Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ QgsAbstractPropertyCollection()

QgsAbstractPropertyCollection::QgsAbstractPropertyCollection ( const QString &  name = QString())

Constructor for QgsAbstractPropertyCollection.

The name parameter should be set to a descriptive name for the collection.

Member Function Documentation

◆ clear()

virtual void QgsAbstractPropertyCollection::clear ( )
pure virtual

Removes all properties from the collection.

Implemented in QgsPropertyCollectionStack, and QgsPropertyCollection.

◆ hasActiveProperties()

virtual bool QgsAbstractPropertyCollection::hasActiveProperties ( ) const
pure virtual

Returns true if the collection has any active properties, or false if all properties within the collection are deactivated.

See also
hasDynamicProperties()

Implemented in QgsPropertyCollectionStack, and QgsPropertyCollection.

◆ hasDynamicProperties()

virtual bool QgsAbstractPropertyCollection::hasDynamicProperties ( ) const
pure virtual

Returns true if the collection has any active, non-static properties, or false if either all non-static properties within the collection are deactivated or if the collection only contains static properties.

See also
hasActiveProperties()

Implemented in QgsPropertyCollectionStack, and QgsPropertyCollection.

◆ hasProperty()

virtual bool QgsAbstractPropertyCollection::hasProperty ( int  key) const
pure virtual

Returns true if the collection contains a property with the specified key.

Parameters
keyinteger key for property. The intended use case is that a context specific enum is cast to int and used for the key value.
See also
property()

Implemented in QgsPropertyCollectionStack, and QgsPropertyCollection.

◆ isActive()

virtual bool QgsAbstractPropertyCollection::isActive ( int  key) const
pure virtual

Returns true if the collection contains an active property with the specified key.

Parameters
keyinteger key for property to test. The intended use case is that a context specific enum is cast to int and used for the key value.

Implemented in QgsPropertyCollectionStack, and QgsPropertyCollection.

◆ loadVariant()

virtual bool QgsAbstractPropertyCollection::loadVariant ( const QVariant &  configuration,
const QgsPropertiesDefinition definitions 
)
pure virtual

Loads this property collection from a QVariantMap, wrapped in a QVariant.

You can use QgsXmlUtils::readVariant to save it to an XML document.

See also
toVariant()

Implemented in QgsPropertyCollection, and QgsPropertyCollectionStack.

◆ name()

QString QgsAbstractPropertyCollection::name ( ) const
inline

Returns the descriptive name of the property collection.

See also
setName()

Definition at line 69 of file qgspropertycollection.h.

◆ prepare()

virtual bool QgsAbstractPropertyCollection::prepare ( const QgsExpressionContext context = QgsExpressionContext()) const
pure virtual

Prepares the collection against a specified expression context.

Calling prepare before evaluating the collection's properties multiple times allows precalculation of expensive setup tasks such as parsing expressions. Returns true if preparation was successful.

Implemented in QgsPropertyCollectionStack, and QgsPropertyCollection.

◆ property()

virtual QgsProperty QgsAbstractPropertyCollection::property ( int  key) const
pure virtual

Returns a matching property from the collection, if one exists.

Parameters
keyinteger key for property to return. The intended use case is that a context specific enum is cast to int and used for the key value.
Returns
matching property, or null if no matching, active property found.
See also
hasProperty()

Implemented in QgsPropertyCollectionStack, and QgsPropertyCollection.

◆ propertyKeys()

virtual QSet<int> QgsAbstractPropertyCollection::propertyKeys ( ) const
pure virtual

Returns a list of property keys contained within the collection.

Implemented in QgsPropertyCollectionStack, and QgsPropertyCollection.

◆ readXml()

bool QgsAbstractPropertyCollection::readXml ( const QDomElement &  collectionElem,
const QgsPropertiesDefinition definitions 
)
virtual

Reads property collection state from an XML element.

Parameters
collectionElemsource DOM element for property collection's state
definitionsproperty definitions
See also
writeXml()

Definition at line 108 of file qgspropertycollection.cpp.

◆ referencedFields()

virtual QSet< QString > QgsAbstractPropertyCollection::referencedFields ( const QgsExpressionContext context = QgsExpressionContext(),
bool  ignoreContext = false 
) const
pure virtual

Returns the set of any fields referenced by the active properties from the collection.

Parameters
contextexpression context the properties will be evaluated against.
ignoreContextThis parameter has been added in QGIS 3.14. When set to true, even fields not set in context's fields() will be reported - this is useful e.g. with vector tiles where the actual available field names may not be known beforehand.

Implemented in QgsPropertyCollectionStack, and QgsPropertyCollection.

◆ setName()

void QgsAbstractPropertyCollection::setName ( const QString &  name)
inline

Sets the descriptive name for the property collection.

See also
name()

Definition at line 75 of file qgspropertycollection.h.

◆ toVariant()

virtual QVariant QgsAbstractPropertyCollection::toVariant ( const QgsPropertiesDefinition definitions) const
pure virtual

Saves this property collection to a QVariantMap, wrapped in a QVariant.

You can use QgsXmlUtils::writeVariant to save it to an XML document.

See also
loadVariant()

Implemented in QgsPropertyCollectionStack, and QgsPropertyCollection.

◆ value()

virtual QVariant QgsAbstractPropertyCollection::value ( int  key,
const QgsExpressionContext context,
const QVariant &  defaultValue = QVariant() 
) const
pure virtual

Returns the calculated value of the property with the specified key from within the collection.

If you need the validity of the value (like ok provided from the valueAs* variants) refer to the property() and QgsProperty::value()

Parameters
keyinteger key for property to return. The intended use case is that a context specific enum is cast to int and used for the key value.

Returns
calculated property value, or default value if property could not be evaluated
