These are all @p actions -- events that the + * user causes to happen. The KAction class allows the developer to + * deal with these actions in an easy and intuitive manner. + * + * Specifically, the KAction class encapsulated the various attributes + * to an event/action. For instance, an action might have an icon + * that goes along with it (a clipboard for a "paste" action or + * scissors for a "cut" action). The action might have some text to + * describe the action. It will certainly have a method or function + * that actually @p executes the action! All these attributes + * are contained within the KAction object. + * + * The advantage of dealing with Actions is that you can manipulate + * the Action without regard to the GUI representation of it. For + * instance, in the "normal" way of dealing with actions like "cut", + * you would manually insert a item for Cut into a menu and a button + * into a toolbar. If you want to disable the cut action for a moment + * (maybe nothing is selected), you woud have to hunt down the pointer + * to the menu item and the toolbar button and disable both + * individually. Setting the menu item and toolbar item up uses very + * similar code - but has to be done twice! + * + * With the Action concept, you simply "plug" the Action into whatever + * GUI element you want. The KAction class will then take care of + * correctly defining the menu item (with icons, accelerators, text, + * etc) or toolbar button.. or whatever. From then on, if you + * manipulate the Action at all, the effect will propogate through all + * GUI representations of it. Back to the "cut" example: if you want + * to disable the Cut Action, you would simply do + * 'cutAction->setEnabled(false)' and the menuitem and button would + * instantly be disabled! + * + * This is the biggest advantage to the Action concept -- there is a + * one-to-one relationship between the "real" action and @p all + * GUI representations of it. + * + * KAction emits the activated() signal if the user activated the + * corresponding GUI element ( menu item, toolbar button, etc. ) + * + * If you are in the situation of wanting to map the activated() + * signal of multiple action objects to one slot, with a special + * argument bound to each action, then you might consider using + * @ref QSignalMapper . A tiny example: + * + * <PRE> + * QSignalMapper *desktopNumberMapper = new QSignalMapper( this ); + * connect( desktopNumberMapper, SIGNAL( mapped( int ) ), + * this, SLOT( moveWindowToDesktop( int ) ) ); + * + * for ( uint i = 0; i < numberOfDesktops; ++i ) { + * KAction *desktopAction = new KAction( i18n( "Move Window to Desktop %i" ).arg( i ), ... ); + * connect( desktopAction, SIGNAL( activated() ), desktopNumberMapper, SLOT( map() ) ); + * desktopNumberMapper->setMapping( desktopAction, i ); + * } + * </PRE> + * + * @sect General Usage: + * + * The steps to using actions are roughly as follows + * + * @li Decide which attributes you want to associate with a given + * action (icons, text, keyboard shortcut, etc) + * @li Create the action using KAction (or derived or super class). + * @li "Plug" the Action into whatever GUI element you want. Typically, + * this will be a menu or toolbar. + * + * @sect Detailed Example: + * + * Here is an example of enabling a "New [document]" action + * <PRE> + * KAction *newAct = new KAction(i18n("&New"), "filenew", + * KStdAccel::shortcut(KStdAccel::New), + * this, SLOT(fileNew()), + * actionCollection(), "new"); + * </PRE> + * This line creates our action. It says that wherever this action is + * displayed, it will use "&New" as the text, the standard icon, and + * the standard shortcut. It further says that whenever this action + * is invoked, it will use the fileNew() slot to execute it. + * + * <PRE> + * QPopupMenu *file = new QPopupMenu; + * newAct->plug(file); + * </PRE> + * That just inserted the action into the File menu. The point is, it's not + * important in which menu it is: all manipulation of the item is + * done through the newAct object. + * + * <PRE> + * newAct->plug(toolBar()); + * </PRE> + * And this inserted the Action into the main toolbar as a button. + * + * That's it! + * + * If you want to disable that action sometime later, you can do so + * with + * <PRE> + * newAct->setEnabled(false) + * </PRE> + * and both the menuitem in File and the toolbar button will instantly + * be disabled. + * + * Do not delete a KAction object without unplugging it from all its + * containers. The simplest way to do that is to use the unplugAll() + * as in the following example: + * <PRE> + * newAct->unplugAll(); + * delete newAct; + * </PRE> + * Normally you will not need to do this as KActionCollection manages + * everything for you. + * + * Note: if you are using a "standard" action like "new", "paste", + * "quit", or any other action described in the KDE UI Standards, + * please use the methods in the @ref KStdAction class rather than + * defining your own. + * + * @sect Usage Within the XML Framework: + * + * If you are using KAction within the context of the XML menu and + * toolbar building framework, then there are a few tiny changes. The + * first is that you must insert your new action into an action + * collection. The action collection (a @ref KActionCollection) is, + * logically enough, a central collection of all of the actions + * defined in your application. The XML UI framework code in KXMLGUI + * classes needs access to this collection in order to build up the + * GUI (it's how the builder code knows which actions are valid and + * which aren't). + * + * Also, if you use the XML builder framework, then you do not ever + * have to plug your actions into containers manually. The framework + * does that for you. + * + * @see KStdAction + * @short Class to encapsulate user-driven action or event + */ +class KAction : public QObject +{ + friend class KActionCollection; + Q_OBJECT + Q_PROPERTY( int containerCount READ containerCount ) + Q_PROPERTY( QString plainText READ plainText ) + Q_PROPERTY( QString text READ text WRITE setText ) + Q_PROPERTY( QString shortcut READ shortcutText WRITE setShortcutText ) + Q_PROPERTY( bool enabled READ isEnabled WRITE setEnabled ) + Q_PROPERTY( QString group READ group WRITE setGroup ) + Q_PROPERTY( QString whatsThis READ whatsThis WRITE setWhatsThis ) + Q_PROPERTY( QString toolTip READ toolTip WRITE setToolTip ) + Q_PROPERTY( QString icon READ icon WRITE setIcon ) +public: + /** + * Constructs an action with text, potential keyboard + * shortcut, and a SLOT to call when this action is invoked by + * the user. + * + * If you do not want or have a keyboard shortcut, + * set the @p cut param to 0. + * + * This is the most common KAction used when you do not have a + * corresponding icon (note that it won't appear in the current version + * of the "Edit ToolBar" dialog, because an action needs an icon to be + * plugged in a toolbar...). + * + * @param text The text that will be displayed. + * @param cut The corresponding keyboard shortcut. + * @param receiver The SLOT's parent. + * @param slot The SLOT to invoke to execute this action. + * @param parent This action's parent. + * @param name An internal name for this action. + */ + KAction( const QString& text, const KShortcut& cut, + const QObject* receiver, const char* slot, + KActionCollection* parent, const char* name ); + /** + * Constructs an action with text, icon, potential keyboard + * shortcut, and a SLOT to call when this action is invoked by + * the user. + * + * If you do not want or have a keyboard shortcut, set the + * @p cut param to 0. + * + * This is the other common KAction used.
