[править] Подробное описание

The QMetaObject class contains meta-information about Qt objects.

The Qt Meta-Object System in Qt is responsible for the signals and slots inter-object communication mechanism, runtime type information, and the Qt property system. A single QMetaObject instance is created for each QObject subclass that is used in an application, and this instance stores all the meta-information for the QObject subclass. This object is available as QObject::metaObject().

This class is not normally required for application programming, but it is useful if you write meta-applications, such as scripting engines or GUI builders.

The functions you are most likely to find useful are these:

• className() returns the name of a class.
• superClass() returns the superclass's meta-object.
• method() and methodCount() provide information about a class's meta-methods (signals, slots and other member functions).
• enumerator() and enumeratorCount() and provide information about a class's enumerators.
• propertyCount() and property() provide information about a class's properties.

The index functions indexOfMethod(), indexOfEnumerator(), and indexOfProperty() map names of member functions, enumerators, or properties to indexes in the meta-object. For example, Qt uses indexOfMethod() internally when you connect a signal to a slot.

Classes can also have a list of name--value pairs of additional class information, stored in QMetaClassInfo objects. The number of pairs is returned by classInfoCount(), single pairs are returned by classInfo(), and you can search for pairs with indexOfClassInfo().

See also QMetaClassInfo, QMetaEnum, QMetaMethod, QMetaProperty, QMetaType, and Meta-Object System.

[править] Описание функций-членов

[править]

bool QMetaObject::checkConnectArgs ( const char * signal, const char * method ) [static]

Returns true if the signal and method arguments are compatible; otherwise returns false.

Both signal and method are expected to be normalized.

See also normalizedSignature().

[править]

QMetaClassInfo QMetaObject::classInfo ( int index ) const

Returns the meta-data for the item of class information with the given index.

Пример:

 class MyClass
 {
     Q_OBJECT
     Q_CLASSINFO("author", "Sabrina Schweinsteiger")
     Q_CLASSINFO("url", "http://doc.moosesoft.co.uk/1.0/")
 
 public:
     ...
 };

See also classInfoCount(), classInfoOffset(), and indexOfClassInfo().

[править]

int QMetaObject::classInfoCount () const

Returns the number of items of class information in this class.

See also classInfo(), classInfoOffset(), and indexOfClassInfo().

[править]

int QMetaObject::classInfoOffset () const

Returns the class information offset for this class; i.e. the index position of this class's first class information item.

If the class has no superclasses with class information, the offset is 0; otherwise the offset is the sum of all the class information items in the class's superclasses.

See also classInfo(), classInfoCount(), and indexOfClassInfo().

[править]

const char * QMetaObject::className () const

Returns the class name.

See also superClass().

[править]

void QMetaObject::connectSlotsByName ( QObject * object ) [static]

Searches recursively for all child objects of the given object, and connects matching signals from them to slots of object that follow the following form:

 void on_<widget name>_<signal name>(<signal parameters>);

Let's assume our object has a child object of type QPushButton with the object name button1. The slot to catch the button's clicked() signal would be:

 void on_button1_clicked();

See also QObject::setObjectName().

[править]

QMetaEnum QMetaObject::enumerator ( int index ) const

Returns the meta-data for the enumerator with the given index.

See also enumeratorCount(), enumeratorOffset(), and indexOfEnumerator().

[править]

int QMetaObject::enumeratorCount () const

Returns the number of enumerators in this class.

See also enumerator(), enumeratorOffset(), and indexOfEnumerator().

[править]

int QMetaObject::enumeratorOffset () const

Returns the enumerator offset for this class; i.e. the index position of this class's first enumerator.

If the class has no superclasses with enumerators, the offset is 0; otherwise the offset is the sum of all the enumerators in the class's superclasses.

See also enumerator(), enumeratorCount(), and indexOfEnumerator().

[править]

int QMetaObject::indexOfClassInfo ( const char * name ) const

Finds class information item name and returns its index; otherwise returns -1.

See also classInfo(), classInfoCount(), and classInfoOffset().

[править]

int QMetaObject::indexOfEnumerator ( const char * name ) const

Finds enumerator name and returns its index; otherwise returns -1.

See also enumerator(), enumeratorCount(), and enumeratorOffset().

[править]

int QMetaObject::indexOfMethod ( const char * method ) const

Finds method and returns its index; otherwise returns -1.

Note that the method has to be in normalized form, as returned by normalizedSignature().

See also method(), methodCount(), methodOffset(), and normalizedSignature().

[править]

int QMetaObject::indexOfProperty ( const char * name ) const

Finds property name and returns its index; otherwise returns -1.

See also property(), propertyCount(), and propertyOffset().

[править]

int QMetaObject::indexOfSignal ( const char * signal ) const

Finds signal and returns its index; otherwise returns -1.

This is the same as indexOfMethod(), except that it will return -1 if the method exists but isn't a signal.

Note that the signal has to be in normalized form, as returned by normalizedSignature().

See also indexOfMethod(), normalizedSignature(), method(), methodCount(), and methodOffset().

[править]

int QMetaObject::indexOfSlot ( const char * slot ) const

Finds slot and returns its index; otherwise returns -1.

This is the same as indexOfMethod(), except that it will return -1 if the method exists but isn't a slot.

See also indexOfMethod(), method(), methodCount(), and methodOffset().

[править]

bool QMetaObject::invokeMethod ( QObject * obj, const char * member, Qt::ConnectionType type, QGenericReturnArgument ret, QGenericArgument val0 = QGenericArgument( 0 ), QGenericArgument val1 = QGenericArgument(), QGenericArgument val2 = QGenericArgument(), QGenericArgument val3 = QGenericArgument(), QGenericArgument val4 = QGenericArgument(), QGenericArgument val5 = QGenericArgument(), QGenericArgument val6 = QGenericArgument(), QGenericArgument val7 = QGenericArgument(), QGenericArgument val8 = QGenericArgument(), QGenericArgument val9 = QGenericArgument() ) [static]

Invokes the member (a signal or a slot name) on the object obj. Returns true if the member could be invoked. Returns false if there is no such member or the parameters did not match.

The invocation can be either synchronous or asynchronous, depending on type:

• If type is Qt::DirectConnection, the member will be invoked immediately.
• If type is Qt::QueuedConnection, a QEvent will be sent and the member is invoked as soon as the application enters the main event loop.
• If type is Qt::AutoConnection, the member is invoked synchronously if obj lives in the same thread as the caller; otherwise it will invoke the member asynchronously.

The return value of the member function call is placed in ret. If the invocation is asynchronous, the return value cannot be evaluated. You can pass up to ten arguments (val0, val1, val2, val3, val4, val5, val6, val7, val8, and val9) to the member function.

QGenericArgument and QGenericReturnArgument are internal helper classes. Because signals and slots can be dynamically invoked, you must enclose the arguments using the Q_ARG() and Q_RETURN_ARG() macros. Q_ARG() takes a type name and a const reference of that type; Q_RETURN_ARG() takes a type name and a non-const reference.

To asynchronously invoke the animateClick() slot on a QPushButton:

 QMetaObject::invokeMethod(pushButton, "animateClick",
                           Qt::QueuedConnection);

With asynchronous method invocations, the parameters must be of types that are known to Qt's meta-object system, because Qt needs to copy the arguments to store them in an event behind the scenes. Если вы пытаетесь использовать соединение с очередями и получаете сообщение об ошибке

 QMetaObject::invokeMethod: Unable to handle unregistered datatype 'MyType'

call qRegisterMetaType() to register the data type before you call invokeMethod().

To synchronously invoke the compute(QString, int, double) slot on some arbitrary object obj retrieve its return value:

 QString retVal;
 QMetaObject::invokeMethod(obj, "compute", Qt::DirectConnection,
                           Q_RETURN_ARG(QString, retVal),
                           Q_ARG(QString, "sqrt"),
                           Q_ARG(int, 42),
                           Q_ARG(double, 9.7));

If the "compute" slot does not take exactly one QString, one int and one double in the specified order, the call will fail.

See also Q_ARG(), Q_RETURN_ARG(), and qRegisterMetaType().

bool QMetaObject::invokeMethod ( QObject * obj, const char * member, QGenericReturnArgument ret, QGenericArgument val0 = QGenericArgument( 0 ), QGenericArgument val1 = QGenericArgument(), QGenericArgument val2 = QGenericArgument(), QGenericArgument val3 = QGenericArgument(), QGenericArgument val4 = QGenericArgument(), QGenericArgument val5 = QGenericArgument(), QGenericArgument val6 = QGenericArgument(), QGenericArgument val7 = QGenericArgument(), QGenericArgument val8 = QGenericArgument(), QGenericArgument val9 = QGenericArgument() ) [static]

Эта перегруженная функция предоставлена для удобства.

This overload always invokes the member using the connection type Qt::AutoConnection.

Эта перегруженная функция предоставлена для удобства.

This overload invokes the member using the connection type Qt::AutoConnection and ignores return values.

[править]

QMetaMethod QMetaObject::method ( int index ) const

Returns the meta-data for the method with the given index.

See also methodCount(), methodOffset(), and indexOfMethod().

[править]

int QMetaObject::methodCount () const

Returns the number of methods in this class. These include ordinary methods, signals, and slots.

See also method(), methodOffset(), and indexOfMethod().

[править]

int QMetaObject::methodOffset () const

Returns the method offset for this class; i.e. the index position of this class's first member function.

The offset is the sum of all the methods in the class's superclasses (which is always positive since QObject has the deleteLater() slot and a destroyed() signal).

See also method(), methodCount(), and indexOfMethod().

[править]

QByteArray QMetaObject::normalizedSignature ( const char * method ) [static]

Normalizes the signature of the given method.

Qt uses normalized signatures to decide whether two given signals and slots are compatible. Normalization reduces whitespace to a minimum, moves 'const' to the front where appropriate, removes 'const' from value types and replaces const references with values.

See also checkConnectArgs() and normalizedType().

[править]

QByteArray QMetaObject::normalizedType ( const char * type ) [static]

Normalizes a type.

See QMetaObject::normalizedSignature() for a description on how Qt normalizes.

Пример:

 QByteArray normType = QMetaObject::normalizedType(" int    const  *");
 // normType is now "const int*"

Эта функция была введена в Qt 4.2.

See also normalizedSignature().

[править]

QMetaProperty QMetaObject::property ( int index ) const

Returns the meta-data for the property with the given index. If no such property exists, a null QMetaProperty is returned.

See also propertyCount(), propertyOffset(), and indexOfProperty().

[править]

int QMetaObject::propertyCount () const

Returns the number of properties in this class.

See also property(), propertyOffset(), and indexOfProperty().

[править]

int QMetaObject::propertyOffset () const

Returns the property offset for this class; i.e. the index position of this class's first property.

The offset is the sum of all the properties in the class's superclasses (which is always positive since QObject has the name() property).

See also property(), propertyCount(), and indexOfProperty().

[править]

const QMetaObject * QMetaObject::superClass () const

Returns the meta-object of the superclass, or 0 if there is no such object.

See also className().

[править]

QMetaProperty QMetaObject::userProperty () const

Returns the property that has the USER flag set to true.

Эта функция была введена в Qt 4.2.

See also QMetaProperty::isUser().
