Add list of reserved words not to be used as QML ids

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      http://doc.trolltech.com/4.7/qdeclarativeintroduction.html says about QML ids:

      Note that an id must begin with a lower-case letter or an underscore, and cannot contain characters other than letters, numbers and underscores.

      But actually also any JavaScript keywords are forbidden, and 'as' (reserved keyword specifically in QML, I'm not sure whether there are also others).

      List of JavaScript keywords can be found in https://developer.mozilla.org/en/JavaScript/Reference/Reserved_Words or http://www.ecma-international.org/publications/files/ECMA-ST/ECMA-262.pdf
