SYNOPSIS
#include <ntqeditorfactory.h>

Inherits TQObject.

Inherited by QSqlEditorFactory.

  Public Members
QEditorFactory ( TQObject * parent = 0, const char * name = 0 )
~QEditorFactory ()
virtual TQWidget * createEditor ( TQWidget * parent, const QVariant & v )

  Static Public Members
QEditorFactory * defaultFactory ()
void installDefaultFactory ( QEditorFactory * factory )

DESCRIPTION
The QEditorFactory class is used to create editor widgets for QVariant data types.

Each editor factory provides the createEditor() function which given a QVariant will create and return a TQWidget that can edit that QVariant. For example if you have a QVariant::String type, a QLineEdit would be the default editor returned, whereas a QVariant::Int's default editor would be a QSpinBox.

If you want to create different editors for fields with the same data type, subclass QEditorFactory and reimplement the createEditor() function.

MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION

QEditorFactory::QEditorFactory ( TQObject * parent = 0, const char * name = 0 )
Constructs an editor factory with parent parent, called name.

QEditorFactory::~QEditorFactory ()
Destroys the object and frees any allocated resources.

TQWidget * QEditorFactory::createEditor ( TQWidget * parent, const QVariant & v ) [virtual]
Creates and returns the appropriate editor for the QVariant v. If the QVariant is invalid, 0 is returned. The parent is passed to the appropriate editor's constructor.

Reimplemented in QSqlEditorFactory.

QEditorFactory * QEditorFactory::defaultFactory () [static]
Returns an instance of a default editor factory.

void QEditorFactory::installDefaultFactory ( QEditorFactory * factory ) [static]
Replaces the default editor factory with factory. QEditorFactory takes ownership of factory, and destroys it when it is no longer needed.
