Member Function Documentation

QString UIDOutput::description ( ) const

virtual

Returns a translate description of the output format.

Returns a translated description of the formatter and its general capabilities.

Returns

a short descriptive string how addressee data will be formatted

Note

Implementations should not include the optional settings a formatter understands, this is what optionUsage() is for. As the description is displayed after the format name, it is recommended to add two tabs after each newline for aligned output

Implements OutputFormat.

Definition at line 53 of file outputformatimpls.cpp.

bool UIDOutput::setCodec ( QTextCodec *  codec )

virtual

Sets the text codec to use.

This allows to have the text recoded to a specific text encoding. Depending on the format's specifications not all technically available codecs might be valid. e.g. VCards in version 3.0 are expected to be encoded in UTF-8

Warning

Always set a codec, the output formats need it!

Parameters

codec

the text encoding handler to use

Returns

true if the output format accepts this codec. i.e. can work with it reasonably. Otherwise returns false

Implements OutputFormat.

Definition at line 68 of file outputformatimpls.cpp.

bool UIDOutput::setOptions ( const QByteArray &  options )

virtual

Configures the output format.

Sets formatter options, e.g. which parts of the addressee data to use or which markup to apply.

Parameters

options

a string as taken from the commandline

Returns

false if the options are not valid or if the input format doesn't support options. true if the options where valid

Note

Implementations can use any format in their options string. However it is recommended to stay consistent with the other format implementations and use a comma separated list

Implements OutputFormat.

Definition at line 60 of file outputformatimpls.cpp.

bool UIDOutput::writeAddressee ( const KABC::Addressee &  addressee, std::ostream &  stream  )

virtual

Writes the data of a given addressee to the given output stream.

Depending on the formatter and its settings it will write all or portions of the available addressee data to the stream.

Warning

a format could require either header or footer around related addressees so use this only for single addressee output, i.e. not when iterating over a list of related addressees.

Parameters

addressee	the addressee object to take data from
stream	the standard output stream to write to

Note

Implementations that do not need to handle addressee relations can of course implement the writing in this method and just call it from writeAddresseeList() when iterating over the list

KABC::Addressee

setCodec()

std::ostream

Implements OutputFormat.

Definition at line 79 of file outputformatimpls.cpp.

bool UIDOutput::writeAddresseeList ( const KABC::AddresseeList &  addresseeList, std::ostream &  stream  )

virtual

Writes the data from each addressee in the given list to the given output stream.

Depending on the formatter and its settings it will write all or portions of the available addressee data to the stream.

Parameters

addresseeList	a list of addressee objects
stream	the standard output stream to write to

Note

Implementations that do not need to handle each addressee differently for example numbering them, can call the writeAddressee() method on each entry of the given list
