Member Function Documentation

virtual QWidget* BpsApplicationPlugin::createWidget ( ) [pure virtual]

Create the application widget and return a pointer to it.

The returned widget must be one of BpsApplicationWindow or BpsApplicationWizard.

Returns:
Pointer to new window.
virtual QString BpsApplicationPlugin::groupText ( ) const [pure virtual]
Returns:
Text for the application group QAction.
virtual QIcon BpsApplicationPlugin::icon ( ) const [virtual]
Returns:
Icon for the application QAction.
virtual bool BpsApplicationPlugin::init ( BpsDatastore aDatastore) [pure virtual]

Initialize the plugin.

This method will be called at first after loading the plugin to check if the plugin shall be included in the start menu of the BPS Workplace. It is not recommended to do comprehensive initializations here, because the user might never use the plugin during the session. Instead you should defer such activities until widget() is called.

Parameters:
[in]aDatastoreThe datastore object used by the BPS Workplace.
Returns:
True if plugin is ok to be included in the start menu. False when plugin is not active, for example because of missing user permission or an unlicensed product.

Returns:
Text for the application QAction.
virtual QString BpsApplicationPlugin::toolTip ( ) const [virtual]
