/*!
\class QDeclarativeListReference
\since 4.7
\module QtDeclarative
\brief The QDeclarativeListReference class allows the manipulation of QDeclarativeListProperty properties.

QDeclarativeListReference allows C++ programs to read from, and assign values to a QML list property in a
simple and type safe way.  A QDeclarativeListReference can be created by passing an object and property
name or through a QDeclarativeProperty instance.  These two are equivalant:

\code
QDeclarativeListReference ref1(object, "children");

QDeclarativeProperty ref2(object, "children");
QDeclarativeListReference ref2 = qvariant_cast<QDeclarativeListReference>(ref2.read());
\endcode

Not all QML list properties support all operations.  A set of methods, canAppend(), canAt(), canClear() and
canCount() allow programs to query whether an operation is supported on a given property.

QML list properties are typesafe.  Only QObject's that derive from the correct base class can be assigned to
the list.  The listElementType() method can be used to query the QMetaObject of the QObject type supported.
Attempting to add objects of the incorrect type to a list property will fail.

Like with normal lists, when accessing a list element by index, it is the callers responsibility to ensure 
that it does not request an out of range element using the count() method before calling at().

QDeclarativeListReference instances even after \a object is deleted.

Passing \a engine is required to access some QML created list properties.  If in doubt, and an engine
is available, pass it.

\class QDeclarativeListProperty
\since 4.7
\brief The QDeclarativeListProperty class allows applications to expose list-like 
properties to QML.

QML has many list properties, where more than one object value can be assigned.
The use of a list property from QML looks like this:

\code
FruitBasket {
    fruit: [ 
        Apple {},
        Orange{},
        Banana{}
    ]
}
\endcode

The QDeclarativeListProperty encapsulates a group of function pointers that represet the
set of actions QML can perform on the list - adding items, retrieving items and
clearing the list.  In the future, additional operations may be supported.  All 
list properties must implement the append operation, but the rest are optional.

To provide a list property, a C++ class must implement the operation callbacks, 
and then return an appropriate QDeclarativeListProperty value from the property getter.
List properties should have no setter.  In the example above, the Q_PROPERTY()
declarative will look like this:

\code
Q_PROPERTY(QDeclarativeListProperty<Fruit> fruit READ fruit);
\endcode

QML list properties are typesafe - in this case \c {Fruit} is a QObject type that 
\c {Apple}, \c {Orange} and \c {Banana} all derive from.

\note QDeclarativeListProperty can only be used for lists of QObject-derived object pointers.

/*!
\fn QDeclarativeListProperty::QDeclarativeListProperty(QObject *object, QList<T *> &list)

Convenience constructor for making a QDeclarativeListProperty value from an existing
QList \a list.  The \a list reference must remain valid for as long as \a object
exists.  \a object must be provided.

Generally this constructor should not be used in production code, as a 
writable QList violates QML's memory management rules.  However, this constructor
can very useful while prototyping.

Construct a QDeclarativeListProperty from a set of operation functions.  An opaque \a data handle
may be passed which can be accessed from within the operation functions.  The list property 
remains valid while \a object exists.
