Detailed Description

A QgsTask which retrieves sublayer details for a URI.

This task executes a call to QgsProviderRegistry::querySublayers() in a background thread. Depending on the URI queried it can be expensive to calculate the sublayers (e.g. in the case where a full table scan is required to resolve mixed geometry type layers), so it is beneficial to perform these queries in the background wherever possible.

While QgsProviderRegistry::querySublayers() offers various flags to control how in-depth the querying will be, these flags are not exposed through QgsProviderSublayerTask. Rather QgsProviderSublayerTask will always execute the most thorough query possible, regardless of how expensive this may be.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ QgsProviderSublayerTask()

QgsProviderSublayerTask::QgsProviderSublayerTask ( const QString &  uri,
bool  includeSystemTables = false 
)

Constructor for QgsProviderSublayerTask, which retrieves sublayer details for the specified uri.

Member Function Documentation

◆ cancel()

void QgsProviderSublayerTask::cancel ( )
overridevirtual

Notifies the task that it should terminate.

Calling this is not guaranteed to immediately end the task, rather it sets the isCanceled() flag which task subclasses can check and terminate their operations at an appropriate time. Any subtasks owned by this task will also be canceled. Derived classes must ensure that the base class implementation is called from any overridden version.

isCanceled()

Reimplemented from QgsTask.

Definition at line 55 of file qgsprovidersublayertask.cpp.

◆ results()

QList< QgsProviderSublayerDetails > QgsProviderSublayerTask::results ( ) const

Returns the sublayer details as calculated by the task.

Definition at line 31 of file qgsprovidersublayertask.cpp.

◆ run()

bool QgsProviderSublayerTask::run ( )
overrideprotectedvirtual

Performs the task's operation.

This method will be called when the task commences (ie via calling start() ), and subclasses should implement the operation they wish to perform in the background within this method.

A task must return a boolean value to indicate whether the task was completed successfully or terminated before completion.

Implements QgsTask.
