QT_QML_GENERATE_ANDROID_JAVA_CLASS

Marks a QML file for Java code generation.

This property was introduced in Qt 6.8.

When using QML as a Android: View in Android via QtQuickView, you can choose the QML components to make available as generated Java classes usable from Android code. To mark a .qml file for code generation, set its QT_QML_GENERATE_ANDROID_JAVA_CLASS source property to TRUE. The source property must be set before creating the module.

Note: The .qml file name must start with an uppercase letter and define a QML component. This property is valid only if QT_ANDROID_GENERATE_JAVA_QTQUICKVIEW_CONTENTS is defined.

The source file property can be set like so:

 set_source_files_properties(MyMainItem.qml
     PROPERTIES QT_QML_GENERATE_ANDROID_JAVA_CLASS TRUE)

You can pass multiple files at once to set_source_files_properties:

 set(plain_qml_files
     MyItem1.qml
     MyItem2.qml
     FancyButton.qml

 )

 set(qml_to_java_files
     MyMainItem.qml
     MyOtherMain.qml
 )

 set_source_files_properties(${qml_to_java_files}
     PROPERTIES QT_QML_GENERATE_ANDROID_JAVA_CLASS TRUE
 )

 qt_add_qml_module(myapp
     URI MyModule
     QML_FILES ${plain_qml_files} ${qml_to_java_files}
 )
