\brief The QAbstractExtensionFactory class provides an interface

for extension factories in Qt Designer.

QAbstractExtensionFactory is not intended to be instantiated

|
||
|
|
||
|
In \QD, extension factories are used to look up and create named
|
||
|
extensions as they are required. For that reason, when
|
||
|
implementing a custom extension, you must also create a
|
||
|
QExtensionFactory, i.e a class that is able to make an instance of
|
||
|
your extension, and register it using \QD's \l
|
||
|
{QExtensionManager}{extension manager}.
|
||
|
|
||
|
When an extension is required, \QD's \l
|
||
|
{QExtensionManager}{extension manager} will run through all its
|
||
|
registered factories calling QExtensionFactory::createExtension()
|
||
|
for each until the first one that is able to create the requested
|
||
|
extension for the selected object, is found. This factory will
|
||
|
then make an instance of the extension.

Returns the extension of the given \a object cast to type T if the

object is of type T (or of a subclass); otherwise returns 0. The

When implementing a custom widget plugin, a pointer to \QD's
|
||
|
current QDesignerFormEditorInterface object (\c formEditor) is
|
||
|
provided by the QDesignerCustomWidgetInterface::initialize()
|
||
|
function's parameter.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If the widget in the example above doesn't have a defined
|
||
|
QDesignerPropertySheetExtension, \c propertySheet will be a null
|
||
|
pointer.

\macro Q_DECLARE_EXTENSION_INTERFACE(ExtensionName, Identifier)
|
||
|
|

|
\relates QExtensionManager
|
||
|
|
||
|
Associates the given \a Identifier (a string literal) to the
|
||
|
extension class called \a ExtensionName. The \a Identifier must be
|
||
|
unique. For example:
|
||
|
|
||
|
\snippet doc/src/snippets/code/tools_designer_src_lib_extension_extension.cpp 1
|
||
|
|
||
|
Using the company and product names is a good way to ensure
|
||
|
uniqueness of the identifier.
|
||
|
|
||
|
When implementing a custom extension class, you must use
|
||
|
Q_DECLARE_EXTENSION_INTERFACE() to enable usage of the
|
||
|
qt_extension() function. The macro is normally located right after the
|
||
|
class definition for \a ExtensionName, in the associated header
|
||
|
file.
