qt - Calling a QML function from C++

Question

I'm developing a Blackberry 10 mobile application using the BB Native SDK.

I need to call a QML function into my C++ class. I searched a lot on this but I only found the possibility to call C++ into QML not the inverse. You can check this: QML and C++ integration

Can anyone help me on this?

This is the QML code specifying the function that I need to call which add a marker into my mapview:

Container {
    id: pinContainer
    objectName: "pinContObject"
        ...

        function addPin(lat, lon, name, address) {
            var marker = pin.createObject();
            marker.lat = lat;
            marker.lon = lon;
            ...
        }
}

Answer 1

Thats what signals and slots are for. You can use the QML Connections for connecting arbitrary signals to arbitrary slots in QML.

http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qml-connections.html

  Container {
            id: pinContainer
            objectName: "pinContObject"
            ...

            function addPin(lat, lon, name, address) {
                var marker = pin.createObject();
                marker.lat = lat;
                marker.lon = lon;
                ...
            }

            Connections {
                target: backend
                onDoAddPin: { 
                  addPin(latitude, longitude,name, address)
                }
            }
     }

and in C++ backend, all you have to do is

class Backend: public QObject {
signals:
    void doAddPin(float latitude, float longitude, QString name, QString address);

 ........
 void callAddPinInQML(){
     emit doAddPin( 12.34, 45.67, "hello", "world");
 }
}
