Detailed Description

The QTextCodecPlugin class provides an abstract base for custom QTextCodec plugins.

The text codec plugin is a simple plugin interface that makes it easy to create custom text codecs that can be loaded dynamically into applications.

Writing a text codec plugin is achieved by subclassing this base class, reimplementing the pure virtual functions names(), aliases(), createForName(), mibEnums() and createForMib(), and exporting the class with the Q_EXPORT_PLUGIN() macro. See How to Create Qt Plugins for details.

See the IANA character-sets encoding file for more information on mime names and mib enums.


Member Function Documentation

QTextCodecPlugin::QTextCodecPlugin ( QObject * parent = 0 )

Constructs a text codec plugin with the given parent. This is invoked automatically by the Q_EXPORT_PLUGIN() macro.

QTextCodecPlugin::~QTextCodecPlugin ()

Destroys the text codec plugin.

You never have to call this explicitly. Qt destroys a plugin automatically when it is no longer used.

QList<QByteArray> QTextCodecPlugin::aliases () const   [pure virtual]

Returns the list of aliases supported by this plugin.

QTextCodec * QTextCodecPlugin::createForMib ( int mib )   [pure virtual]

Creates a QTextCodec object for the mib enum mib.

See the IANA character-sets encoding file for more information.

See also mibEnums().

QTextCodec * QTextCodecPlugin::createForName ( const QByteArray & name )   [pure virtual]

Creates a QTextCodec object for the codec called name.

See also names().

QList<int> QTextCodecPlugin::mibEnums () const   [pure virtual]

Returns the list of mib enums supported by this plugin.

See also createForMib().

QList<QByteArray> QTextCodecPlugin::names () const   [pure virtual]

Returns the list of MIME names and aliases supported by this plugin.

See also createForName().
