	Gets widget used in the configuration page area.
QObject *	objectBase ()
	Returns the QObject* base of the interface.
const QObject *	objectBase () const
	Returns a const QObject* base of the interface.
bool	supportsApply () const
	Indicates if the page supports apply operations. When a page only displays information, ExtensionSystemConfig, we don't want the apply button to be active. This function thus controls the activity of the apply button.

Detailed Description

The ObserverWidgetConfig widget is used in the Clipboard Example to demonstrate the settings update request capability of QtilitiesApplication.

QtilitiesApplication::newSettingsUpdateRequest() allows settings update requests to be sent anywhere in an application. This allows objects which depends on the settings to update themselves when the settings updates.

This class shows options for the two observer widgets found in the Clipboard Example. When the user clicks apply, the widgets will receive the settings update requests and update themselves accordingly. The update requests are delivered by the QtilitiesApplication::instance()->settingsUpdateRequest() signal.

Member Function Documentation

Qtilities::Core::QtilitiesCategory Qtilities::Examples::Clipboard::ObserverWidgetConfig::configPageCategory ( ) const

virtual

Gets the category of the config page.

If you want other parts of your code to be able to modify the category of your page, implement configPageCategory() like this:

if (IConfigPage::configPageCategory().isEmpty())
    return QtilitiesCategory("Your Category");
else
    return IConfigPage::configPageCategory();

If not, just return your caregory.

setConfigPageCategory()

Reimplemented from Qtilities::CoreGui::Interfaces::IConfigPage.

QIcon Qtilities::Examples::Clipboard::ObserverWidgetConfig::configPageIcon ( ) const

virtual

Gets the icon used for the page in the configuration widget.

See also:

setConfigPageIcon()

Implements Qtilities::CoreGui::Interfaces::IConfigPage.

const QObject* Qtilities::Examples::Clipboard::ObserverWidgetConfig::objectBase ( ) const

inlinevirtual

Returns a const QObject* base of the interface.

This function can be used in const methods, but make sure that you don't modify things that should stay const. An example where this is used is when we want to get a property on an object in a const method. This is a const operation.

Implements Qtilities::Core::Interfaces::IObjectBase.
