Remove automatic parenting in Qt.createComponent

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      Qt.createComponent(...) automatically sets the parent of the created object to the running QML engine. This prevents the object from being collected, and thus leaks memory. This should be removed once clients have had an opportunity to update their code to set the parent explicitly.
