How to convert enum to QString?

Question

I am trying to use the Qt reflection for converting enum to QString.

Here is the part of code:

class ModelApple
{
    Q_GADGET
    Q_ENUMS(AppleType)

The following should get you going:

QString convertEnumToQString(ModelApple::AppleType type) {
    const QMetaObject metaObject = ModelApple::staticMetaObject;
    int enumIndex = metaObject.indexOfEnumerator("AppleType");
    if(enumIndex == -1) {
        /* The enum does not contain the specified enum */
        return "";
    }
    QMetaEnum en = metaObject.enumerator(enumIndex);
    return QString(en.valueToKey(type));
}
