Detailed Description

Abstract base class for map rendering implementations.

The API is designed in a way that rendering is done asynchronously, therefore the caller is not blocked while the rendering is in progress. Non-blocking operation is quite important because the rendering can take considerable amount of time.

Common use case: 0. prepare QgsMapSettings with rendering configuration (extent, layer, map size, ...)

  1. create QgsMapRendererJob subclass with QgsMapSettings instance
  2. connect to job's finished() signal
  3. call start(). Map rendering will start in background, the function immediately returns
  4. at some point, slot connected to finished() signal is called, map rendering is done

It is possible to cancel the rendering job while it is active by calling cancel() function.

The following subclasses are available:

Convenience function to project an extent into the layer source CRS, but also split it into two extents if it crosses the +/- 180 degree line.

Modifies the given extent to be in the source CRS coordinates, and if it was split, returns true, and also sets the contents of the r2 parameter
