Detailed Description

A basic message object used for exchanging filtering information between the filter plugins and the application requesting the filtering service.

Use this object if you require a more detailed information about the URI you want to filter. Any application can create an instance of this class and send it to KURIFilter to have the plugins fill out all possible information about the URI.

Example

   QString text = "kde.org";
   KURIFilterData d = text;
   bool filtered = KURIFilter::self()->filter( d );
   cout << "URL: " << text.latin1() << endl
        << "Filtered URL: " << d.uri().url().latin1() << endl
        << "URI Type: " << d.uriType() << endl
        << "Was Filtered: " << filtered << endl;

The above code should yield the following output:

   URI: kde.org
   Filtered URI: http://kde.org
   URI Type: 0            <== means NET_PROTOCOL
   Was Filtered: 1        <== means the URL was successfully filtered

A message object for exchanging filtering URI info.

Member Enumeration Documentation

enum KURIFilterData::URITypes

Describes the type of the URI that was filtered.

Here is a brief description of the types:

• NET_PROTOCOL - Any network protocol: http, ftp, nttp, pop3, etc...
• LOCAL_FILE - A local file whose executable flag is not set
• LOCAL_DIR - A local directory
• EXECUTABLE - A local file whose executable flag is set
• HELP - A man or info page
• SHELL - A shell executable (ex: echo "Test..." >> ~/testfile)
• BLOCKED - A URI that should be blocked/filtered (ex: ad filtering)
• ERROR - An incorrect URI (ex: "~johndoe" when user johndoe does not exist in that system )
• UNKNOWN - A URI that is not identified. Default value when a KURIFilterData is first created.

Enumerator:

NET_PROTOCOL
LOCAL_FILE
LOCAL_DIR
EXECUTABLE
HELP
SHELL
BLOCKED
ERROR
UNKNOWN

Returns:

options and arguments when present, otherwise QString::null

Definition at line 153 of file kurifilter.cpp.

bool KURIFilterData::checkForExecutables

(

)

const [inline]

Returns:

true if the filters should attempt to check whether the supplied uri is an executable. False otherwise.

Since:

3.2

Definition at line 277 of file kurifilter.h.

QString KURIFilterData::errorMsg

(

)

const [inline]

Returns an error message.

This functions returns the error message set by the plugin whenever the uri type is set to KURIFilterData::ERROR. Otherwise, it returns a QString::null.

Returns:

the error message or a NULL when there is none.

Definition at line 168 of file kurifilter.h.

bool KURIFilterData::hasAbsolutePath

(

)

const

Checks whether the supplied data had an absolute path.

Returns:

true if the supplied data has an absolute path

See also:

absolutePath()

Definition at line 131 of file kurifilter.cpp.

bool KURIFilterData::hasArgsAndOptions

(

)

const

Checks whether the current data is a local resource with command line options and arguments.

Returns:

true if the current data has command line options and arguments

Definition at line 126 of file kurifilter.cpp.

KDE_DEPRECATED bool KURIFilterData::hasBeenFiltered

(

)

const [inline]

This method has been deprecated and will always return true.

You should instead use the result from the KURIFilter::filterURI() calls.

Deprecated:

Definition at line 144 of file kurifilter.h.

QString KURIFilterData::iconName

(

)

Returns the name of the icon that matches the current filtered URL.

NOTE that this function will return a NULL string by default and when no associated icon is found.

Returns:

the name of the icon associated with the resource, or QString::null if not found

Definition at line 158 of file kurifilter.cpp.

void KURIFilterData::init

(

const QString &

url = QString::null

If deriving the path from a KURL, make sure you set the argument for this function to the result of calling path () instead of url ().

true if absolute path is successfully set. Otherwise, false.

Definition at line 136 of file kurifilter.cpp.

void KURIFilterData::setCheckForExecutables
