I'm attempting to create my own orientation sensor that sits on top of a particular accelerometer implementation. I'd like to use my orientation sensor from a QML application. Given what I just stated, I'm looking for the recommended approach to implementing my own orientation sensor and using it in QML. Let me explain further with the following questions:
1. Do I want to create a new class, call it MyOrientationSensor, that inherits from QOrientationSensor and a paired class for the reading, call it MyOrientationReading? Or do I want to implement it like the GrueSensor example and inherit from QSensor? 2. If taking the GrueSensor approach from #1, how do I avoid reimplementing the interface and implementation of the QOrientationSensor again? An example would be needing an enumerated type such as the Orientation enum from QOrientationSensor. 3. Next, using my sensor within QML, if taking the GrueSensor approach, I know I'd then import my own QML package and instantiate my sensor by its unique name. But if the approach is the use the same name as the default orientation sensor type, i.e. "OrientationSensor", how do I make sure that it selects my orientation sensor as the one to use and not one of the sensors from dummy sensors, generic sensors, etc? Do I need to register another type with QML, or does it automatically get registered using this approach? I apologize if these questions seem simple, I'm new to Qt and QML. Thanks for any help given, Jim _______________________________________________ Interest mailing list Interest@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/interest
