Detailed Description

Reads and writes project states.

Note

Has two general kinds of state to make persistent. (I.e., to read and write.) First, QGIS proprietary information. Second plug-in information.

A singleton since there shall only be one active project at a time; and provides canonical location for plug-ins and main app to find/set properties.

bool QgsProject::read ( const QFileInfo file)

Reads a project file.

Parameters
filename of project file to read
Note
Any current plug-in state is erased

  • Gets the extents
  • Creates maplayers
  • Registers maplayers

it's presumed that the caller has already reset the map canvas, map registry, and legend

Definition at line 739 of file qgsproject.cpp.

Note
Any current plug-in state is erased

◆ read() [3/3]

bool QgsProject::read ( QDomNode layerNode)

Reads the layer described in the associated DOM node.

Parameters
layerNoderepresents a QgsProject DOM node that encodes a specific layer.

QgsProject raises an exception when one of the QgsProject::read() implementations fails. Since the read()s are invoked from qgisapp, then qgisapp handles the exception. It prompts the user for the new location of the data, if any. If there is a new location, the DOM node associated with the layer has its datasource tag corrected. Then that node is passed to this member function to be re-opened.
