Detailed Description

Factory for input parsers and output formatters.

The factory can be queried for the InputFormat and OutputFormat implementations it knows and can create.

Example: displaying all format names and their respective description

FormatFactory factory;

QByteArrayList inputFormats = factory.inputFormatList();
QByteArrayList::const_iterator it = inputFormats.being();
for (; it != inputFormats.end(); ++it)
{
    InputFormat* inputFormat = factory.inputFormat(*it);
    cout << *it << endl;
    cout << inputFormat->description().local8Bit() << endl;
    delete inputFormat;
}

QByteArrayList outputFormats = factory.outputFormatList();
it = outputFormats.being();
for (; it != outputFormats.end(); ++it)
{
    OutputFormat* outputFormat = factory.outputFormat(*it);
    cout << *it << endl;
    cout << outputFormat->description().local8Bit() << endl;
    delete outputFormat;
}

Member Function Documentation

InputFormat * FormatFactory::inputFormat

(

const QByteArray &

name

)

Creates an InputFormat instance for the given name.

Warning

Every call creates a new instance and the caller gains its ownership, i.e. has to delete it when it isn't used any longer.

Parameters

name	the input format name, as taken from the commandline

Returns

a new InputFormat instance of the input parser associated with the given name or 0 if the name is unknown to the factory

Definition at line 53 of file formatfactory.cpp.

QByteArrayList FormatFactory::inputFormatList ( ) const

inline

Returns a list of input parser names.

Each list entry is a simple string that can be used to identify the parser on the commandline. The factory method inputFormat() will check for exactly those strings.

Returns

a list of input parser names
