The QTextCodecPlugin class provides an abstract base for custom QTextCodec plugins.
The text codec plugin is a simple plugin interface that makes it easy to create custom text codecs that can be loaded dynamically into applications.
Writing a text codec plugin is achieved by subclassing this base class, reimplementing the pure virtual functions names(), aliases(), createForName(), mibEnums() and createForMib(), and exporting the class with the Q_EXPORT_PLUGIN2() macro. See How to Create Qt Plugins for details.
See the IANA character-sets encoding file for more information on mime names and mib enums.
Constructs a text codec plugin with the given parent. This is invoked automatically by the Q_EXPORT_PLUGIN2() macro.
Destroys the text codec plugin.
You never have to call this explicitly. Qt destroys a plugin automatically when it is no longer used.
Returns the list of aliases supported by this plugin.
Creates a QTextCodec object for the mib enum mib.
See the IANA character-sets encoding file for more information.
See also mibEnums().
Creates a QTextCodec object for the codec called name. The name must come from the list of encodings returned by names(). Encoding names are case sensitive.
Example:
QList<QByteArray> MyCodecPlugin::names() const { return QList<QByteArray> << "IBM01140" << "hp15-tw"; } QTextCodec *MyCodecPlugin::createForName(const QByteArray &name) { if (name == "IBM01140") { return new Ibm01140Codec; } else if (name == "hp15-tw") { return new Hp15TwCodec; } return 0; }
See also names().
Returns the list of mib enums supported by this plugin.
See also createForMib().
Returns the list of MIME names supported by this plugin.
If a codec has several names, the extra names are returned by aliases().
See also createForName() and aliases().
