    Default How to get result from javascript code run by runJavaScript in QtWebengine?

    How can I get the result from javascript run by runJavaScript in QtWebengine?

    I want to get result from the js run by runJavaScript. The result is formed after some time in js, but since js returns immediately, I can not get the mature result. How can I modify the js code or the C++ code to get the mature result? I know I can use QWebChannel to notify C++ of the mature result at appropriate time but that is a little complex. Can I delay the return time of js code so it can return with the matured result?

    C++:

    Qt Code:
    1. page()->runJavaScript(js,[this](const QVariant &v) {
    2. qDebug()<<v.toString();
    3. }
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    js:

    Qt Code:
    1. var result="immature result";
    2. function fun()
    3. {
    4. result="mature result";
    5. }
    6. setTimeout(fun,2000);
    7. result;
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode

    Your function will only be executed asynchronously after two seconds so the only option I see is to run another script afterwards and fetch the result. Or use QWebChannel as you have already stated yourself.
    Your biological and technological distinctiveness will be added to our own. Resistance is futile.
