\title QEmbed - File and Image Embedder
|
|
|
|
The QEmbed tool, found in \c{qt/tools/qembed}, converts arbitrary files
|
|
into C++ code. This is useful for including image files and other resources
|
|
directly into your application rather than loading the data from external
|
|
files.
|
|
|
|
QEmbed can also generate uncompressed versions of images that can be included
|
|
directly into your application, thus avoiding both the external file and the
|
|
need to parse the image file format. This is useful for small images such as
|
|
icons for which compression is not a great gain.
|
|
|
|
\section1 Usage
|
|
|
|
\code
|
|
qembed [ general-files ] [ --images image-files ]
|
|
\endcode
|
|
|
|
\list
|
|
\i \c{general-files}
|
|
|
|
These files can be any type of file.
|
|
|
|
\i \c{--images image-files}
|
|
|
|
These files must be in image formats supported by Qt.
|
|
\endlist
|
|
|
|
\section1 Output
|
|
|
|
The output from QEmbed is a C++ header file which you should
|
|
include in a C++ source file. In the source file, you should make a
|
|
wrapper function that suits your application. Two functions are
|
|
provided; your wrapper function could just call one of these, or
|
|
you can implement your own. Here's a simple example of usage for each
|
|
of the supplied functions:
|
|
|
|
\section2 qembed_findImage()
|
|
|
|
\code
|
|
#include "generated_qembed_file.h"
|
|
|
|
QImage myFindImage(const char* name)
|
|
{
|
|
return qembed_findImage(name);
|
|
}
|
|
\endcode
|
|
|
|
Just call the generated function; \e name is the original image
|
|
filename <b>without</b> the extension.
|
|
|
|
\section2 qembed_findData()
|
|
|
|
\code
|
|
#include "generated_qembed_file.h"
|
|
|
|
QByteArray myFindData(const char* name)
|
|
{
|
|
return qembed_findData(name);
|
|
}
|
|
\endcode
|
|
|
|
Just call the generated function; \e name is the original filename
|
|
<b>with</b> the extension
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, look at the output from QEmbed and write a function
|
|
tailored to your needs.
