<h2>Detailed Description</h2>
<p>The QDeclarativeExpression class evaluates JavaScript in a QML context.</p>
<p>For example, given a file <tt>main.qml</tt> like this:</p>
<pre class="qml"> import QtQuick 1.0

<span class="name">width</span>: <span class="number">200</span>; <span class="name">height</span>: <span class="number">200</span>
}</pre>
