KUrlRequester Class Reference
#include <kurlrequester.h>

Detailed Description
This class is a widget showing a lineedit and a button, which invokes a filedialog.File name completion is available in the lineedit.
The defaults for the filedialog are to ask for one existing local file, i.e. KFileDialog::setMode( KFile::File | KFile::ExistingOnly | KFile::LocalOnly ) The default filter is "*", i.e. show all files, and the start directory is the current working directory, or the last directory where a file has been selected.
You can change this behavior by using setMode() or setFilter().

Constructor & Destructor Documentation
KUrlRequester::KUrlRequester | ( | QWidget * | parent = 0 |
) | [explicit] |
Constructs a KUrlRequester widget with the initial URL url
.
Definition at line 203 of file kurlrequester.cpp.
Special constructor, which creates a KUrlRequester widget with a custom edit-widget.
The edit-widget can be either a KComboBox or a KLineEdit (or inherited thereof). Note: for geometry management reasons, the edit-widget is reparented to have the KUrlRequester as parent.

Member Function Documentation
KPushButton * KUrlRequester::button | ( | ) | const |
- Returns:
- a pointer to the pushbutton.
It is provided so that you can specify an own pixmap or a text, if you really need to.
Definition at line 396 of file kurlrequester.cpp.
void KUrlRequester::changeEvent | ( | QEvent * | e | ) | [protected, virtual] |
Definition at line 265 of file kurlrequester.cpp.
void KUrlRequester::clear | ( | ) | [slot] |
KComboBox * KUrlRequester::comboBox | ( | ) | const |
- Returns:
- a pointer to the combobox, in case you have set one using the special constructor.
Returns 0L otherwise.
Definition at line 374 of file kurlrequester.cpp.
KUrlCompletion * KUrlRequester::completionObject | ( | ) | const |
- Returns:
- the KUrlCompletion object used in the lineedit/combobox.
Definition at line 401 of file kurlrequester.cpp.
const KEditListBox::CustomEditor & KUrlRequester::customEditor | ( | ) |
- Returns:
- an object, suitable for use with KEditListBox.
It allows you to put this KUrlRequester into a KEditListBox. Basically, do it like this:
KUrlRequester *req = new KUrlRequester( someWidget ); [...] KEditListBox *editListBox = new KEditListBox( i18n("Some Title"), req->customEditor(), someWidget );

Definition at line 385 of file kurlrequester.cpp.
KFileDialog * KUrlRequester::fileDialog | ( | ) | const [virtual] |
- Returns:
- a pointer to the filedialog You can use this to customize the dialog, e.g.
to specify a filter. Never returns 0L.
Remove in KDE4? KUrlRequester should use KDirSelectDialog for (mode & KFile::Directory) && !(mode & KFile::File)
Definition at line 351 of file kurlrequester.cpp.
QString KUrlRequester::filter | ( | ) | const |
Returns the current filter for the file dialog.
- See also:
- KFileDialog::filter()
KLineEdit * KUrlRequester::lineEdit | ( | ) | const |
- Returns:
- a pointer to the lineedit, either the default one, or the special one, if you used the special constructor.
It is provided so that you can e.g. set an own completion object (e.g. KShellCompletion) into it.
Definition at line 369 of file kurlrequester.cpp.
KFile::Modes KUrlRequester::mode | ( | ) | const |
void KUrlRequester::openFileDialog | ( | KUrlRequester * | ) | [signal] |
Emitted before the filedialog is going to open.
Connect to this signal to "configure" the filedialog, e.g. set the filefilter, the mode, a preview-widget, etc. It's usually not necessary to set a URL for the filedialog, as it will get set properly from the editfield contents.
If you use multiple KUrlRequesters, you can connect all of them to the same slot and use the given KUrlRequester pointer to know which one is going to open.
void KUrlRequester::returnPressed | ( | const QString & | ) | [signal] |
Emitted when return or enter was pressed in the lineedit.
The parameter contains the contents of the lineedit.
void KUrlRequester::returnPressed | ( | ) | [signal] |
Emitted when return or enter was pressed in the lineedit.
void KUrlRequester::setFilter | ( | const QString & | filter | ) |
Sets the filter for the file dialog.
- See also:
- KFileDialog::setFilter()
Definition at line 338 of file kurlrequester.cpp.
void KUrlRequester::setMode | ( | KFile::Modes | m | ) |
Sets the mode of the file dialog.
Note: you can only select one file with the filedialog, so KFile::Files doesn't make much sense.
- See also:
- KFileDialog::setMode()
Definition at line 321 of file kurlrequester.cpp.
void KUrlRequester::setPath | ( | const QString & | path | ) | [slot] |
Sets the url in the lineedit to KUrl::fromPath(path)
.
This is only for local paths; do not pass a url here. This method is mostly for "local paths only" url requesters, for instance those set up with setMode(KFile::File|KFileExistingOnly|KFileLocalOnly)
Definition at line 260 of file kurlrequester.cpp.
void KUrlRequester::setUrl | ( | const KUrl & | url | ) | [slot] |
void KUrlRequester::textChanged | ( | const QString & | ) | [signal] |
Emitted when the text in the lineedit changes.
The parameter contains the contents of the lineedit.
KUrl KUrlRequester::url | ( | ) | const |
- Returns:
- the current url in the lineedit.
May be malformed, if the user entered something weird. ~user or environment variables are substituted for local files.
void KUrlRequester::urlSelected | ( | const KUrl & | ) | [signal] |
Emitted when the user changed the URL via the file dialog.
The parameter contains the contents of the lineedit.
