KFileMetaInfo Class Reference

from PyKDE4.kio import *

Detailed Description

KFileMetaInfo provides metadata extracted from a file or other resource.

When instantiating an instance of this class, the metadata related to it will be retrieved and stored in the instance. The data can be inspected through KFileMetaInfoItem objects.

Method Documentation

__init__ (  self,
QString  path,
QString  mimetype=QString(),
KFileMetaInfo.WhatFlags  w=KFileMetaInfo.Everything
)

Construct a KFileMetaInfo that contains metainformation about the resource pointed to by path.

When w is not Everything, a limit of 64kbytes is imposed on the file size.

__init__ (  self,
KUrl  url
)

Construct a KFileMetaInfo that contains metainformation about the resource pointed to by url.

Note:
that c'tor is not thread-safe

__init__ (   self )

Construct a KFileMetaInfo instance from another one.

__init__ (  self,
KFileMetaInfo  a0
)

Construct a KFileMetaInfo instance from another one.

bool applyChanges (   self )

Save the changes made to this KFileMetaInfo instance.

bool isValid (   self )
KFileMetaInfoItem item (  self,
QString  key
)
{QString:KFileMetaInfoItem} items (   self )

Retrieve all the items.

QStringList keys (   self )
QStringList preferredKeys (   self )

Enumeration Documentation

What

This is used to specify what a KFileMetaInfo object should read, so you can specify if you want to read "expensive" items or not. This is like a preset which can be customized by passing additional parameters to constructors.
