Detailed Description

Abstract interface for use by classes that filter the features or attributes of a layer.

A QgsFeatureFilterProvider provides a method for modifying a QgsFeatureRequest in place to apply additional filters to the request, since QGIS 3.18 a method to filter allowed attributes is also available.

Since

QGIS 2.14

Definition at line 43 of file qgsfeaturefilterprovider.h.

Member Function Documentation

clone()

virtual QgsFeatureFilterProvider* QgsFeatureFilterProvider::clone ( ) const

pure virtual

Create a clone of the feature filter provider.

Returns

a new clone

Implemented in QgsFeatureFilterProviderGroup, QgsFeatureFilter, and QgsAccessControl.

filterFeatures()

virtual void QgsFeatureFilterProvider::filterFeatures ( const QgsVectorLayer *  layer, QgsFeatureRequest &  featureRequest  ) const

pure virtual

Add additional filters to the feature request to further restrict the features returned by the request.

Derived classes must implement this method.

Parameters

layer	the layer to filter
featureRequest	the feature request to update

Implemented in QgsFeatureFilterProviderGroup, QgsFeatureFilter, and QgsAccessControl.

layerAttributes()

virtual QStringList QgsFeatureFilterProvider::layerAttributes ( const QgsVectorLayer *  layer, const QStringList &  attributes  ) const

pure virtual

Returns the list of visible attribute names from a list of attributes names for the given layer.

Since

QGIS 3.18

Implemented in QgsFeatureFilterProviderGroup, QgsFeatureFilter, and QgsAccessControl.
