Member Function Documentation

void KMacroExpanderBase::expandMacros ( QString str  ) 

Perform safe macro expansion (substitution) on a string.

Parameters:
str the string in which macros are expanded in-place

Definition at line 49 of file kmacroexpander.cpp.

bool KMacroExpanderBase::expandMacrosShellQuote ( QString str  ) 

Same as above, but always starts at position 0, and unmatched closing parens and braces are treated as errors.

Definition at line 281 of file kmacroexpander.cpp.

void KMacroExpanderBase::setEscapeChar ( QChar  c  ) 

Set the macro escape character.

Parameters:
c escape char indicating start of macros, or QChar::null if none

Definition at line 38 of file kmacroexpander.cpp.

QChar KMacroExpanderBase::escapeChar (  )  const

Obtain the macro escape character.

Returns:
escape char indicating start of macros, or QChar::null if none

Definition at line 44 of file kmacroexpander.cpp.

int KMacroExpanderBase::expandPlainMacro ( const QString str,
uint  pos,
QStringList ret 
) [protected, virtual]

This function is called for every single char within the string if the escape char is QChar::null.

It should determine whether the string starting at pos within str is a valid macro and return the substitution value for it if so.

Parameters:
str the input string
pos the offset within str
ret return value: the string to substitute for the macro
Returns:
if greater than zero, the number of chars at pos in str to substitute with ret (i.e., a valid macro was found). if less than zero, subtract this value from pos (to skip a macro, i.e., substitute it with itself). zero requests no special action.

Reimplemented in KWordMacroExpander, and KCharMacroExpander.

Definition at line 287 of file kmacroexpander.cpp.

int KMacroExpanderBase::expandEscapedMacro ( const QString str,
uint  pos,
QStringList ret 
) [protected, virtual]

This function is called every time the escape char is found if it is not QChar::null.

It should determine whether the string starting at pos witin str is a valid macro and return the substitution value for it if so.

Parameters:
str the input string
pos the offset within str. Note that this is the position of the occurrence of the escape char
ret return value: the string to substitute for the macro
Returns:
if greater than zero, the number of chars at pos in str to substitute with ret (i.e., a valid macro was found). if less than zero, subtract this value from pos (to skip a macro, i.e., substitute it with itself). zero requests no special action.

Reimplemented in KWordMacroExpander, and KCharMacroExpander.
