Detailed Description

The widget factory provides methods for the dynamic creation of widgets.

To create these widgets once they must be registered to the factory. To register them use WidgetProducer or any subclasses; to register a preference page use PrefPageProducer instead.

◆ createPreferencePage()

Gui::Dialog::PreferencePage * WidgetFactoryInst::createPreferencePage	(	const char *	sName,
		QWidget *	parent = `nullptr`
	)		const

Creates a widget with the name sName which is a child of parent.

To create an instance of this widget once it must has been registered. If there is no appropriate widget registered nullptr is returned.

References Base::Console(), Base::ConsoleSingleton::Error(), Base::ConsoleSingleton::Log(), Base::Factory::Produce(), and Base::ConsoleSingleton::Warning().

◆ createPrefWidget()

QWidget * WidgetFactoryInst::createPrefWidget	(	const char *	sName,
		QWidget *	parent,
		const char *	sPref
	)

Creates a preference widget with the name sName and the preference name sPref which is a child of parent.

To create an instance of this widget once it must has been registered. If there is no appropriate widget registered nullptr is returned. After creation of this widget its recent preferences are restored automatically.
