AbstractEventHandler

Since: BlackBerry 10.3.0

#include <bb/cascades/AbstractEventHandler>

The base class for event handlers.

Only classes deriving from the AbstractEventHandler class can be added to VisualNode::eventHandlers for event handling.

Properties

(Only has inherited properties)

QDeclarativeListProperty< QObject > attachedObjects[read-only]

A hierarchical list of the UIObject's attached objects.

Since:

BlackBerry 10.0.0

QString objectName

This property is overridden from QObject.

See also:

QObject::objectName().

Since:

BlackBerry 10.0.0

QObject parent[read-only]

A read-only property that represents this object's parent.

The parent of an object is specified using QObject::setParent(QObject*). The purpose of the property is to expose the object's parent to QML.

This property is read-only to prevent modifications from QML, where typically the parent is declaratively set. In C++ code, the parent can be explicitly set using QObject::setParent(QObject*), or implicitly set by adding it to a visual container.

The default value of this property is 0.

Since:

BlackBerry 10.0.0

bb::cascades::UIConfig ui[read-only]

An object that gives access to unit conversion routines.

QML use:

        // Size using design units
        Container {
            preferredWidth: ui.du(12)
            preferredHeight: ui.du(5)
        }

        // Size using design units, snap to whole pixels
        Container {
            preferredWidth: ui.sdu(13.5)
            preferredHeight: ui.sdu(7.5)
        }

        // Size using absolute pixel values
        Container {
            preferredWidth: ui.px(150)
            preferredHeight: ui.px(50)
        }

C++ use:

Container *container1 = Container::create().background(Color::Red);
UIConfig *ui = container1->ui();
container1->setPreferredWidth(ui->du(12));
container1->setPreferredHeight(ui->du(5));

Container *container2 = Container::create().background(Color::Green);
container2->setPreferredWidth(ui->sdu(13.5));
container2->setPreferredHeight(ui->sdu(7.5));

Container *container3 = Container::create().background(Color::Blue);
container3->setPreferredWidth(ui->px(150));
container3->setPreferredHeight(ui->sdu(50));

Blackberry 10.3.0

Public Functions

virtual~AbstractEventHandler ()

Destructor.

Since:

BlackBerry 10.3.0

virtual bool event (
QEvent *event)

Overloaded to implement the event mechanism in Cascades.

Warning!

If this function is overridden, it must be called by the derived class for events to work properly in Cascades.

Parameters
event	The received event.

Return:

True if the received event was recognized and processed, false otherwise.

Since:

BlackBerry 10.0.0

void setObjectName (
const QString &name)

Sets the objectName property.

Parameters
name	The new name for the object.

Since:

BlackBerry 10.0.0

virtual Q_INVOKABLE QString toDebugString ()

Returns a debug string representing this object.

Return:

A debug string for the object.

Since:

BlackBerry 10.0.0

Q_INVOKABLE bb::cascades::UIConfig * ui ()

Returns the UIConfig for this ui object.

The UIConfig can be used to perform unit conversions from design units (du) and snapped design units (sdu) to pixels.

Ownership remains with Cascades.

C++ use:

Container *container1 = Container::create().background(Color::Red);
UIConfig *ui = container1->ui();
container1->setPreferredWidth(ui->du(12));
container1->setPreferredHeight(ui->du(5));

Container *container2 = Container::create().background(Color::Green);
container2->setPreferredWidth(ui->sdu(13.5));
container2->setPreferredHeight(ui->sdu(7.5));

Container *container3 = Container::create().background(Color::Blue);
container3->setPreferredWidth(ui->px(150));
container3->setPreferredHeight(ui->sdu(50));

Return:

The UIConfig for this ui object.

Since:

BlackBerry 10.3.0

Protected Functions

(Only has inherited protected functions)

BaseObject (
QObject *parent)

Constructs an instance of BaseObject's subclass.

Parameters
parent	An optional parent, defaults to 0.

Since:

BlackBerry 10.0.0

virtual void connectNotify (
const char *signal)

Overloaded to implement the event mechanism in Cascades.

If this function is overridden, it must be called by the derived class for events to work properly in Cascades.

Parameters
signal	The connected signal.

Since:

BlackBerry 10.0.0

virtual void disconnectNotify (
const char *signal)

Overloaded to implement the event mechanism in Cascades.

If this function is overridden, it must be called by the derived class for events to work properly in Cascades.

Parameters
signal	The disconnected signal.

Since:

BlackBerry 10.0.0

Signals

(Only has inherited signals)

void creationCompleted ()

Emitted when this object is instantiated as a result of loading a QML document and creating the root node (only after the root component that caused this instantiation has completed construction), or when the object is being constructed from its builder class.

This signal indicates that the construction and initialization of the object has been completed, the properties are initialized, and any QML binding values have been assigned to the object.

This signal is not emitted when the object is constructed from C++ using the constructor. If the object is constructed using its builder class, the signal is emitted when the the builder class returns the fully constructed object.

This signal can be used when there is an activity that needs to be performed, such as a property state integrity verification after the object is instantiated from a QML document or a builder, but before control is returned to the application.

Since:

BlackBerry 10.0.0

void objectNameChanged (
const QString &objectName)

This signal is emitted when the objectName property is changed.
