## Detailed Description

The QQmlScriptString class encapsulates a script and its context.

QQmlScriptString is used to create QObject properties that accept a script "assignment" from QML.

Normally, the following QML would result in a binding being established for the `script` property; i.e. `script` would be assigned the value obtained from running `myObj.value = Math.max(myValue, 100)`

      MyType {
          script: myObj.value = Math.max(myValue, 100)
      }

If instead the property had a type of QQmlScriptString, the script itself -- myObj.value = Math.max(myValue, 100) -- would be passed to the `script` property and the class could choose how to handle it. Typically, the class will evaluate the script at some later time using a QQmlExpression.

      QQmlExpression expr(scriptString);
      expr.evaluate();

## Member Function Documentation

### QQmlScriptString::QQmlScriptString()

Constructs an empty instance.

### QQmlScriptString::QQmlScriptString(const QQmlScriptString &other)

Copies other.

### bool QQmlScriptString::booleanLiteral(bool *ok) const

If the content of the QQmlScriptString is a boolean literal, returns the boolean value and sets ok to true. Otherwise returns false and sets ok to false.

### bool QQmlScriptString::isEmpty() const

Returns whether the QQmlScriptString is empty.

### bool QQmlScriptString::isNullLiteral() const

Returns whether the content of the QQmlScriptString is the `null` literal.

### bool QQmlScriptString::isUndefinedLiteral() const

Returns whether the content of the QQmlScriptString is the `undefined` literal.

### qreal QQmlScriptString::numberLiteral(bool *ok) const

If the content of the QQmlScriptString is a number literal, returns that number and sets ok to true. Otherwise returns 0.0 and sets ok to false.

### QString QQmlScriptString::stringLiteral() const

If the content of the QQmlScriptString is a string literal, returns that string. Otherwise returns a null QString.

### bool QQmlScriptString::operator!=(const QQmlScriptString &other) const

Returns `true` if this and the other QQmlScriptString objects are different.

See also operator==().

### QQmlScriptString &QQmlScriptString::operator=(const QQmlScriptString &other)

Assigns other to this.

### bool QQmlScriptString::operator==(const QQmlScriptString &other) const

Returns `true` if this and the other QQmlScriptString objects are equal.

See also operator!=().
