Constructor & Destructor Documentation
| KMacroExpanderBase::KMacroExpanderBase | ( | QChar | c = '%' |
) |
Constructor.
- Parameters:
-
c escape char indicating start of macros, or QChar::null for none

| KMacroExpanderBase::~KMacroExpanderBase | ( | ) | [virtual] |
Member Function Documentation
| QChar KMacroExpanderBase::escapeChar | ( | ) | const |
Obtain the macro escape character.
- Returns:
- escape char indicating start of macros, or QChar::null if none
Definition at line 44 of file kmacroexpander.cpp.
| int KMacroExpanderBase::expandEscapedMacro | ( | const QString & | str, | |
| uint | pos, | |||
| QStringList & | ret | |||
| ) | [protected, virtual] |
This function is called every time the escape char is found if it is not QChar::null.
It should determine whether the string starting at pos witin str is a valid macro and return the substitution value for it if so.
- Parameters:
-
str the input string pos the offset within str. Note that this is the position of the occurrence of the escape charret return value: the string to substitute for the macro
- Returns:
- if greater than zero, the number of chars at
posinstrto substitute withret(i.e., a valid macro was found). if less than zero, subtract this value frompos(to skip a macro, i.e., substitute it with itself). zero requests no special action.
Reimplemented in KWordMacroExpander, and KCharMacroExpander.

| void KMacroExpanderBase::expandMacros | ( | QString & | str | ) |
Perform safe macro expansion (substitution) on a string.
- Parameters:
-
str the string in which macros are expanded in-place
Definition at line 49 of file kmacroexpander.cpp.
| bool KMacroExpanderBase::expandMacrosShellQuote | ( | QString & | str | ) |
Same as above, but always starts at position 0, and unmatched closing parens and braces are treated as errors.
Definition at line 281 of file kmacroexpander.cpp.
| int KMacroExpanderBase::expandPlainMacro | ( | const QString & | str, | |
| uint | pos, | |||
| QStringList & | ret | |||
| ) | [protected, virtual] |
This function is called for every single char within the string if the escape char is QChar::null.
It should determine whether the string starting at pos within str is a valid macro and return the substitution value for it if so.
- Parameters:
-
str the input string pos the offset within strret return value: the string to substitute for the macro
- Returns:
- if greater than zero, the number of chars at
posinstrto substitute withret(i.e., a valid macro was found). if less than zero, subtract this value frompos(to skip a macro, i.e., substitute it with itself). zero requests no special action.
Reimplemented in KWordMacroExpander, and KCharMacroExpander.

| void KMacroExpanderBase::setEscapeChar | ( | QChar | c | ) |
Set the macro escape character.
- Parameters:
-
c escape char indicating start of macros, or QChar::null if none
