KFilterBase Class Reference

from PyKDE4.kdecore import *

Detailed Description

Abstract class:

This class can be used as a base class for new classes, but can not be instantiated directly.

This is the base class for compression filters such as gzip and bzip2. It's pretty much internal. Don't use directly, use KFilterDev instead.

Method Documentation

__init__

(

self )

__init__	(	self,
		KFilterBase	a0
	)

KFilterBase.Result compress	(	self,
		bool	finish
	)

Abstract method:

This method is abstract and can be overridden but not called directly.

Internal:

QIODevice device

(

self )

Returns the device on which the filter will work.

Returns:

the device on which the filter will work

KFilterBase findFilterByFileName	(	QString	fileName
	)

Call this to create the appropriate filter for the file named fileName.

Parameters:

fileName

the name of the file to filter

Returns:

the filter for the fileName, or 0 if not found

KFilterBase findFilterByMimeType	(	QString	mimeType
	)

Call this to create the appropriate filter for the mimetype mimeType. For instance application/x-gzip.

Parameters:

mimeType

the mime type of the file to filter

Returns:

the filter for the mimeType, or 0 if not found

int inBufferAvailable

(

self )

Internal:

reset

(

self )

Internal:

setDevice	(	self,
		QIODevice	dev,
		bool	autodelete=0
	)

Sets the device on which the filter will work

Parameters:

	dev	the device on which the filter will work
	autodelete	if true, dev is deleted when the filter is deleted

setInBuffer	(	self,
		QString	data,
		long	size
	)

Internal:

virtual_hook	(	self,
		int	id,
		void	data
	)

Virtual hook, used to add new "virtual" functions while maintaining binary compatibility. Unused in this class.

bool writeHeader	(	self,
		QByteArray	filename
	)
