ListModel in qml, getting objects from model

I have a ListModel that I fill in the following way:

property ListModel projects: ListModel {}
property Project currentProject : null

function initialization(){
    var comp = Qt.createComponent("Project.qml");
    var object = comp.createObject(parent,{});
    projects.append(object);
    currentProject = projects.get(0)

}
Component.onCompleted: root.initialization();

And I have a error in currentProject = projects.get(0) line. Error text:

main.qml:14: Error: Cannot assign QObject* to Project_QMLTYPE_0*

When you append your Project object to the ListModel, it is the properties of Project object being added to the ListModel (as ListModel roles), not the Project object itself. So, when you use ListModel.get(), the return object is just a object (QObject* to be exact) with the ListModel roles as properties, but not the Project object.

To be more simple, ListModel is not a container for your Project object. It just store the properties of your Project object.
