Strongly-typed enums need to be used as a completely separate type. You need to declare them as metatypes, load them into a QVariant using QVairant::fromValue and retrieve using qvariant_cast<EnumType>(). -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel Open Source Technology Center _______________________________________________ Interest mailing list [email protected] http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/interest
