Detailed Description

A proxy class publishing a DCOP interface for actions.

The KDCOPActionProxy class provides an easy way to publish a collection of KAction objects through DCOP. For the DCOP client the exported actions behave like full-fledged DCOP objects, providing full access to the KAction object functionality in the server.

This class can generate DCOP object ids for given action objects, which it automatically processes, as being a DCOPObjectProxy .

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

KDCOPActionProxy::KDCOPActionProxy KActionCollection   actionCollection,
DCOPObject   parent
 

Constructs a dcop action proxy, being able to export the actions of the provided KActionCollection through DCOP, using the parent DCOPObject's object id to generate unique object ids for the actions.

KDCOPActionProxy::KDCOPActionProxy DCOPObject   parent
 

Use this constructor if do not want to provide the exportable actions through a KActionCollection . You have to reimplement the virtual actions() and action() methods if you use this constructor.

KDCOPActionProxy::~KDCOPActionProxy  
 

Destructor.


Member Function Documentation

virtual KAction* KDCOPActionProxy::action const char *    name const [virtual]
 

Returns an action object with the given name. The default implementation queries the action object from the KActionCollection, if the first constructor has been used.

virtual QMap<QCString,DCOPRef> KDCOPActionProxy::actionMap const QCString &    appId = QCString() const [virtual]
 

Returns a map of all exported actions, with the action name as keys and a global DCOP reference as data entries. The appId argument is used to specify the appid component of the DCOP reference. By default the global application id is used ( kapp->dcopClient()->appId() ) .

virtual QCString KDCOPActionProxy::actionObjectId const QCString &    name const [virtual]
 

Use this method to retrieve a DCOP object id for an action with the given name. This class automatically takes care of processing DCOP object requests for the returned object id.

You can construct a global DCOP object referenence using DCOPRef. For example like DCOPRef( kapp->dcopClient()->appId, actionProxy->actionObjectId( actionName ) );

The action with the given name has to be available through the action method.

virtual QValueList<KAction *> KDCOPActionProxy::actions   [virtual]
 

Returns a list of exportable actions. The default implementation returns a list of actions provided by a KActionCollection, if the first constructor has been used.

virtual bool KDCOPActionProxy::process const QCString &    obj,
const QCString &    fun,
const QByteArray &    data,
QCString &    replyType,
QByteArray &    replyData
[virtual]
 

Internal reimplementation of DCOPObjectProxy::process .

Reimplemented from DCOPObjectProxy.

virtual bool KDCOPActionProxy::processAction const QCString &    obj,
const QCString &    fun,
const QByteArray &    data,
QCString &    replyType,
QByteArray &    replyData,
KAction   action
[virtual]
 

Called by the process method and takes care of processing the object request for an action object.
