Next up on the list of problems: setTimeout not known.

I found a QTimer class but whatever I try, I keep getting errors. I read somewhere that a QObject should have a setTimeout function - but this also fails.

Does anyone have an example of this? I actually need a timer that fires only once and a timer which fires roughly each second.

I tried a busy loop for the fire once timer but the result is exactly what I expected and ofcourse not what I want... Anyone?

http://amarok.kde.org/qtscriptbindings/qtimer.html has the barebone JavaScript docs. You can see that it doesn't derive from QObject and doesn't have a 'setTimeout' function. Check with these docs when things aren't matching up.

I figured it out (yay) - to leave an example for others:

Code: Select all

var qo = new QObject();
qo.count = 0;
qo.event = function(qevent) {
    this.count++;
    if(this.count >= 3) this.killTimer(qo.timerID);
    Amarok.alert("event " + qo.count + " " + qevent);
    return true;
}
qo.timerID = qo.startTimer(3000);
