Detailed Description

Every attribute editor widget needs a factory, which inherits this class.

It provides metadata for the widgets such as the name (human readable), it serializes the configuration to an xml structure and loads the configuration from there.

It also has factory methods to create a widget wrapper for the attribute editor itself and another factory method to create a configuration dialog.

virtual QgsEditorConfigWidget* QgsEditorWidgetFactory::configWidget ( QgsVectorLayer vl,
int  fieldIdx,
QWidget *  parent 
) const
pure virtual

Override this in your implementation.

Create a new configuration widget for this widget type.

Parameters
vlThe layer for which the widget will be created
fieldIdxThe field index for which the widget will be created
parentThe parent widget of the created config widget
Returns
A configuration widget

Implemented in QgsRelationReferenceFactory, QgsDateTimeEditFactory, QgsValueRelationWidgetFactory, QgsPhotoWidgetFactory, QgsCheckboxWidgetFactory, QgsClassificationWidgetWrapperFactory, QgsColorWidgetFactory, QgsEnumerationWidgetFactory, QgsFileNameWidgetFactory, QgsHiddenWidgetFactory, QgsRangeWidgetFactory, QgsTextEditWidgetFactory, QgsUniqueValueWidgetFactory, QgsUuidWidgetFactory, QgsValueMapWidgetFactory, and QgsWebViewWidgetFactory.

virtual QgsEditorWidgetWrapper* QgsEditorWidgetFactory::create ( QgsVectorLayer vl,
int  fieldIdx,
QWidget *  editor,
QWidget *  parent 
) const
pure virtual

Override this in your implementation.

Create a new editor widget wrapper. Call QgsEditorWidgetRegistry::create() instead of calling this method directly.

Parameters
vlThe vector layer on which this widget will act
fieldIdxThe field index on which this widget will act
editorAn editor widget if already existent. If NULL is provided, a new widget will be created.
parentThe parent for the wrapper class and any created widget.
Returns
A new widget wrapper

QVariant QgsEditorWidgetFactory::createCache ( QgsVectorLayer vl,
int  fieldIdx,
const QgsEditorWidgetConfig config 
)
virtual

Create a cache for a given field.

Parameters
vlThe vector layer.
fieldIdxThe index of the field.
configThe editor widget config.
Returns
The default implementation returns an invalid QVariant

Reimplemented in QgsValueRelationWidgetFactory.

Parameters
configElementThe configuration element from the project file
layerThe layer for which this configuration applies
fieldIdxThe field on the layer for which this configuration applies
Returns
A configuration object. This will be passed to your widget wrapper later on

Parameters
configElementThe configuration element from the project file
layerThe layer for which this configuration applies
fieldIdxThe field on the layer for which this configuration applies
Returns
A configuration object. This will be passed to your widget wrapper later on

QString QgsEditorWidgetFactory::representValue ( QgsVectorLayer vl,
int  fieldIdx,
const QgsEditorWidgetConfig config,
const QVariant &  cache,
const QVariant &  value 
) const
virtual

Create a pretty String representation of the value.

Parameters
vlThe vector layer.
fieldIdxThe index of the field.
configThe editor widget config.
cacheThe editor widget cache.
valueThe value to represent.
Returns
By default the string representation of the provided value as implied by the field definition is returned.
