DESCRIPTION
The QEditorFactory class is used to create editor widgets for QVariant
data types.
Each editor factory provides the createEditor() function which given a
QVariant will create and return a QWidget that can edit that QVariant.
For example if you have a QVariant::String type, a QLineEdit would be
the default editor returned, whereas a QVariant::Int's default editor
would be a QSpinBox.
If you want to create different editors for fields with the same data
type, subclass QEditorFactory and reimplement the createEditor()
function.
See also Database Classes.
MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATIONQEditorFactory::QEditorFactory ( QObject * parent = 0, const char * name = 0 )
Constructs an editor factory with parent parent, called name.
QEditorFactory::~QEditorFactory ()
Destroys the object and frees any allocated resources.
QWidget * QEditorFactory::createEditor ( QWidget * parent, const QVariant & v
) [virtual]
Creates and returns the appropriate editor for the QVariant v. If the
QVariant is invalid, 0 is returned. The parent is passed to the
appropriate editor's constructor.
Reimplemented in QSqlEditorFactory.
QEditorFactory * QEditorFactory::defaultFactory () [static]
Returns an instance of a default editor factory.
void QEditorFactory::installDefaultFactory ( QEditorFactory * factory )
[static]
Replaces the default editor factory with factory. QEditorFactory takes
ownership of factory, and destroys it when it is no longer needed.
