Hi there. I've started work on a Qt JavaScript API. You can see my very early attempts at http://www.philipashmore.com/html5/timeline/
The idea is to implement (part of) Qt's Widget class hierarchy in JavaScript on platforms that don't use QtWebkit2 (like Google Chrome), and to provide a native plug-in that intercepts the JavaScript URL's to provide a native implementation from QtWebkit2 itself, usable from the JavaScript running in the web page. I'm sure you can see how the reverse situation maps - the same JavaScript code could run just as well in v8 and would still be talking to native Qt QWidgets. Am I re-inventing the wheel here, as Qt5 is planning to do something like this anyway? Are there tools that can automatically sketch the QWidget class hierarchy (including enums) in a form that can be used to implement it in JavaScript as well as being able to expose the c++ QWidget hierarchy to JavaScript? Also, I realise that html/html5 is going to have some inadequacies (child windows, printing, IPC ...). Should I wait for html6?
