Detailed Description

TheQWebInspector class allows the placement and control of aQWebPage's inspector. The inspector can display a page's hierarchy, its loading statistics and the current state of its individual elements. It is mostly used by web developers.

TheQWebPage to be inspected must be specified using thesetPage() method.

A typical use ofQWebInspector follows:

// ...QWebPage*page=newQWebPage;// ...QWebInspector*inspector=newQWebInspector;    inspector->setPage(page);

AQWebInspector can be made visible either programmatically usingsetVisible(), or by the user through the attachedQWebPage's context menu.

Note:AQWebInspector will display a blank widget if either:

• page() is null
• QWebSettings::DeveloperExtrasEnabled is false

Resources

This class acts mostly as a container and a controller for the inspector. Most of the resources needed by the inspector are owned by the associatedQWebPage and are allocated the first time that:

• an element is inspected
• theQWebInspector is shown.

Inspector configuration persistence

The inspector allows the user to configure some options through its user interface (e.g. the resource tracking "Always enable" option). These settings will be persisted automatically byQtWebKit only if your application previously calledQCoreApplication::setOrganizationName() andQCoreApplication::setApplicationName(). SeeQSettings's default constructor documentation for an explanation of why this is necessary.

Member Function Documentation

QWebInspector::QWebInspector(QWidget * parent = 0)

Constructs an unboundQWebInspector withparent as its parent.

QWebInspector::~QWebInspector()

Destroys the inspector.

[virtual protected]void QWebInspector::closeEvent(QCloseEvent * event)

Reimplemented fromQWidget::closeEvent().

[virtual]bool QWebInspector::event(QEvent * ev)

Reimplemented fromQObject::event().

[virtual protected]void QWebInspector::hideEvent(QHideEvent * event)

Reimplemented fromQWidget::hideEvent().

QWebPage * QWebInspector::page() const

Returns the inspectedQWebPage. If no web page is currently associated, a null pointer is returned.

See alsosetPage().

[virtual protected]void QWebInspector::resizeEvent(QResizeEvent * event)

Reimplemented fromQWidget::resizeEvent().

void QWebInspector::setPage(QWebPage * page)

Bind this inspector to theQWebPage to be inspected.

Notes:

• There can only be oneQWebInspector associated with aQWebPage and vice versa.
• Calling this method with a nullpage will break the current association, if any.
• Ifpage is already associated to anotherQWebInspector, the association will be replaced and the previousQWebInspector will become unbound

See alsopage().

[virtual protected]void QWebInspector::showEvent(QShowEvent * event)

Reimplemented fromQWidget::showEvent().

[virtual]QSize QWebInspector::sizeHint() const

Reimplemented fromQWidget::sizeHint().
