ic, it could move out of the JS files and start using that module from QML directly as passing the score to the "logic module" is UI logic. The advantage here is that new UIs can bring in modular secondary functionality easily, like web highscores or time-decay highscores, without needing to touch the application logic. Sorry I don't have a very clear example/story here, as I said we're not up to this point for realistically sized apps ;) . -- Alan Alpert ___ Development mailing list Development@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
