You may find it easier to expose these properties *from*
C++ to QML, using a singleton type (for example)</div>

Yes, I have to control many property values. <br>

I’m not sure how that matters.. see: <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtqml/qqmlengine.html#qmlRegisterSingletonType-2">

<div>You can register your object instance as a singleton,
exposing as many properties/methods as you like - there’s no
limitations and it’s fairly easily done</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Theme properties in Silica are exposed through a singleton,
for example.<br>

Why is the Qt preferred way deprecated in Sailfish?<br>
<pre class="cpp"><span class="type"><a href="http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtqml/qqmlproperty.html">QQmlProperty</a></span><span class="operator">::</span>write(object<span class="operator">,</span> <span class="string">"someNumber"</span><span class="operator">,</span> <span class="number">5000</span>)</pre>
<br>
So much simpler and understandable.<br>
