Detailed Description

A simple interface for interaction with the clipboard.

This interface enables the interaction with the clipboard. It relies on the possibilities of signal/slot so a class B that implements this interface should be derived from QObject. When connecting to a signal or a slot the class B has to be used, not the interface.

Example:

 KHE::ClipboardInterface *Clipboard = KHE::clipboardInterface( BytesEditWidget );
 if( Clipboard )
 {
   // Yes, use BytesEditWidget, not Clipboard, because that's the QObject, indeed hacky...
   connect( BytesEditWidget, SIGNAL(copyAvailable(bool)), this, SLOT(offerCopy(bool)) );
 }

Member Function Documentation

virtual void KHE::ClipboardInterface::copy (  )  [pure virtual]

tries to copy.

If there is nothing to copy this call is a noop.

virtual void KHE::ClipboardInterface::copyAvailable ( bool  Really  )  [pure virtual]

signal: tells whether copy is possible or not.

Remember to use the created object, not the interface for connecting Use BytesEditInterface::isReadOnly() to find out if you can also cut As this function symbol serves as a signal, this is a noop. Don't use it for anything else.

virtual void KHE::ClipboardInterface::cut (  )  [pure virtual]

tries to cut.

If there is nothing to cut this call is a noop.

virtual void KHE::ClipboardInterface::paste (  )  [pure virtual]

tries to paste.

If there is nothing to paste or paste is not possible this call is a noop. Use BytesEditInterface::isReadOnly() to find out if you can paste at all.
