Obtain object type string from QML

I mean that if we using objectName() method that we must set this property to all instances of class in constructor or in other places. For example: MyObject1() { //  setObjectName("MyObject1"); // or    setObjectName(metaObject()->className()); } or as you wrote: Text {             id: mytext             objectName: "MyTextObject"             anchors.centerIn: parent             text: "Hello, World!"         } But if we using className wrapper property than we may define this methods in our class declaration. And this is allow to us to making safe inheritance from MyObject1: for subclasses className() return actual className! Q_PROPERTY(QString className READ className CONSTANT)   QString className() {     return metaObject()->className(); } and we can using objectName for other purposes, for example: MyObject1 objA = new MyObject1(); objA.setObjectName("A");   MyObject1 objB = new MyObject1(); objB.setObjectName("B"); This is can be useful for debugging.
