DESCRIPTION

       The QMetaProperty class stores meta data about a property.

       Property meta data mainly consists of a type(), a name()
       and the fact, whether a property is writable(),
       designable() or stored().

       The functions isSetType(), isEnumType() and enumKeys()
       provide further information about a property's type. The
       conversion functions keyToValue(), valueToKey(),
       keysToValue() and valueToKeys() allow to convert between
       the integer representation of an enumeration or set value
       and its literal representation.

       Actual property values are set and received through
       QObject's set and get functions. See
       QObject::setProperty() and QObject::property() for
       details.

       You receive meta property data through an object's meta

       QMetaObject::propertyNames() for details.

MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION


void QMetaProperty::clearFlags ( uint f )

       For internal use only.


bool QMetaProperty::designable () const

       Returns whether the property is considered to be
       designable or not.


QStrList QMetaProperty::enumKeys () const

       Returns the possible enumeration keys if this property is
       an enumeration type (or a set type).

       See also isEnumType().


bool QMetaProperty::isEnumType () const

       Returns whether the property's type is an enumeration
       value.

       See also isSetType() and enumKeys().


bool QMetaProperty::isSetType () const

       Returns whether the property's type is an enumeration
       value that is used as set, i.e. the enumeration values can
       be or'ed together. A set type is implicitely also an enum
       type.

       See also isEnumType() and enumKeys().


int QMetaProperty::keyToValue ( const char * key ) const

       Converts the enumeration key key to its integer value.

       For set types, use keysToValue().

       See also valueToKey(), isSetType() and keysToValue().


int QMetaProperty::keysToValue ( const QStrList & keys ) const

       Converts the list of keys keys to their combined integer
       value.

       See also isSetType(), valueToKey() and keysToValue().


const char* QMetaProperty::name () const

       Returns the name of the property.

       For internal use only.


bool QMetaProperty::stored ( QObject * o ) const

       Returns whether the property shall be stored for object o
       or not.


bool QMetaProperty::testFlags ( uint f ) const

       For internal use only.


const char* QMetaProperty::type () const

       Returns the type of the property.


const char* QMetaProperty::valueToKey ( int value ) const

       Converts the enumeration value value to its literal key.

       For set types, use valueToKeys().

       See also valueToKey(), isSetType() and valueToKeys().


QStrList QMetaProperty::valueToKeys ( int value ) const

       Converts the set value value to a list of keys.

       See also isSetType(), valueToKey() and valueToKeys().


bool QMetaProperty::writable () const

       Returns whether the property is writable or not.

       See also isValid().


QMetaProperty::QMetaProperty ()

       For internal use only.


QMetaProperty::~QMetaProperty ()

       For internal use only.


bool QMetaProperty::isValid () const

       For internal use only.
