- \class QDesignerContainerExtension
- \brief The QDesignerContainerExtension class allows you to add pages to
- a custom multi-page container in Qt Designer's workspace.
- \inmodule QtDesigner
-
- QDesignerContainerExtension provide an interface for creating
- custom container extensions. A container extension consists of a
- collection of functions that \QD needs to manage a multi-page
- container plugin, and a list of the container's pages.
-
- \image containerextension-example.png
-
- \warning This is \e not an extension for container plugins in
- general, only custom \e multi-page containers.
-
- To create a container extension, your extension class must inherit
- from both QObject and QDesignerContainerExtension. For example:
-
- \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_qtdesigner.cpp 6
-
- Since we are implementing an interface, we must ensure that it's
- made known to the meta object system using the Q_INTERFACES()
- macro. This enables \QD to use the qobject_cast() function to
- query for supported interfaces using nothing but a QObject
- pointer.
-
- You must reimplement several functions to enable \QD to manage a
- custom multi-page container widget: \QD uses count() to keep track
- of the number pages in your container, widget() to return the page
- at a given index in the list of the container's pages, and
- currentIndex() to return the list index of the selected page. \QD
- uses the addWidget() function to add a given page to the
- container, expecting it to be appended to the list of pages, while
- it expects the insertWidget() function to add a given page to the
- container by inserting it at a given index.
-
- In \QD the extensions are not created until they are
- required. For that reason you must also create a
- QExtensionFactory, i.e a class that is able to make an instance of
- your extension, and register it using \QD's \l
- {QExtensionManager}{extension manager}.
-
- When a container extension is required, \QD's \l
- {QExtensionManager}{extension manager} will run through all its
- registered factories calling QExtensionFactory::createExtension()
- for each until the first one that is able to create a container
- extension, is found. This factory will then create the extension
- for the plugin.
-
- There are four available types of extensions in \QD:
- QDesignerContainerExtension , QDesignerMemberSheetExtension,
- QDesignerPropertySheetExtension and QDesignerTaskMenuExtension.
- \QD's behavior is the same whether the requested extension is
- associated with a multi page container, a member sheet, a property
- sheet or a task menu.
-
- The QExtensionFactory class provides a standard extension factory,
- and can also be used as an interface for custom extension
- factories. You can either create a new QExtensionFactory and
- reimplement the QExtensionFactory::createExtension() function. For
- example:
-
- \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_qtdesigner.cpp 7
-
- Or you can use an existing factory, expanding the
- QExtensionFactory::createExtension() function to make the factory
- able to create a container extension as well. For example:
-
- \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_qtdesigner.cpp 8
-
- For a complete example using the QDesignerContainerExtension
- class, see the \l {designer/containerextension}{Container
- Extension example}. The example shows how to create a custom
- multi-page plugin for \QD.
