I have a ListViewItem class which inherits from both QListViewItem and a class of my own named Story.

I currently use metaobject properties to get and set values for Story objects. Can I use this to get and set properties for ListViewItem objects? I thought that the metaobject properties would be inherited by ListViewItem, but it doesn't seem to be working. I've tried adding Q_PROPERTY declarations to the ListViewItem class, but that doesn't help.

Any suggestions gratefully received.

Christian --- thanks for your reply.

>> Your class has to inherit from QObject or a subclass for using properties <<

It does: my ListViewItem class inherits from both QListViewItem and a class of my own named Story.

Story inherits from QObject and uses properties.

This works fine -- but not for ListViewItem. When called on a ListViewItem object, for example, metaObject()->findProperty(), for example, never finds anything.

Mysteriously, I can set property values for a ListViewItem using a set method and then get the property using property().
