The QAxBase class is an abstract class that provides an API to initialize and access a COM object.
QAxBase is an abstract class that cannot be used directly, and is instantiated through the subclasses QAxObject and QAxWidget . This class provides the API to access the COM object directly through its IUnknown implementation. If the COM object implements the IDispatch interface, the properties and methods of that object become available as Qt properties and slots.
connect(buttonBack, SIGNAL(clicked()), webBrowser, SLOT(GoBack()));
Properties exposed by the object's IDispatch implementation can be read and written through the property system provided by the Qt Object Model (both subclasses are QObjects , so you can use QObject.setProperty () 和 QObject.property ()). Properties with multiple parameters are not supported.
activeX->setProperty("text", "some text"); int value = activeX->property("value");
Write-functions for properties and other methods exposed by the object's IDispatch implementation can be called directly using dynamicCall (), or indirectly as slots connected to a signal.
webBrowser->dynamicCall("GoHome()");
Outgoing events supported by the COM object are emitted as standard Qt signals.
connect(webBrowser, SIGNAL(TitleChanged(QString)), this, SLOT(setCaption(QString)));
QAxBase transparently converts between COM data types and the equivalent Qt data types. Some COM types have no equivalent Qt data 结构。
Supported COM datatypes are listed in the first column of following table. The second column is the Qt type that can be used 采用 QObject property functions. The third column is the Qt type that is used in the prototype of generated signals and slots for in-parameters, and the last column is the Qt type that is used in the prototype of signals and slots for out-parameters.
| COM type | Qt property | in-parameter | out-parameter |
|---|---|---|---|
| VARIANT_BOOL | bool | bool | bool& |
| BSTR | QString | const QString & | QString & |
| char, short, int, long | int | int | int& |
| uchar, ushort, uint, ulong | uint | uint | uint& |
| float, double | double | double | double& |
| DATE | QDateTime | const QDateTime & | QDateTime & |
| CY | qlonglong | qlonglong | qlonglong& |
| OLE_COLOR | QColor | const QColor & | QColor & |
| SAFEARRAY(VARIANT) | QList < QVariant > | const QList < QVariant >& | QList < QVariant >& |
| SAFEARRAY(int), SAFEARRAY(double), SAFEARRAY(Date) | QList < QVariant > | const QList < QVariant >& | QList < QVariant >& |
| SAFEARRAY(BYTE) | QByteArray | const QByteArray & | QByteArray & |
| SAFEARRAY(BSTR) | QStringList | const QStringList & | QStringList & |
| VARIANT | type-dependent | const QVariant & | QVariant & |
| IFontDisp* | QFont | const QFont & | QFont & |
| IPictureDisp* | QPixmap | const QPixmap & | QPixmap & |
| IDispatch* | QAxObject * | QAxBase.asVariant() | QAxObject * (return value) |
| IUnknown* | QAxObject * | QAxBase.asVariant() | QAxObject * (return value) |
| SCODE, DECIMAL | unsupported | unsupported | unsupported |
| VARIANT* (Since Qt 4.5) | unsupported | QVariant& | QVariant& |
Supported are also enumerations, and typedefs to supported 类型。
To call the methods of a COM interface described by the following IDL
dispinterface IControl
{
properties:
[id(1)] BSTR text;
[id(2)] IFontDisp *font;
methods:
[id(6)] void showColumn([in] int i);
[id(3)] bool addColumn([in] BSTR t);
[id(4)] int fillList([in, out] SAFEARRAY(VARIANT) *list);
[id(5)] IDispatch *item([in] int i);
};
use the QAxBase API like this:
QAxObject object("<CLSID>"); QString text = object.property("text").toString(); object.setProperty("font", QFont("Times New Roman", 12)); connect(this, SIGNAL(clicked(int)), &object, SLOT(showColumn(int))); bool ok = object.dynamicCall("addColumn(const QString&)", "Column 1").toBool(); QList<QVariant> varlist; QList<QVariant> parameters; parameters << QVariant(varlist); int n = object.dynamicCall("fillList(QList<QVariant>&)", parameters).toInt(); QAxObject *item = object.querySubItem("item(int)", 5);
注意: QList the object should fill has to be provided as an element in the parameter list of QVariant s.
If you need to access properties or pass parameters of unsupported datatypes you must access the COM object directly through its IDispatch implementation or other interfaces. Those interfaces can be retrieved through queryInterface ().
IUnknown *iface = 0; activeX->queryInterface(IID_IUnknown, (void**)&iface); if (iface) { // use the interface iface->Release(); }
To get the definition of the COM interfaces you will have to use the header files provided with the component you want to use. Some compilers can also import type libraries using the #import compiler directive. See the component documentation to find out which type libraries you have to import, and how to use them.
If you need to react to events that pass parameters of unsupported datatypes you can use the generic signal that delivers the event data as provided by the COM event.
创建 QAxBase object that wraps the COM object iface 。若 iface is 0 (the default), use setControl () 到 instantiate a COM object.
返回 QVariant that wraps the COM object. The variant can then be used as a parameter in e.g. dynamicCall ().
Disconnects and destroys the COM object.
If you reimplement this function you must also reimplement the destructor to call clear(), and call this implementation at the end of your clear() function.
Disables the class info generation for this ActiveX container. If you don't require any class information about the ActiveX control use this function to speed up the meta object generation.
Note that this function must be called immediately after construction of the object
Disables the event sink implementation for this ActiveX container. If you don't intend to listen to the ActiveX control's events use this function to speed up the meta object generation.
Some ActiveX controls might be unstable when connected to an event sink. To get OLE events you must use standard COM methods to register your own event sink. Use queryInterface () to get access to the raw COM object.
Note that this function should be called immediately after construction of the object.
Disables the meta object generation for this ActiveX container. This also disables the event sink and class info generation. If you don't intend to use the Qt meta object implementation call this function to speed up instantiation of the control. You will still be able to call the object through dynamicCall (), but signals, slots and properties will not be available with QObject APIs.
Some ActiveX controls might be unstable when used with OLE automation. Use standard COM methods to use those controls through the COM interfaces provided by queryInterface ().
Note that this function must be called immediately after construction of the object.
Calls the COM object's method function , passing the 参数 var1 , var1 , var2 , var3 , var4 , var5 , var6 , var7 and var8 , and returns the value returned by the method, or an invalid QVariant if the method does not return a value or when the function call failed.
若 function is a method of the object the string must be provided as the full prototype, for example as it would be written 在 QObject.connect () 调用。
activeX->dynamicCall("Navigate(const QString&)", "www.qt-project.org");
Alternatively a function can be called passing the parameters embedded in the string, e.g. above function can also be invoked 使用
activeX->dynamicCall("Navigate(\"www.qt-project.org\")");
All parameters are passed as strings; it depends on the control whether they are interpreted correctly, and is slower than using the prototype with correctly typed parameters.
若 function is a property the string has to be the name of the property. The property setter is called when var1 is a valid QVariant , otherwise the getter 被调用。
activeX->dynamicCall("Value", 5); QString text = activeX->dynamicCall("Text").toString();
Note that it is faster to get and set properties using QObject.property () 和 QObject.setProperty ().
dynamicCall() can also be used to call objects with a disabled metaobject wrapper, which can improve performance significantely, esp. when calling many different objects of different types during an automation process. ActiveQt will then however not validate parameters.
It is only possible to call functions through dynamicCall() that have parameters or return values of datatypes supported by QVariant 。见 QAxBase class documentation for a list of supported and unsupported datatypes. If you want to call functions that have unsupported datatypes in the parameter list, use queryInterface () 以检索 appropriate COM interface, and use the function directly.
IWebBrowser2 *webBrowser = 0; activeX->queryInterface(IID_IWebBrowser2, (void **)&webBrowser); if (webBrowser) { webBrowser->Navigate2(pvarURL); webBrowser->Release(); }
This is also more efficient.
这是重载函数。
Calls the COM object's method function , passing the parameters in vars , and returns the value returned by the method. If the method does not return a value or when the function call failed this function returns an invalid QVariant 对象。
QVariant objects in vars are updated when the method has out-parameters.
Returns a rich text string with documentation for the wrapped COM object. Dump the string to an HTML-file, or use it in e.g. a QTextBrowser 小部件。
Returns true if there is no COM object loaded by this wrapper; otherwise return false.
另请参阅 control .
Returns a name:value map of all the properties exposed by the COM object.
This is more efficient than getting multiple properties individually if the COM object supports property bags.
警告: It is not guaranteed that the property bag implementation of the COM object returns all properties, or that the properties returned are the same as those available through the IDispatch interface.
另请参阅 setPropertyBag ().
Returns true if the property prop is writable; otherwise returns false. By default, all properties are writable.
警告: Depending on the control implementation this setting might be ignored for some properties.
另请参阅 setPropertyWritable () 和 propertyChanged ().
返回指针指向 QAxObject wrapping the COM object provided by the method or property name , passing passing the parameters var1 , var1 , var2 , var3 , var4 , var5 , var6 , var7 and var8 .
若 name is provided by a method the string must include the full function prototype.
若 name is a property the string must be the name of the property, and var1 , ... var8 被忽略。
返回的 QAxObject is a child of this object (which is either of type QAxObject or QAxWidget ), and is deleted when this object is deleted. It is however safe to delete the returned object yourself, and you should do so when you iterate over lists of subobjects.
COM enabled applications usually have an object model publishing certain elements of the application as dispatch interfaces. Use this method to navigate the hierarchy of the object model, e.g.
QAxWidget outlook("Outlook.Application"); QAxObject *session = outlook.querySubObject("Session"); if (session) { QAxObject *defFolder = session->querySubObject( "GetDefaultFolder(OlDefaultFolders)", "olFolderContacts"); //... }
这是重载函数。
QVariant objects in vars are updated when the method has out-parameters.
Sets the properties of the COM object to the corresponding values in bag .
警告: You should only set property bags that have been returned by the propertyBag function, as it cannot be guaranteed that the property bag implementation of the COM object supports the same properties that are available through the IDispatch 接口。
另请参阅 propertyBag ().
设置特性 prop to writable if ok is true, otherwise sets prop to be read-only. By default, all properties are writable.
警告: Depending on the control implementation this setting might be ignored for some properties.
另请参阅 propertyWritable () 和 propertyChanged ().
Returns the list of verbs that the COM object can execute. If the object does not implement IOleObject, or does not support any verbs, then this function returns an empty stringlist.
Note that the OLE default verbs (OLEIVERB_SHOW etc) are not included in the list.
该函数在 Qt 4.1 引入。
This is the default overload of this signal.
This signal is emitted when the COM object throws an exception while called using the OLE automation interface IDispatch. code , source , desc and help provide information about the exception as provided by the COM server and can be used to provide useful feedback to the end user. help includes the help file, and the help context ID in brackets, e.g. "filename [id]".
This is the default overload of this signal.
If the COM object supports property notification, this signal gets emitted when the property called name is changed.
This is the default overload of this signal.
This generic signal gets emitted when the COM object issues the event name . argc is the number of parameters provided by the event (DISPPARAMS.cArgs), and argv is the pointer to the parameter values (DISPPARAMS.rgvarg). Note that the order of parameter values is turned around, ie. the last element of the array is the first parameter in the function.
void Receiver.slot(const QString &name, int argc, void *argv) { VARIANTARG *params = (VARIANTARG*)argv; if (name.startsWith("BeforeNavigate2(")) { IDispatch *pDisp = params[argc-1].pdispVal; VARIANTARG URL = *params[argc-2].pvarVal; VARIANTARG Flags = *params[argc-3].pvarVal; VARIANTARG TargetFrameName = *params[argc-4].pvarVal; VARIANTARG PostData = *params[argc-5].pvarVal; VARIANTARG Headers = *params[argc-6].pvarVal; bool *Cancel = params[argc-7].pboolVal; } }
Use this signal if the event has parameters of unsupported data types. Otherwise, connect directly to the signal name .
