That is the way we implemented it:

On Qt there are some pitfalls and you has to marshaling the data.

1. Create a Data Class

#include <QObject>
#include <QDBusArgument>
#include <QString>

class MyProgress
{
public:
[...]
    int m_Progress;
    QString m_Message;
    int m_Additional;
};

// this is one of the magic statements 
Q_DECLARE_METATYPE(MyProgress)
QDBusArgument &operator<<(QDBusArgument &argument, const MyProgress& 
parameterProgress);
const QDBusArgument &operator>>(const QDBusArgument &argument, MyProgress& 
parameterProgress);
};

You has to register the metatype and implement the operators. In the 
Constructor you has to add two register Methods 

qRegisterMetaType<MyProgress>();
qDBusRegisterMetaType<MyProgress>();

After this tree registrations your Class MyProgress is known by Qt 
Metatype System. Now you has to implement operators

QDBusArgument &operator<<(QDBusArgument &argument, const MyProgress& 
parameterProgress)
{
    argument.beginStructure();
    argument << parameterProgress.m_Progress;
    argument << parameterProgress.m_Message;
    argument << parameterProgress.m_Additional;
    argument.endStructure();
    return argument;
}
const QDBusArgument &operator>>(const QDBusArgument &argument, MyProgress& 
parameterProgress)
{
    argument.beginStructure();
    argument >> parameterProgress.m_Progress;
    argument >> parameterProgress.m_Message;
    argument >> parameterProgress.m_Additional;
    argument.endStructure();
    return argument;
}

Now you are finished with preparing how to use it. In the Qt Slot of the 
D-Bus call your can pipe it in your class

MyProgress parameterProgress;
property.value<QDBusArgument>() >> parameterProgress;

I hope it helps
