Signals

void completed (const QString &newFilename, const QString &newLayer)
 Emitted when writing the layer is successfully completed.
 
void errorOccurred (int error, const QString &errorMessage)
 Emitted when an error occurs which prevented the file being written (or if the task is canceled).
 
void writeComplete (const QString &newFilename)
 Emitted when writing the layer is successfully completed.

Detailed Description

QgsTask task which performs a QgsVectorFileWriter layer saving operation as a background task.

This can be used to save a vector layer out to a file without blocking the QGIS interface.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ QgsVectorFileWriterTask()

QgsVectorFileWriterTask::QgsVectorFileWriterTask ( QgsVectorLayer layer,
const QString &  fileName,
const QgsVectorFileWriter::SaveVectorOptions options 
)

Constructor for QgsVectorFileWriterTask.

Takes a source layer, destination fileName and save options.

Definition at line 21 of file qgsvectorfilewritertask.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

◆ cancel()

void QgsVectorFileWriterTask::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.

See also
isCanceled()

Reimplemented from QgsTask.

Definition at line 47 of file qgsvectorfilewritertask.cpp.

◆ completed

void QgsVectorFileWriterTask::completed ( const QString &  newFilename,
const QString &  newLayer 
)
signal

Emitted when writing the layer is successfully completed.

The newFilename parameter indicates the file path for the written file. When applicable, the newLayer parameter indicates the layer name used.

◆ errorOccurred

void QgsVectorFileWriterTask::errorOccurred ( int  error,
const QString &  errorMessage 
)
signal

Emitted when an error occurs which prevented the file being written (or if the task is canceled).

The writing error and errorMessage will be reported.

◆ finished()

void QgsVectorFileWriterTask::finished ( bool  result)
overrideprotectedvirtual

If the task is managed by a QgsTaskManager, this will be called after the task has finished (whether through successful completion or via early termination).

The result argument reflects whether the task was successfully completed or not. This method is always called from the main thread, so it is safe to create widgets and perform other operations which require the main thread. However, the GUI will be blocked for the duration of this method so tasks should avoid performing any lengthy operations here.

Reimplemented from QgsTask.

Definition at line 66 of file qgsvectorfilewritertask.cpp.

◆ run()

bool QgsVectorFileWriterTask::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.

Definition at line 53 of file qgsvectorfilewritertask.cpp.

◆ writeComplete

void QgsVectorFileWriterTask::writeComplete ( const QString &  newFilename)
signal

Emitted when writing the layer is successfully completed.

The newFilename parameter indicates the file path for the written file.

Note
this signal is deprecated in favor of completed().
