From c0c5890b3f9cce4f4d75903677095e8d7da8026c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bea Lam Date: Fri, 3 Aug 2012 16:55:25 +1000 Subject: Restore QML/C++ extensions tutorial and fix plugin docs and examples This restores the "Writing QML Extensions with C++" tutorial that was removed during the recent QML doc restructure. This also updates outdated docs in "Creating C++ Plugins for QML" that referred to the use of Q_EXPORT_PLUGIN2() and such as the process for writing QML plugins in Qt 5 has changed. Note the plugins.json line was removed from examples/qml/cppextensions/plugins/plugins.pro since this json file was removed in a previous commit, as plugins no longer require the empty json file.

The end result will be a simple Pie Chart display implemented by +several custom QML types connected together through QML features like bindings and +signals, and made available to the QML runtime through a plugin. + +To begin with, let's create a new QML type called "PieChart" that has two properties: a name +and a color. We will make it available in a \l {Modules}{module} called "Charts", with +a module version of 1.0. + +We want this \c PieChart type to be usable from QML like this: + +\code + import Charts 1.0 + + PieChart { + width: 100; height: 100 + name: "A simple pie chart" + color: "red" + } +\endcode + +To do this, we need a C++ class that encapsulates this \c PieChart type and its two +properties. Since QML makes extensive use of Qt's \l{Meta-Object System}{meta object system}, +this new class must: + +\list +\li Inherit from QObject +\li Declare its properties using the Q_PROPERTY macro +\endlist + +Here is our \c PieChart class, defined in \c piechart.h: + +\snippet examples/tutorials/extending/chapter1-basics/piechart.h 0 + +The class inherits from QQuickPaintedItem because we want to override +QQuickPaintedItem::paint() in perform drawing operations with the QPainter API. +If the class just represented some data type and was not an item that actually needed +to be displayed, it could simply inherit from QObject. Or, if we want to extend the +functionality of an existing QObject-based class, it could inherit from that class instead. +Alternatively, if we want to create a visual item that doesn't need to perform drawing +operations with the QPainter API, we can just subclass QQuickItem. + +The \c PieChart class defines the two properties, \c name and \c color, with the Q_PROPERTY macro, +and overrides QQuickPaintedItem::paint(). The class implementation in \c piechart.cpp +simply sets and returns the \c m_name and \c m_color values as appropriate, and +implements \c paint() to draw a simple pie chart. It also turns off the +QGraphicsItem::ItemHasNoContents flag to enable painting: + +\snippet examples/tutorials/extending/chapter1-basics/piechart.cpp 0 +\dots 0 +\snippet examples/tutorials/extending/chapter1-basics/piechart.cpp 1 + +Now that we have defined the \c PieChart type, we will use it from QML. The \c app.qml +file creates a \c PieChart item and display the pie chart's details +using a standard QML \l Text item: + +\snippet examples/tutorials/extending/chapter1-basics/app.qml 0 + +Notice that although the color is specified as a string in QML, it is automatically +converted to a QColor object for the PieChart \c color property. Automatic conversions are +provided for various other \l {QML Basic Types}{basic types}; for example, a string +like "640x480" can be automatically converted to a QSize value. + +We'll also create a C++ application that uses a QQuickView to run and +display \c app.qml. The application must register the \c PieChart type +using the qmlRegisterType() function, to allow it to be used from QML. If +you don't register the type, \c app.qml won't be able to create a \c PieChart. + +Here is the application \c main.cpp: + +\snippet examples/tutorials/extending/chapter1-basics/main.cpp 0 + +This call to qmlRegisterType() registers the \c PieChart type as a type called "PieChart", in a module named "Charts", +with a module version of 1.0. + +Lastly, we write a \c .pro project file that includes the files and the \c declarative library: + +\quotefile examples/tutorials/extending/chapter1-basics/chapter1-basics.pro + +Now we can build and run the application: + +\image extending-tutorial-chapter1.png + +Try it yourself with the code in Qt's \c examples/tutorials/extending/chapter1-basics directory. +*/ + + +/*! +\title Chapter 2: Connecting to C++ Methods and Signals + +\example examples/tutorials/extending/chapter2-methods + +Suppose we want \c PieChart to have a "clearChart()" method that erases the +chart and then emits a "chartCleared" signal.

Both of these approaches are valid. + +The \c clearChart() method simply changes the color to Qt::transparent, +repaints the chart, then emits the \c chartCleared() signal: + +\snippet examples/tutorials/extending/chapter2-methods/piechart.cpp 0 + +Now when we run the application and click the window, the pie chart +disappears, and the application outputs: + +\code + The chart has been cleared +\endcode + +Try out the example yourself with the updated code in Qt's \c examples/tutorials/extending/chapter2-methods directory. + +*/ + +/*! +\title Chapter 3: Adding Property Bindings + +\example examples/tutorials/extending/chapter3-bindings + +Property binding is a powerful feature of QML that allows values of different +elements to be synchronized automatically. It uses signals to notify and update +other elements' values when property values are changed. + +Let's enable property bindings for the \c color property. That means +if we have code like this: + +\snippet examples/tutorials/extending/chapter3-bindings/app.qml 0 + +\image extending-tutorial-chapter3.png + +The "color: chartA.color" statement binds the \c color value of +\c chartB to the \c color of \c chartA. +Whenever \c chartA's \c color value changes, \c chartB's \c color value +updates to the same value. When the window is clicked, the \c onClicked +handler in the MouseArea changes the color of \c chartA, thereby changing +both charts to the color blue. + +It's easy to enable property binding for the \c color property. +We add a \l{Qt's Property System}{NOTIFY} feature to its Q_PROPERTY() declaration to indicate that a "colorChanged" signal +is emitted whenever the value changes. + +\snippet examples/tutorials/extending/chapter3-bindings/piechart.h 0 +\dots +\snippet examples/tutorials/extending/chapter3-bindings/piechart.h 1 +\dots +\snippet examples/tutorials/extending/chapter3-bindings/piechart.h 2 +\dots +\snippet examples/tutorials/extending/chapter3-bindings/piechart.h 3 + +Then, we emit this signal in \c setPieSlice(): + +\snippet examples/tutorials/extending/chapter3-bindings/piechart.cpp 0 + +It's important for \c setColor() to check that the color value has actually changed +before emitting \c colorChanged(). This ensures the signal is not emitted unnecessarily and +also prevents loops when other elements respond to the value change. + +The use of bindings is essential to QML. You should always add NOTIFY +signals for properties if they are able to be implemented, so that your +properties can be used in bindings. Properties that cannot be bound cannot be +automatically updated and cannot be used as flexibly in QML. Also, since +bindings are invoked so often and relied upon in QML usage, users of your +custom QML types may see unexpected behavior if bindings are not implemented. + +*/ + +/*! +\title Chapter 4: Using Custom Property Types + +\example examples/tutorials/extending/chapter4-customPropertyTypes + +The \c PieChart type currently has a string-type property and a color-type property. +It could have many other types of properties. For example, it could have an +int-type property to store an identifier for each chart: + +\code + // C++ + class PieChart : public QQuickPaintedItem + { + Q_PROPERTY(int chartId READ chartId WRITE setChartId NOTIFY chartIdChanged) + ... + + public: + void setChartId(int chartId); + int chartId() const; + ... + + signals: + void chartIdChanged(); + }; + + // QML + PieChart { + ... + chartId: 100 + } +\endcode + +Aside from \c int, we could use various other property types. Many of the Qt +data types such as QColor, QSize and QRect are automatically supported from QML. +(See \l {Data Type Conversion Between QML and C++} documentation for a full list.) + +If we want to create a property whose type is not supported by QML by default, +we need to register the type with the QML engine. + +For example, let's replace the use of the \c property with a type called +"PieSlice" that has a \c color property. Instead of assigning a color, +we assign an \c PieSlice value which itself contains a \c color: + +\snippet examples/tutorials/extending/chapter4-customPropertyTypes/app.qml 0 + +Like \c PieChart, this new \c PieSlice type inherits from QQuickPaintedItem and declares +its properties with Q_PROPERTY(): + +\snippet examples/tutorials/extending/chapter4-customPropertyTypes/pieslice.h 0 + +To use it in \c PieChart, we modify the \c color property declaration +and associated method signatures: + +\snippet examples/tutorials/extending/chapter4-customPropertyTypes/piechart.h 0 +\dots +\snippet examples/tutorials/extending/chapter4-customPropertyTypes/piechart.h 1 +\dots +\snippet examples/tutorials/extending/chapter4-customPropertyTypes/piechart.h 2 +\dots +\snippet examples/tutorials/extending/chapter4-customPropertyTypes/piechart.h 3 + +There is one thing to be aware of when implementing \c setPieSlice().

The QQmlListProperty class enables the +creation of list properties in QML extensions. We replace the \c pieSlice() +function with a \c slices() function that returns a list of slices, and add +an internal \c append_slice() function (discussed below). We also use a QList to +store the internal list of slices as \c m_slices: + +\snippet examples/tutorials/extending/chapter5-listproperties/piechart.h 0 +\dots +\snippet examples/tutorials/extending/chapter5-listproperties/piechart.h 1 +\dots +\snippet examples/tutorials/extending/chapter5-listproperties/piechart.h 2 + +Although the \c slices property does not have an associated \c WRITE function, +it is still modifiable because of the way QQmlListProperty works. +In the \c PieChart implementation, we implement \c PieChart::slices() to +return a QQmlListProperty value and indicate that the internal +\c PieChart::append_slice() function is to be called whenever a request is made from QML +to add items to the list: + +\snippet examples/tutorials/extending/chapter5-listproperties/piechart.cpp 0 + +The \c append_slice() function simply sets the parent item as before, +and adds the new item to the \c m_slices list. As you can see, the append function for a +QQmlListProperty is called with two arguments: the list property, and +the item that is to be appended. + +The \c PieSlice class has also been modified to include \c fromAngle and \c angleSpan +properties and to draw the slice according to these values. This is a straightforward +modification if you have read the previous pages in this tutorial, so the code is not shown here. + +The complete code can be seen in the updated \c examples/tutorials/extending/chapter5-listproperties directory. + +*/ + + +/*! +\title Chapter 6: Writing an Extension Plugin + +\example examples/tutorials/extending/chapter6-plugins + +Currently the \c PieChart and \c PieSlice types are used by \c app.qml, +which is displayed using a QQuickView in a C++ application. An alternative +way to use our QML extension is to create a plugin library to make it available +to the QML engine. This would allow the \c PieChart and \c PieSlice types to be +imported as part of a module by any QML application, instead of restricting these +types to be only used by the one application. + +The setps for creating a plugin are described in \l {Creating C++ Plugins for QML}. +To start with, we create a plugin class named \c ChartsPlugin.
