EntityTreeViewStateSaver Class Reference
from PyKDE4.akonadi import *
Inherits: QObject
Namespace: Akonadi
Detailed Description
A helper class that saves and restores state of an EntityTreeView
This class saves and restores the state of a QTreeView showing an EntityTreeModel, or whatever proxies are stacked on top of one. State so far means the current selection and expansion of the items and collections.
The EntityTreeViewStateSaver is needed because populating the EntityTreeModel is asynchronous and finding the right point in time to restore the state is a difficult task that is hidden inside this class.
Example:
class MyWidget : public QWidget { public: MyWidget( QWidget* parent ); ~MyWidget(); ... private: KConfig *mGlobalConfig; QTreeView *mTreeView; Akonadi.EntityTreeViewStateSaver *mStateSaver; }; MyWidget.MyWidget( QWidget *parent ) : QWidget( parent ) { mGlobalConfig = ... mTreeView = new QTreeView( this ); ... mStateSaver = new Akonadi.EntityTreeViewStateSaver( mTreeView ); KConfigGroup group( mGlobalConfig, "treeViewState" ); mStateSaver->restoreState( group ); } MyWidget.~MyWidget() { KConfigGroup group( mGlobalConfig, "treeViewState" ); mStateSaver->saveState( group ); }

QTreeView | view | |||
) |
Creates a new state saver, for saving or restoring.
- Parameters:
-
view The QTreeView which state should be saved/restored.
restoreState | ( | self, | ||
KConfigGroup | configGroup | |||
) |

-
configGroup Config file group containing a previously stored EntityTreeView state.
