Detailed Description

template<typename T>
class PreferenceInterface< T >

Template class for implementing preference dialogs and preference widgets.

Public Member Functions
	PreferenceInterface (QWidget *parent=nullptr)
	Standard constructor. More...
virtual bool	is_ui_initialized () const final
	checks if ui has already been initialized. More...
virtual QAction *	get_action () final
	get action with translated text More...
virtual QString	get_action_name () const =0
	has to be implemented and should return the translated action text More...
virtual void	commit ()=0
	This method is called, when OK or apply is pressed. So all settings should be written there.
virtual void	revert ()=0
	This method is called, when cancel is clicked. So the gui should be re-initialized when this method is called. This method should also be called in the init_ui() method.

Protected Member Functions
virtual void	init_ui ()=0
	call setup_parent(this) here. initialize compoenents and connections here. After calling setup_parent(this), the preference Dialog is ready to use, language_changed() is called automatically
template<typename W >
void	setup_parent (W *widget)
	Sets up the Preference dialog. After this method, the dialog is "ready to use" This method should be the first to be called when calling init_ui() More...
void	language_changed () override
	automatically called when language has changed. When overriding this method. Overriding this method should look like this: void GUI_FontConfig::language_changed() { translate_action(); More...
void	translate_action ()
	Sets the new translated action name.
void	showEvent (QShowEvent *e) override
	shows the widget and automatically calls init_ui() More...

	closes the widget More...

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

PreferenceInterface()

template<typename T>

PreferenceInterface< T >::PreferenceInterface ( QWidget *  parent = nullptr )

inline

Standard constructor.

Parameters

parent

Member Function Documentation

closeEvent()

template<typename T>

void PreferenceInterface< T >::closeEvent ( QCloseEvent *  e )

inlineoverrideprotected

closes the widget

Parameters

e

get_action()

template<typename T>

virtual QAction* PreferenceInterface< T >::get_action ( )

inlinefinalvirtual

get action with translated text

Returns

get_action_name()

template<typename T>

virtual QString PreferenceInterface< T >::get_action_name ( ) const

pure virtual

has to be implemented and should return the translated action text

Returns

translated action name

Implemented in GUI_Shortcuts, GUI_Notifications, GUI_StreamRecorder, GUI_LastFM, GUI_PreferenceDialog, GUI_PlayerPreferences, GUI_RemoteControl, GUI_LanguageChooser, GUI_StartupDialog, GUI_FontConfig, and GUI_BroadcastSetup.

is_ui_initialized()

template<typename T>

virtual bool PreferenceInterface< T >::is_ui_initialized ( ) const

inlinefinalvirtual

checks if ui has already been initialized.

Returns

false, if the widget has never been activated before, true else

language_changed()

template<typename T>

void PreferenceInterface< T >::language_changed ( )

inlineoverrideprotected

automatically called when language has changed. When overriding this method. Overriding this method should look like this: void GUI_FontConfig::language_changed()
{
translate_action();

if(!is_ui_initialized()){
return;
}

retranslateUi(this);
PreferenceWidgetInterface::language_changed();
}

setup_parent()

template<typename T>

template<typename W >

void PreferenceInterface< T >::setup_parent ( W *  widget )

inlineprotected

Sets up the Preference dialog. After this method, the dialog is "ready to use"
This method should be the first to be called when calling init_ui()

Parameters

widget

should always be "this"

showEvent()

template<typename T>

void PreferenceInterface< T >::showEvent ( QShowEvent *  e )

inlineoverrideprotected

shows the widget and automatically calls init_ui()

Parameters

e
