<div class="descr">
<h2>Detailed Description</h2>
<p>The QScriptContext class represents a Qt Script function invocation.</p>
<p>A QScriptContext provides access to the `this' object and arguments passed to a script function. You typically want to access this information when you're writing a native (C++) function (see <a href="qscriptengine.html#newFunction">QScriptEngine::newFunction</a>()) that will be called from script code. For example, when the script code</p>
<pre class="cpp"> foo(<span class="number">20.5</span><span class="operator">,</span> <span class="string">"hello"</span><span class="operator">,</span> <span class="keyword">new</span> Object())</pre>
<p>is evaluated, a QScriptContext will be created, and the context will carry the arguments as QScriptValues; in this particular case, the arguments will be one <a href="qscriptvalue.html">QScriptValue</a> containing the number 20.5, a second <a href="qscriptvalue.html">QScriptValue</a> containing the string <tt>"hello"</tt>, and a third <a href="qscriptvalue.html">QScriptValue</a> containing a Qt Script object.</p>
<p>Use <a href="qscriptcontext.html#argumentCount">argumentCount</a>() to get the number of arguments passed to the function, and <a href="qscriptcontext.html#argument">argument</a>() to get an argument at a certain index. The <a href="qscriptcontext.html#argumentsObject">argumentsObject</a>() function returns a Qt Script array object containing all the arguments; you can use the <a href="qscriptvalueiterator.html">QScriptValueIterator</a> to iterate over its elements, or pass the array on as arguments to another script function using <a href="qscriptvalue.html#call">QScriptValue::call</a>().</p>
<p>Use <a href="qscriptcontext.html#thisObject">thisObject</a>() to get the `this' object associated with the function call, and <a href="qscriptcontext.html#setThisObject">setThisObject</a>() to set the `this' object. If you are implementing a native "instance method", you typically fetch the <a href="qscriptcontext.html#thisObject">thisObject</a>() and access one or more of its properties:</p>
<pre class="cpp"> <span class="type"><a href="qscriptvalue.html">QScriptValue</a></span> Person_prototype_fullName(<span class="type">QScriptContext</span> <span class="operator">*</span>context<span class="operator">,</span> <span class="type"><a href="qscriptengine.html">QScriptEngine</a></span> <span class="operator">*</span>engine)
{
<span class="type"><a href="qscriptvalue.html">QScriptValue</a></span> self <span class="operator">=</span> context<span class="operator">-</span><span class="operator">></span>thisObject();
<span class="type"><a href="qstring.html">QString</a></span> result;
result <span class="operator">+</span><span class="operator">=</span> self<span class="operator">.</span>property(<span class="string">"firstName"</span>)<span class="operator">.</span>toString();
result <span class="operator">+</span><span class="operator">=</span> QLatin1String(<span class="string">" "</span>);
result <span class="operator">+</span><span class="operator">=</span> self<span class="operator">.</span>property(<span class="string">"lastName"</span>)<span class="operator">.</span>toString();
<span class="keyword">return</span> result;
}</pre>
<p>Use <a href="qscriptcontext.html#isCalledAsConstructor">isCalledAsConstructor</a>() to determine if the function was called as a constructor (e.g. <tt>"new foo()"</tt> (as constructor) or just <tt>"foo()"</tt>). When a function is called as a constructor, the <a href="qscriptcontext.html#thisObject">thisObject</a>() contains the newly constructed object that the function is expected to initialize.</p>
<p>Use <a href="qscriptcontext.html#throwValue">throwValue</a>() or <a href="qscriptcontext.html#throwError">throwError</a>() to throw an exception.</p>
<p>Use <a href="qscriptcontext.html#callee">callee</a>() to obtain the <a href="qscriptvalue.html">QScriptValue</a> that represents the function being called. This can for example be used to call the function recursively.</p>
<p>Use <a href="qscriptcontext.html#parentContext">parentContext</a>() to get a pointer to the context that precedes this context in the activation stack. This is mostly useful for debugging purposes (e.g. when constructing some form of backtrace).</p>
<p>The <a href="qscriptcontext.html#activationObject">activationObject</a>() function returns the object that is used to hold the local variables associated with this function call. You can replace the activation object by calling <a href="qscriptcontext.html#setActivationObject">setActivationObject</a>(). A typical usage of these functions is when you want script code to be evaluated in the context of the parent context, e.g. to implement an include() function:</p>
<pre class="cpp"> <span class="type"><a href="qscriptvalue.html">QScriptValue</a></span> myInclude(<span class="type">QScriptContext</span> <span class="operator">*</span>ctx<span class="operator">,</span> <span class="type"><a href="qscriptengine.html">QScriptEngine</a></span> <span class="operator">*</span>eng)
{
<span class="type"><a href="qstring.html">QString</a></span> fileName <span class="operator">=</span> ctx<span class="operator">-</span><span class="operator">></span>argument(<span class="number">0</span>)<span class="operator">.</span>toString();
<span class="type"><a href="qstring.html">QString</a></span> contents <span class="operator">=</span> readTheFile(fileName);
ctx<span class="operator">-</span><span class="operator">></span>setActivationObject(ctx<span class="operator">-</span><span class="operator">></span>parentContext()<span class="operator">-</span><span class="operator">></span>activationObject());
ctx<span class="operator">-</span><span class="operator">></span>setThisObject(ctx<span class="operator">-</span><span class="operator">></span>parentContext()<span class="operator">-</span><span class="operator">></span>thisObject());
<span class="keyword">return</span> eng<span class="operator">-</span><span class="operator">></span>evaluate(contents<span class="operator">,</span> fileName);
}</pre>
<p>Use <a href="qscriptcontext.html#backtrace">backtrace</a>() to get a human-readable backtrace associated with this context. This can be useful for debugging purposes when implementing native functions. The <a href="qscriptcontext.html#toString">toString</a>() function provides a string representation of the context. (<a href="qscriptcontextinfo.html">QScriptContextInfo</a> provides more detailed debugging-related information about the QScriptContext.)</p>
<p>Use <a href="qscriptcontext.html#engine">engine</a>() to obtain a pointer to the <a href="qscriptengine.html">QScriptEngine</a> that this context resides in.</p>
