Detailed Description

A file selection dialog.

Warning: This class should be avoided in new code. QFileDialog should be used instead.

See also: QFileDialog

Provides a user (and developer) friendly way to select files and directories.

The widget can be used as a drop in replacement for the QFileDialog widget, but has greater functionality and a nicer GUI.

You will usually want to use one of the static methods getOpenFileName(), getSaveFileName(), getOpenUrl() or for multiple files getOpenFileNames() or getOpenUrls().

The dialog has been designed to allow applications to customize it by subclassing. It uses geometry management to ensure that subclasses can easily add children that will be incorporated into the layout.

KDE File Dialog

Deprecated:: since 5.0, use the QFileDialog API instead. Note that when the KDE QPA theme plugin is installed, the KFileWidget will then be used automatically.

Definition at line 74 of file kfiledialog.h.

Member Enumeration Documentation

enum KFileDialog::OperationMode

Defines some default behavior of the filedialog.

E.g. in mode Opening and Saving, the selected files/urls will be added to the "recent documents" list. The Saving mode also implies setKeepLocation() being set.

Other means that no default actions are performed.

See also: setOperationMode; operationMode

Definition at line 91 of file kfiledialog.h.

enum KFileDialog::Option

Defines the options to use when calling getSave* functions.

Since: 4.4

Enumerator
ConfirmOverwrite	Confirm whether to overwrite file to save.
ShowInlinePreview	Always show an inline preview.

Definition at line 97 of file kfiledialog.h.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

KFileDialog::KFileDialog	(	const QUrl &	startDir,
		const QString &	filter,
		QWidget *	parent,
		QWidget *	widget = `nullptr`
	)

Constructs a file dialog.

Parameters

startDir	Specifies the starting directory and/or initially selected file name, or a last used directory and optional file name using the `kfiledialog:///` syntax. Refer to the KFileWidget documentation for more information on this parameter.
filter	A shell glob or a mimetype filter that specifies which files to display. For better consistency across applications, it is recommended to use a mimetype filter. See setFilter() and setMimeFilter() for details on how to use this argument.
parent	The parent widget of this dialog
widget	A widget, or a widget of widgets, for displaying custom data in the dialog. This can be used, for example, to display a check box with the caption "Open as read-only". When creating this widget, you don't need to specify a parent, since the widget's parent will be set automatically by KFileDialog.

See also: KFileWidget::KFileWidget()

Definition at line 240 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

KFileDialog::~KFileDialog ( )

Destructs the file dialog.

Definition at line 296 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

KActionCollection * KFileDialog::actionCollection ( ) const

Returns: a pointer to the action collection, holding all the used KActions.

Definition at line 901 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

QUrl KFileDialog::baseUrl ( ) const

Returns: the currently shown directory.

Definition at line 689 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

QPushButton * KFileDialog::cancelButton ( ) const

Returns: a pointer to the Cancel-Button in the filedialog. You may use it e.g. to set a custom text to it.

Definition at line 877 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

void KFileDialog::clearFilter ( )

Clears any mime- or namefilter.

Does not reload the directory.

Definition at line 340 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

QString KFileDialog::currentFilter ( ) const

Returns the current filter as entered by the user or one of the predefined set via setFilter().

See also: setFilter(); filterChanged()

Definition at line 317 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

QMimeType KFileDialog::currentFilterMimeType ( )

Returns the mimetype for the desired output format.

This is only valid if setMimeFilter() has been called previously.

See also: setFilterMimeType()

Definition at line 362 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

QString KFileDialog::currentMimeFilter ( ) const

The mimetype for the desired output format.

This is only valid if setMimeFilter() has been called previously.

See also: setMimeFilter()

Definition at line 349 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

void KFileDialog::fileHighlighted ( const QUrl & )

signal

Emitted when the user highlights a file.

Since: 4.4

void KFileDialog::fileSelected ( const QUrl & )

signal

Emitted when the user selects a file.

It is only emitted in single- selection mode. The best way to get notified about selected file(s) is to connect to the accepted() signal inherited from QDialog and call selectedFile(), selectedFiles(), selectedUrl() or selectedUrls().

Since: 4.4

KFileWidget * KFileDialog::fileWidget ( )

Returns the KFileWidget that implements most of this file dialog.

If you link to libkfile you can cast this to a KFileWidget*.

Definition at line 985 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

void KFileDialog::filterChanged ( const QString & filter )

signal

Emitted when the filter changed, i.e.

In this case a KMessageBox appears for confirmation.

Parameters

enable Set this to true to enable checking.

Since: 4.2

Definition at line 600 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

void KFileDialog::setFilter ( const QString & filter )

Sets the filter to be used to filter.

The filter can be either set as a space-separated list of mimetypes, which is recommended, or as a list of shell globs separated by '\n'.

If the filter contains an unescaped '/', a mimetype filter is assumed. If you would like a '/' visible in your filter it can be escaped with a '\'. You can specify multiple mimetypes like this (separated with space):

kfile->setFilter( "image/png text/html text/plain" );

When showing the filter to the user, the mimetypes will be automatically translated into their description like `PNG image'. Multiple mimetypes will be automatically summarized to a filter item `All supported files'. To add a filter item for all files matching '*', add application/octet-stream as mimetype.

If the filter contains no unescaped '/', it is assumed that the filter contains conventional shell globs. Several filter items to select from can be separated by '\n'. Every filter entry is defined through namefilter|text to display. If no '|' is found in the expression, just the namefilter is shown. Examples:

kfile->setFilter("*.cpp|C++ Source Files\n*.h|Header files");
kfile->setFilter("*.cpp");
kfile->setFilter("*.cpp|Sources (*.cpp)");
kfile->setFilter("*.cpp|" + i18n("Sources (*.cpp)"));
kfile->setFilter("*.cpp *.cc *.C|C++ Source Files\n*.h *.H|Header files");

Note: The text to display is not parsed in any way. So, if you want to show the suffix to select by a specific filter, you must repeat it.

For better consistency across applications, it is recommended to use a mimetype filter.

See also: filterChanged; setMimeFilter

Definition at line 308 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

void KFileDialog::setInlinePreviewShown ( bool show )

Forces the inline previews to be shown or hidden, depending on show.

Parameters

show	Whether to show inline previews or not.

Since: 4.2

Definition at line 375 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

void KFileDialog::setKeepLocation ( bool keep )

Sets whether the filename/url should be kept when changing directories.

This is for example useful when having a predefined filename where the full path for that file is searched.

This is implicitly set when operationMode() is KFileDialog::Saving

getSaveFileName() and getSaveUrl() set this to true by default, so that you can type in the filename and change the directory without having to type the name again.

Definition at line 909 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

void KFileDialog::setLocationLabel ( const QString & text )

Sets the text to be displayed in front of the selection.

The default is "Location". Most useful if you want to make clear what the location is used for.

Definition at line 301 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

void KFileDialog::setMimeFilter	(	const QStringList &	types,
		const QString &	defaultType = `QString()`
	)

Sets the filter up to specify the output type.

Parameters

types	a list of mimetypes that can be used as output format
defaultType	the default mimetype to use as output format, if any. If `defaultType` is set, it will be set as the current item. Otherwise, a first item showing all the mimetypes will be created. Typically, `defaultType` should be empty for loading and set for saving.

Do not use in conjunction with setFilter()

Definition at line 325 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

void KFileDialog::setMode ( KFile::Modes m )

Sets the mode of the dialog.

The mode is defined as (in kfile.h):

enum Mode {
     File         = 1,
     Directory    = 2,
     Files        = 4,
     ExistingOnly = 8,
     LocalOnly    = 16
};

You can OR the values, e.g.

KFile::Modes mode = KFile::Files |
                    KFile::ExistingOnly |
                    KFile::LocalOnly );
setMode( mode );

Definition at line 852 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

void KFileDialog::setOperationMode ( KFileDialog::OperationMode mode )

Sets the operational mode of the filedialog to Saving, Opening or Other.

This will set some flags that are specific to loading or saving files. E.g. setKeepLocation() makes mostly sense for a save-as dialog. So setOperationMode( KFileDialog::Saving ); sets setKeepLocation for example.

The mode Saving, together with a default filter set via setMimeFilter() will make the filter combobox read-only.

The default mode is Opening.

Call this method right after instantiating KFileDialog.

See also: operationMode; KFileDialog::OperationMode

Definition at line 924 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

void KFileDialog::setPreviewWidget ( KPreviewWidgetBase * w )

Adds a preview widget and enters the preview mode.

In this mode the dialog is split and the right part contains your preview widget.

Ownership is transferred to KFileDialog. You need to create the preview-widget with "new", i.e. on the heap.

Parameters

w	The widget to be used for the preview.

Definition at line 368 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

void KFileDialog::setSelection ( const QString & name )

Sets the file name to preselect to name.

This takes absolute URLs and relative file names.

Definition at line 429 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

void KFileDialog::setStartDir ( const QUrl & directory )

static

Used by KDirSelectDialog to share the dialog's start directory.

Definition at line 969 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

void KFileDialog::setUrl	(	const QUrl &	url,
		bool	clearforward = `true`
	)

Sets the directory to view.

Parameters

url	URL to show.
clearforward	Indicates whether the forward queue should be cleared.

QSize KFileDialog::sizeHint ( void ) const

overridevirtual

See also: QWidget::sizeHint()

Reimplemented from QDialog.

Definition at line 383 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

KToolBar * KFileDialog::toolBar ( ) const

Returns a pointer to the toolbar.

You can use this to insert custom items into it, e.g.:

yourAction = new KAction( i18n("Your Action"), 0,
                          this, SLOT( yourSlot() ),
                          this, "action name" );
yourAction->plug( kfileDialog->toolBar() );
