Detailed Description

Provides a user (and developer) friendly way to select files and directories.

The widget can be used as a drop in replacement for the QFileDialog widget, but has greater functionality and a nicer GUI.

You will usually want to use one of the static methods getOpenFileName(), getSaveFileName(), getOpenUrl() or for multiple files getOpenFileNames() or getOpenUrls().

The dialog has been designed to allow applications to customize it by subclassing. It uses geometry management to ensure that subclasses can easily add children that will be incorporated into the layout.

Member Enumeration Documentation

enum KFileDialog::OperationMode

Defines some default behavior of the filedialog.

E.g. in mode Opening and Saving, the selected files/urls will be added to the "recent documents" list. The Saving mode also implies setKeepLocation() being set.

Other means that no default actions are performed.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

KFileDialog::KFileDialog ( const KUrl &  startDir,
const QString &  filter,
QWidget *  parent,
QWidget *  widget = 0 
)

Constructs a file dialog.

Parameters:
startDir This can either be

  • The URL of the directory to start in.
  • A KUrl() to start in the current working directory, or the last directory where a file has been selected.
  • An URL starting with 'kfiledialog:///<keyword>' to start in the directory last used by a filedialog in the same application that specified the same keyword.
  • An URL starting with 'kfiledialog:///<keyword>?global' to start in the directory last used by a filedialog in any application that specified the same keyword.
filter A shell glob or a mime-type-filter that specifies which files to display. See setFilter() and setMimeFilter() for details on how to use this argument.
parent The parent widget of this dialog
widget A widget, or a widget of widgets, for displaying custom data in the dialog. This can be used, for example, to display a check box with the caption "Open as read-only". When creating this widget, you don't need to specify a parent, since the widget's parent will be set automatically by KFileDialog.

Definition at line 82 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

KFileDialog::~KFileDialog (  ) 

Destructs the file dialog.

Definition at line 130 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

Reimplemented from KDialog.

Definition at line 504 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

KUrlComboBox * KFileDialog::locationEdit (  )  const
Returns:
the combobox used to type the filename or full location of the file. You need to link to libkfile to use this widget.

Definition at line 469 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

KFile::Modes KFileDialog::mode (  )  const

Returns the mode of the filedialog.

See also:
setMode()

Definition at line 454 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

KPushButton * KFileDialog::okButton (  )  const
Returns:
a pointer to the OK-Button in the filedialog. You may use it e.g. to set a custom text to it.

Definition at line 459 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

KFileDialog::OperationMode KFileDialog::operationMode (  )  const
Returns:
the current operation mode, Opening, Saving or Other. Default is Other.
See also:
operationMode
KFileDialog::OperationMode

Definition at line 499 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

QString KFileDialog::selectedFile (  )  const

Returns the full path of the selected file in the local filesystem.

(Local files only)

Definition at line 352 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

QStringList KFileDialog::selectedFiles (  )  const

Returns a list of all selected local files.

Definition at line 357 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

KUrl KFileDialog::selectedUrl (  )  const
Returns:
The selected fully qualified filename.

Definition at line 342 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

KUrl::List KFileDialog::selectedUrls (  )  const
Returns:
The list of selected URLs.

Definition at line 347 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

void KFileDialog::selectionChanged (  )  [signal]

Emitted when the user hilights one or more files in multiselection mode.

Note: fileHighlighted() or fileSelected() are not emitted in multiselection mode. You may use selectedItems() to ask for the current highlighted items.

See also:
fileSelected
void KFileDialog::setFilter ( const QString &  filter  ) 

Sets the filter to be used to filter.

You can set more filters for the user to select separated by '\n'. Every filter entry is defined through namefilter|text to display. If no '|' is found in the expression, just the namefilter is shown. Examples:

 kfile->setFilter("*.cpp|C++ Source Files\n*.h|Header files");
 kfile->setFilter("*.cpp");
 kfile->setFilter("*.cpp|Sources (*.cpp)");
 kfile->setFilter("*.cpp|" + i18n("Sources (*.cpp)"));
 kfile->setFilter("*.cpp *.cc *.C|C++ Source Files\n*.h *.H|Header files");

Note: The text to display is not parsed in any way. So, if you want to show the suffix to select by a specific filter, you must repeat it.

If the filter contains an unescaped '/', a mimetype-filter is assumed. If you would like a '/' visible in your filter it can be escaped with a '\'. You can specify multiple mimetypes like this (separated with space):

 kfile->setFilter( "image/png text/html text/plain" );
 kfile->setFilter( "*.cue|CUE\\/BIN Files (*.cue)" );
See also:
filterChanged
setMimeFilter

Definition at line 141 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

void KFileDialog::setKeepLocation ( bool  keep  ) 

Sets whether the filename/url should be kept when changing directories.

This is for example useful when having a predefined filename where the full path for that file is searched.

This is implicitly set when operationMode() is KFileDialog::Saving

getSaveFileName() and getSaveUrl() set this to true by default, so that you can type in the filename and change the directory without having to type the name again.

Definition at line 484 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

void KFileDialog::setLocationLabel ( const QString &  text  ) 

Sets the text to be displayed in front of the selection.

The default is "Location". Most useful if you want to make clear what the location is used for.

Definition at line 136 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

void KFileDialog::setMimeFilter ( const QStringList &  types,
const QString &  defaultType = QString() 
)

Sets the filter up to specify the output type.

Parameters:
types a list of mimetypes that can be used as output format
defaultType the default mimetype to use as output format, if any. If defaultType is set, it will be set as the current item. Otherwise, a first item showing all the mimetypes will be created. Typically, defaultType should be empty for loading and set for saving.

Do not use in conjunction with setFilter()

Definition at line 151 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

void KFileDialog::setMode ( KFile::Modes  m  ) 

Sets the mode of the dialog.

The mode is defined as (in kfile.h):

    enum Mode {
         File         = 1,
         Directory    = 2,
         Files        = 4,
         ExistingOnly = 8,
         LocalOnly    = 16
    };

You can OR the values, e.g.

 KFile::Modes mode = KFile::Files |
                     KFile::ExistingOnly |
                     KFile::LocalOnly );
 setMode( mode );

Definition at line 449 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

void KFileDialog::setOperationMode ( KFileDialog::OperationMode  mode  ) 

Sets the operational mode of the filedialog to Saving, Opening or Other.

This will set some flags that are specific to loading or saving files. E.g. setKeepLocation() makes mostly sense for a save-as dialog. So setOperationMode( KFileDialog::Saving ); sets setKeepLocation for example.

The mode Saving, together with a default filter set via setMimeFilter() will make the filter combobox read-only.

The default mode is Opening.

Call this method right after instantiating KFileDialog.

KFileDialog::OperationMode

Definition at line 494 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

void KFileDialog::setPreviewWidget ( KPreviewWidgetBase *  w  ) 

Adds a preview widget and enters the preview mode.

In this mode the dialog is split and the right part contains your preview widget.

Ownership is transferred to KFileDialog. You need to create the preview-widget with "new", i.e. on the heap.

Parameters:
w The widget to be used for the preview.

Definition at line 172 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

void KFileDialog::setSelection ( const QString &  name  ) 

Sets the file name to preselect to name.

This takes absolute URLs and relative file names.

Definition at line 211 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

void KFileDialog::setStartDir ( const KUrl &  directory  )  [static]

Definition at line 522 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

void KFileDialog::setUrl ( const KUrl &  url,
bool  clearforward = true 
)

Sets the directory to view.

Parameters:
url URL to show.
clearforward Indicates whether the forward queue should be cleared.

Definition at line 206 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

QSize KFileDialog::sizeHint ( void   )  const [virtual]
See also:
QWidget::sizeHint()

Reimplemented from KDialog.

Definition at line 177 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

void KFileDialog::slotCancel (  )  [protected, virtual, slot]

Definition at line 200 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

void KFileDialog::slotOk (  )  [protected, virtual, slot]

Definition at line 183 of file kfiledialog.cpp.

KToolBar * KFileDialog::toolBar (  )  const

Returns a pointer to the toolbar.

You can use this to insert custom items into it, e.g.:

      yourAction = new KAction( i18n("Your Action"), 0,
                                this, SLOT( yourSlot() ),
                                this, "action name" );
      yourAction->plug( kfileDialog->toolBar() );
