    Registers the type \c{T} in the given \a engine. \a toScriptValue must
    be a function that will convert from a value of type \c{T} to a
    QScriptValue, and \a fromScriptValue a function that does the
    opposite. \a prototype, if valid, is the prototype that's set on
    QScriptValues returned by \a toScriptValue.

    Returns the internal ID used by QMetaType.

    You only need to call this function if you want to provide custom
    conversion of values of type \c{T}, i.e. if the default
    QVariant-based representation and conversion is not
    appropriate. (Note that custom QObject-derived types also fall in
    this category; e.g. for a QObject-derived class called MyObject,
    you probably want to define conversion functions for MyObject*
    that utilize QScriptEngine::newQObject() and
    QScriptValue::toQObject().)

    If you only want to define a common script interface for values of
    type \c{T}, and don't care how those values are represented
    (i.e. storing them in QVariants is fine), use
    \l{QScriptEngine::setDefaultPrototype()}{setDefaultPrototype}()
    instead; this will minimize conversion costs.

    You need to declare the custom type first with
    Q_DECLARE_METATYPE().

    After a type has been registered, you can convert from a
    QScriptValue to that type using
    \l{QScriptEngine::fromScriptValue()}{fromScriptValue}(), and
    create a QScriptValue from a value of that type using
    \l{QScriptEngine::toScriptValue()}{toScriptValue}(). The engine
    will take care of calling the proper conversion function when
    calling C++ slots, and when getting or setting a C++ property;
    i.e. the custom type may be used seamlessly on both the C++ side
    and the script side.

    The following is an example of how to use this function. We will
    specify custom conversion of our type \c{MyStruct}. Here's the C++
    type:

    \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_script_qscriptengine.cpp 20

    We must declare it so that the type will be known to QMetaType:

    \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_script_qscriptengine.cpp 21

    Next, the \c{MyStruct} conversion functions. We represent the
    \c{MyStruct} value as a script object and just copy the properties:

    \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_script_qscriptengine.cpp 22

    Now we can register \c{MyStruct} with the engine:
    \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_script_qscriptengine.cpp 23

    Working with \c{MyStruct} values is now easy:
    \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_script_qscriptengine.cpp 24

    If you want to be able to construct values of your custom type
    from script code, you have to register a constructor function for
    the type. For example:

    \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_script_qscriptengine.cpp 25

    and Qt Script \c{Array} objects. \c{T} must provide a
    const_iterator class and begin(), end() and push_back()
    functions. If \a prototype is valid, it will be set as the
    prototype of \c{Array} objects due to conversion from \c{T};
    otherwise, the standard \c{Array} prototype will be used.

    Returns the internal ID used by QMetaType.

    You need to declare the container type first with
    Q_DECLARE_METATYPE(). If the element type isn't a standard Qt/C++
    type, it must be declared using Q_DECLARE_METATYPE() as well.
    Example:

    \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_script_qscriptengine.cpp 26

    \sa qScriptRegisterMetaType()
