24/**
25 * Convenience methods to access all standard KDE actions.
26 *
27 * These actions should be used instead of hardcoding menubar and
28 * toolbar items. Using these actions helps your application easily
29 * conform to the <a href="https://develop.kde.org/hig/">KDE Human Interface Guidelines</a>.
30 *
31 * All of the documentation for QAction holds for KStandardActions
32 * also. When in doubt on how things work, check the QAction
33 * documentation first.
34 * Please note that calling any of these methods automatically adds the action
35 * to the actionCollection() of the QObject given by the 'parent' parameter.
36 *
37 * <b>Simple Example:</b>\n
38 *
39 * In general, using standard actions should be a drop in replacement
40 * for regular actions. For example, if you previously had:
41 * @code
42 * QAction *newAct = new QAction(QIcon::fromTheme("document-new"),
43 * i18n("&New"),
44 * this);
45 * newAct->setShortcut(KStandardShortcut::shortcut(KStandardShortcut::New).constFirst());
46 * connect(newAct, &QAction::triggered, this, &ClassFoo::fileNew);
47 * @endcode
48 *
49 * You can replace it with:
50 * @code
51 * QAction *newAct = KStandardActions::openNew(this, &ClassFoo::fileNew, this);
52 * @endcode
53 *
54 * Alternatively you can instantiate the action using the StandardAction enums
55 * provided. This author can't think of a reason why you would want to, but, hey,
56 * if you do, here's how:
57 *
58 * \code
59 * QAction *newAct = KStandardActions::create(KStandardActions::New, this, &ClassFoo::fileNew, this);
60 * \endcode
61 *
62 * <b>Relationship with KActionCollection from KXMLGui</b>\n
63 *
64 * If a KActionCollection is passed as the parent then the action will be
65 * automatically added to that collection:
66 * \code
67 * QAction *cut = KStandardActions::cut(this, &ClassFoo::editCut, actionCollection());
68 * \endcode
69 *
70 * Each action has a unique internal name which can be queried using the
71 * name method. For example KStandardActions::name(KStandardActions::Cut)
72 * would return 'edit_cut'. This name can be used as a unique identifier
73 * for the actions. So if you wanted to add an existing standard action
74 * to an action collection you can do so like this:
75 * \code
76 * QAction *cut = KStandardActions::cut(this, &ClassFoo::editCut, this);
77 * actionCollection()->addAction(KStandardActions::name(KStandardActions::Cut), cut);
78 * \endcode
79 *
80 * You can then get a pointer to the action using
81 * \code
82 * QAction *cutPtr = actionCollection()->action(KStandardActions::name(KStandardActions::Cut));
83 * \endcode
84 *
