<hr><a name="details"></a><h2>Detailed Description</h2>
The TQCustomEvent class provides support for custom events.
<p>
<p> TQCustomEvent is a generic event class for user-defined events.
User defined events can be sent to widgets or other <a href="ntqobject.html">TQObject</a>
instances using <a href="ntqapplication.html#postEvent">TQApplication::postEvent</a>() or
<a href="ntqapplication.html#sendEvent">TQApplication::sendEvent</a>(). Subclasses of TQObject can easily
receive custom events by implementing the <a href="ntqobject.html#customEvent">TQObject::customEvent</a>()
event handler function.
<p> TQCustomEvent objects should be created with a type ID that
uniquely identifies the event type. To avoid clashes with the
TQt-defined events types, the value should be at least as large as
the value of the "User" entry in the TQEvent::Type enum.
<p> TQCustomEvent contains a generic void* data member that may be used
for transferring event-specific data to the receiver. Note that
since events are normally delivered asynchronously, the data
pointer, if used, must remain valid until the event has been
received and processed.
<p> TQCustomEvent can be used as-is for simple user-defined event
types, but normally you will want to make a subclass of it for
your event types. In a subclass, you can add data members that are
suitable for your event type.
<p> Example:
<pre>
class ColorChangeEvent : public TQCustomEvent
{
public:
ColorChangeEvent( <a href="ntqcolor.html">TQColor</a> color )
: TQCustomEvent( 65432 ), c( color ) {}
<a href="ntqcolor.html">TQColor</a> color() const { return c; }
private:
<a href="ntqcolor.html">TQColor</a> c;
};
// To send an event of this custom event type:
ColorChangeEvent* ce = new ColorChangeEvent( blue );
TQApplication::<a href="ntqapplication.html#postEvent">postEvent</a>( receiver, ce ); // TQt will delete it when done
// To receive an event of this custom event type:
void MyWidget::customEvent( TQCustomEvent * e )
{
if ( e-&gt;<a href="ntqevent.html#type">type</a>() == 65432 ) { // It must be a ColorChangeEvent
ColorChangeEvent* ce = (ColorChangeEvent*)e;
newColor = ce-&gt;color();
}
}
</pre>

<hr><h2>Member Function Documentation</h2>
<h3 class=fn><a name="TQCustomEvent"></a>TQCustomEvent::TQCustomEvent ( int&nbsp;type )
</h3>
Constructs a custom event object with event type <em>type</em>. The
value of <em>type</em> must be at least as large as TQEvent::User. The
data pointer is set to 0.
<h3 class=fn><a name="TQCustomEvent-2"></a>TQCustomEvent::TQCustomEvent ( <a href="ntqevent.html#Type-enum">Type</a>&nbsp;type, void&nbsp;*&nbsp;data )
</h3>
<p> Constructs a custom event object with the event type <em>type</em> and a
pointer to <em>data</em>. (Note that any int value may safely be cast to
TQEvent::Type).
<h3 class=fn>void * <a name="data"></a>TQCustomEvent::data () const
</h3>
<p> Returns a pointer to the generic event data.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#setData">setData</a>().
<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setData"></a>TQCustomEvent::setData ( void&nbsp;*&nbsp;data )
</h3>
<p> Sets the generic data pointer to <em>data</em>.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#data">data</a>().
