23 * @class OpenUrlJob openurljob.h <KIO/OpenUrlJob>
24 *
25 * @brief OpenUrlJob finds out the right way to "open" a URL.
26 * This includes finding out its MIME type, and then the associated application,
27 * or running desktop files, executables, etc.
28 * It also honours the "use this webbrowser for all http(s) URLs" setting.
29 *
30 * For the "Open With" dialog functionality to work, make sure to set
31 * KIO::JobUiDelegate as the delegate for this job (in widgets applications).
32 * @code
33 * // Since 5.98 use:
34 * job->setUiDelegate(KIO::createDefaultJobUiDelegate(KJobUiDelegate::AutoHandlingEnabled, window));
35 * // For older releases use:
36 * job->setUiDelegate(new KIO::JobUiDelegate(KJobUiDelegate::AutoHandlingEnabled, window));
37 * @endcode
38 *
39 * @since 5.71
