Hi all,
In the progress of upgrading an app to 5.12, I'm seeing some unexpected
issues with external JS dependencies.
In JS libs before 5.12, I've always used a closure approach to not leak a
bunch of private variables onto the global module object. This results in a
layout much like so:
(function(lib) {
... closed vars can be declared here ...
lib.bar = function() {
return "baz";
};
})(this);
And then traditionally used it in QML e.g. like so:
import "foo.js" as Foo
Item {
objectName: Foo.bar()
}
However, in 5.12 something has changed, so I can no longer assign stuff to "
*this*" in a JS library. Anything attached to the main scope comes up as
*undefined* now.
Can anyone point me in the direction of docs explaining this change, and
possibly what the preferred way of closing over variables in a JS library
is from now on?
Best regards,
René Hansen
