Detailed Description

\class Variant variant.h Nepomuk/Variant

The %Nepomuk Variant extends over QVariant by introducing direct support for Resource embedding, automatic list conversion and a restricted set of supported types.

Important differences are:

No new types can be added other than the ones that have defined

constructors and get-methods

Variant supports automatic list generation. For example a Variant

containing an int also can produce an int-list via the toIntList method.

toString and toStringList always return a valid list and do automatic

conversion from the actual type used in the Variant. Thus, if one only needs to display the value in a Variant toString and toStringList do the job.

__init__ ( self )

__init__	(	self,
		Nepomuk.Variant	other
	)

__init__	(	self,
		QVariant	other
	)

Will create an invalid Variant if other has an unsupported type.

__init__	(	self,
		int	i
	)

__init__	(	self,
		long	i
	)

__init__	(	self,
		long	i
	)

__init__	(	self,
		long	i
	)

__init__	(	self,
		bool	b
	)

__init__	(	self,
		float	d
	)

__init__	(	self,
		QString	string
	)

__init__	(	self,
		QString	string
	)

__init__	(	self,
		QDate	date
	)

		[QDateTime]	datetime
	)

		[QUrl]	url
	)

__init__	(	self,
		[Nepomuk.Resource]	r
	)

append	(	self,
		int	i
	)

Append i to this variant. If the variant already contains an int it will be converted to a list of int.

append	(	self,
		long	i
	)

append	(	self,
		long	i
	)

append	(	self,
		long	i
	)

append	(	self,
		Nepomuk.Resource	r
	)

append	(	self,
		Nepomuk.Variant	v
	)

Appends the value stored in v to the list in this Variant. If this Variant contains a value with the same simple type as v they are merged into a list. Otherwise this Variant will contain one list of simple type v.simpleType()

Nepomuk.Variant fromString	(	QString	value,
		int	type
	)

Create a Variant object by parsing string value based on type. If type is unknown a simple string Variant object is returned containing the plain string value.

bool isBool ( self )

bool isBoolList ( self )

bool isDate ( self )

bool isDateList ( self )

bool isDateTime ( self )

bool isDateTimeList ( self )

bool isDouble ( self )

bool isDoubleList ( self )

bool isInt ( self )

bool isInt64 ( self )

bool isInt64List ( self )

bool isIntList ( self )

bool isList ( self )

This methods does not handle all list types. It checks the following:

QList<Resource>

QList<int>

QList<double>

QList<bool>

QList<QDate>

QList<QTime>

QList<QDateTime>

QList<QUrl>

QList<String> (QStringList)

bool isResource ( self )

bool isResourceList ( self )

bool isString ( self )

bool isStringList ( self )

bool isTime ( self )

bool isTimeList ( self )

bool isUnsignedInt ( self )

bool isUnsignedInt64 ( self )

bool isUnsignedInt64List ( self )

bool isUnsignedIntList ( self )

bool isUrl ( self )

bool isUrlList ( self )

bool isValid ( self )

bool operator !=	(	self,
		Nepomuk.Variant	other
	)

Inverse of operator==

bool operator ==	(	self,
		Nepomuk.Variant	other
	)

Does compare two Variant objects. single-valued lists are treated as the single value itself. For example a QStringList variant with one element "x" equals a QString variant with value "x".

int simpleType ( self )

Returns:: the type of the simple value, i.e. with the list stripped.

bool toBool ( self )

[bool] toBoolList ( self )

QDate toDate ( self )

[QDate] toDateList ( self )

QDateTime toDateTime ( self )

[QDateTime] toDateTimeList ( self )

float toDouble ( self )

[float] toDoubleList ( self )

int toInt ( self )

long toInt64 ( self )

[long] toInt64List ( self )

[int] toIntList ( self )

Nepomuk.Resource toResource ( self )

[Nepomuk.Resource] toResourceList ( self )

QString toString ( self )

The toString() method is a little more powerful than other toXXX methods since it actually converts all values to string. Thus, toString should work always (even list variants are converted to a comma-separated list)

Resources are converted to a string representation of their URI.

QStringList toStringList ( self )

Just like the toString method toStringList is able to convert all supported types into a list of strings.

QTime toTime ( self )

[QTime] toTimeList ( self )

long toUnsignedInt ( self )

long toUnsignedInt64 ( self )

[long] toUnsignedInt64List ( self )

[long] toUnsignedIntList ( self )

QUrl toUrl ( self )

[QUrl] toUrlList ( self )

int type ( self )

Returns:: the QT Meta type id of the type

QVariant variant ( self )
