    34     \brief The QScriptExtensionPlugin class provides an abstract base for custom QScript extension plugins.
       
    35 
       
    36     \ingroup plugins
       
    37 
       
    38     QScriptExtensionPlugin is a plugin interface that makes it
       
    39     possible to offer extensions that can be loaded dynamically into
       
    40     applications using the QScriptEngine class.
       
    41 
       
    42     Writing a script extension plugin is achieved by subclassing this
       
    43     base class, reimplementing the pure virtual keys() and initialize()
       
    44     functions, and exporting the class using the Q_EXPORT_PLUGIN2()
       
    45     macro. See \l {How to Create Qt Plugins} for details.

    56     that are implemented in the plugin (e.g. \c{com.mycompany.MyProduct}).

    94   This function is provided for convenience when reimplementing
       
    95   initialize(). It splits the given \a key on \c{'.'} (dot), and
       
    96   ensures that there's a corresponding path of objects in the
       
    97   environment of the given \a engine, creating new objects to complete
       
    98   the path if necessary.  E.g. if the key is "com.trolltech", after
       
    99   the call to setupPackage() the script expression \c{com.trolltech}
       
   100   will evaluate to an object. More specifically, the engine's Global
       
   101   Object will have a property called "com", which in turn has a
       
   102   property called "trolltech".
       
   103 
       
   104   Use this function to avoid global namespace pollution when installing
       
   105   your extensions in the engine.
