DESCRIPTION
The QTranslatorMessage class contains a translator message
and its properties.
This class is of no interest to most applications, just
for translation tools, e.g. Qt Linguist. It is provided
simply to make the API complete and regular.
For a QTranslator object, a lookup key is a triple (
context, source text, comment ) that uniquely identifies a
message. An extended key is a quadruple ( hash, context,
source text, comment ), where hash is computed from the
source text and the comment. Unless you plan to read and
write messages yourself, you need not worry about the hash
value.
QTranslatorMessage stores theis triple or quadruple, the
relevant translation if there is any, and the status of
the message.
See also QTranslator.

Member Type Documentation
QTranslatorMessage::Prefix
Let ( h, c, s, m ) be the extended key. The possible
prefixes are
NoPrefix - no prefix
Hash - only ( h )
HashContext - only ( h, c )
HashContextSourceText - only ( h, c, s )
HashContextSourceTextComment - the whole extended key, (
h, c, s, m )
See also write() and commonPrefix().
MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATIONQTranslatorMessage::QTranslatorMessage ()
Constructs a translator message with extended key ( 0, "",
"", "" ) and QString::null as translation.
QTranslatorMessage::QTranslatorMessage ( QDataStream & stream )
Constructs a translator message read from a stream. The
resulting message may have any combination of content.
See also save().
QTranslatorMessage::QTranslatorMessage ( const QTranslatorMessage
& m )
Constructs a copy of translator message m.
QTranslatorMessage::QTranslatorMessage ( const char * context,
const char * sourceText, const char * comment, const
QString & translation = QString::null )
Constructs an translator message with extended key ( h,
context, sourceText, comment ), where h is computed from
sourceText and comment, and possibly with a translation.
const char * QTranslatorMessage::comment () const
Returns the comment for this message (e.g., "File >
Save").
QTranslatorMessage::Prefix QTranslatorMessage::commonPrefix(
const QTranslatorMessage & m ) const
Returns the widest lookup prefix that is common to this
translator message and message m.
For example, if the extended key is for this message is (
42, "FunnyDialog"," Yes", "Funny?" ) and that for m is (
42, "FunnyDialog", "No", "Funny?" ), returns HashContext.
See also write().

QTranslatorMessage(3qt)QTranslatorMessage(3qt)const char * QTranslatorMessage::context () const
Returns the context for this message (e.g.,
"FunnyDialog").
uint QTranslatorMessage::hash () const
Returns the hash value used internally to represent the
lookup key. This value is zero only if this translator
message was constructed from a stream containing invalid
data.
The hashing function is unspecified, but it will remain
unchanged in future versions of Qt.
bool QTranslatorMessage::operator!= ( const QTranslatorMessage &
m ) const
Returns TRUE if the extended key of this object is
different from that of m, otherwise FALSE.
bool QTranslatorMessage::operator<; ( const QTranslatorMessage & m
) const
Returns TRUE if the extended key of this object is
lexicographically before than that of m, otherwise FALSE.
bool QTranslatorMessage::operator<;= ( const QTranslatorMessage &
m ) const
Returns TRUE if the extended key of this object is
lexicographically before that of m or if they are equal,
otherwise FALSE.
QTranslatorMessage & QTranslatorMessage::operator= ( const
QTranslatorMessage & m )
Assigns m to this translator message and returns a
reference to this translator message.
bool QTranslatorMessage::operator== ( const QTranslatorMessage &
m ) const
Returns TRUE if the extended key of this object is equal
to that of m, otherwise FALSE.
bool QTranslatorMessage::operator> ( const QTranslatorMessage & m
) const
Returns TRUE if the extended key of this object is
lexicographically after that of m, otherwise FALSE.
bool QTranslatorMessage::operator>= ( const QTranslatorMessage &
m ) const
Returns TRUE if the extended key of this object is
lexicographically after that of m or if they are equal,
otherwise FALSE.
void QTranslatorMessage::setTranslation ( const QString &
translation )
Sets the translation of the source text.
Trolltech AS 13 June 2001 3
QTranslatorMessage(3qt)QTranslatorMessage(3qt)
See also translation().
const char * QTranslatorMessage::sourceText () const
Returns the source text of this message (e.g., "&Save").
QString QTranslatorMessage::translation () const
Returns the translation of the source text (e.g.,
"&Sauvegarder").
See also setTranslation().
void QTranslatorMessage::write ( QDataStream & stream, bool
strip, Prefix prefix = HashContextSourceTextComment )
const
Writes this translator message to a stream. If strip is
FALSE (the default), all the information in the message is
written. If strip is TRUE, only the part of the extended
key specified by prefix is written with the translation
(HashContextSourceTextComment by default).
See also commonPrefix().
