Detailed Description

A KFileItem is a generic class to handle a file, local or remote.

In particular, it makes it easier to handle the result of KIO::listDir. (UDSEntry isn't very friendly to use) It includes many file attributes such as mimetype, icon, text, mode, link...

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

KFileItem::KFileItem ( const KIO::UDSEntry & _entry,

const KURL & _url,

bool _determineMimeTypeOnDemand = false,

bool _urlIsDirectory = false

)

Creates an item representing a file, from a UDSEntry.
This is the preferred constructor when using KIO::listDir().
Parameters:

_entry the KIO entry used to get the file, contains info about it

_url the file url

_determineMimeTypeOnDemand specifies if the mimetype of the given URL should be determined immediately or on demand

_urlIsDirectory specifies if the url is just the directory of the fileitem and the filename from the UDSEntry should be used.

KFileItem::KFileItem ( mode_t _mode,

mode_t _permissions,

const KURL & _url,

bool _determineMimeTypeOnDemand = false

)

Creates an item representing a file, from all the necessary info for it.

Parameters:

_mode the file mode (according to stat() (e.g. S_IFDIR...) Set to KFileItem::Unknown if unknown. For local files, KFileItem will use stat().

_permissions the access permissions If you set both the mode and the permissions, you save a stat() for local files. Set to KFileItem::Unknown if you don't know the mode or the permission.

_url the file url

_determineMimeTypeOnDemand specify if the mimetype of the given URL should be determined immediately or on demand

KFileItem::KFileItem ( const KURL & url,

const QString & mimeType,

mode_t mode

)

Creates an item representing a file, for which the mimetype is already known.

Parameters:

url the file url

mimeType the name of the file's mimetype

mode the mode (S_IFDIR...)

void KFileItem::setExtraData ( const void * key,

void * value

) [virtual]

This allows to associate some "extra" data to a KFileItem.
As one KFileItem can be used by several objects (often views) which all need to add some data, you have to use a key to reference your extra data within the KFileItem.
That way a KFileItem can hold and provide access to all those views separately.
I.e. a KFileIconView that associates a KFileIconViewItem (an item suitable for use with QIconView) does

kfileItem->setExtraData( this, iconViewItem );

and can later access the iconViewItem by doing

KFileIconViewItem *iconViewItem = static_cast<KFileIconViewItem*>( kfileItem->extraData( this ));

This is usually more efficient then having every view associate data to items by using a separate QDict or QMap.
Note: you have to remove and destroy the data you associated yourself when you don't need it anymore!
