Can a slot method be created at runtime?

Question

Hi,

I am creating content (text boxes, images and buttons) at run-time, and can see how to attach an existing slot (added before building) to a dynamically generated button, but can a slot also be created and 'populated' at run-time?

Or do I need to create the slot and ensure Generator = true?

Thanks

Hello Phil,

I'm not sure whether I understand your question. Do you want to create a method implementation dynamically at the runtime? If yes, this would expect the code of the method to be compiled by Chora compiler and by the C compiler. As such it is not possible.

Or your intention is to connect a button with an existing slot method at the runtime? In such case, you assign the slot method to the corresponding property of the button. For example:

Button.OnActivate = SomeObject.DoSomethingSlotMethod;

Does it address your question?
