|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
The QSqlForm class creates and manages data entry forms
|
||
|
tied to SQL databases.
|
||
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p> Typical use of a QSqlForm consists of the following steps:
|
||
|
<ul>
|
||
|
<li> Create the widgets you want to appear in the form.
|
||
|
<li> Create a cursor and navigate to the record to be edited.
|
||
|
<li> Create the QSqlForm.
|
||
|
<li> Set the form's record buffer to the cursor's update buffer.
|
||
|
<li> Insert each widget and the field it is to edit into the form.
|
||
|
<li> Use <a href="#readFields">readFields</a>() to update the editor widgets with values from
|
||
|
the database's fields.
|
||
|
<li> Display the form and let the user edit values etc.
|
||
|
<li> Use <a href="#writeFields">writeFields</a>() to update the database's field values with
|
||
|
the values in the editor widgets.
|
||
|
</ul>
|
||
|
<p> Note that a QSqlForm does not access the database directly, but
|
||
|
most often via QSqlFields which are part of a <a href="qsqlcursor.html">QSqlCursor</a>. A
|
||
|
<a href="qsqlcursor.html#insert">QSqlCursor::insert</a>(), <a href="qsqlcursor.html#update">QSqlCursor::update</a>() or <a href="qsqlcursor.html#del">QSqlCursor::del</a>()
|
||
|
call is needed to actually write values to the database.
|
||
|
<p> Some sample code to initialize a form successfully:
|
||
|
<p> <pre>
|
||
|
<a href="qlineedit.html">QLineEdit</a> myEditor( this );
|
||
|
QSqlForm myForm( this );
|
||
|
<a href="qsqlcursor.html">QSqlCursor</a> myCursor( "mytable" );
|
||
|
|
||
|
// Execute a query to make the cursor valid
|
||
|
myCursor.<a href="qsqlcursor.html#select">select</a>();
|
||
|
// Move the cursor to a valid record (the first record)
|
||
|
myCursor.<a href="qsqlquery.html#next">next</a>();
|
||
|
// Set the form's record pointer to the cursor's edit buffer (which
|
||
|
// contains the current record's values)
|
||
|
myForm.<a href="#setRecord">setRecord</a>( myCursor.<a href="qsqlcursor.html#primeUpdate">primeUpdate</a>() );
|
||
|
|
||
|
// Insert a field into the form that uses myEditor to edit the
|
||
|
// field 'somefield' in 'mytable'
|
||
|
myForm.<a href="#insert">insert</a>( &myEditor, "somefield" );
|
||
|
|
||
|
// Update myEditor with the value from the mapped database field
|
||
|
myForm.<a href="#readFields">readFields</a>();
|
||
|
...
|
||
|
// Let the user edit the form
|
||
|
...
|
||
|
// Update the database
|
||
|
myForm.<a href="#writeFields">writeFields</a>(); // Update the cursor's edit buffer from the form
|
||
|
myCursor.<a href="qsqlcursor.html#update">update</a>(); // Update the database from the cursor's buffer
|
||
|
</pre>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p> If you want to use custom editors for displaying and editing data
|
||
|
fields, you must install a custom <a href="qsqlpropertymap.html">QSqlPropertyMap</a>. The form
|
||
|
uses this object to get or set the value of a widget.
|
||
|
<p> Note that <a href="designer-manual.html">Qt Designer</a> provides
|
||
|
a visual means of creating data-aware forms.
|
||
|
<p> <p>See also <a href="#installPropertyMap">installPropertyMap</a>(), <a href="qsqlpropertymap.html">QSqlPropertyMap</a>, and <a href="database.html">Database Classes</a>.

||
|
<h3 class=fn>uint <a name="count"></a>QSqlForm::count () const
|
||
|
</h3>
|
||

|
||
|
<h3 class=fn><a href="qwidget.html">QWidget</a> * <a name="fieldToWidget"></a>QSqlForm::fieldToWidget ( <a href="qsqlfield.html">QSqlField</a> * field ) const

</h3>
|
||
|
Inserts a <em>widget</em>, and the name of the <em>field</em> it is to be
|
||
|
mapped to, into the form. To actually associate inserted widgets
|
||
|

|
||
|
create your own custom editor widgets.
|
||
|
<p> QSqlForm takes ownership of <em>pmap</em>, so <em>pmap</em> is deleted when
|
||
|
QSqlForm goes out of scope.
|
||
|
<p> <p>See also <a href="qdatatable.html#installEditorFactory">QDataTable::installEditorFactory</a>().

|
display of the data from <em>buf</em>, use <a href="#readFields">readFields</a>().

<p> <p>See also <a href="#readFields">readFields</a>() and <a href="#writeFields">writeFields</a>().
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
</h3>
|
||
|
Updates the SQL fields with values from the widgets they are
|

||
|
the record buffer, use <a href="qsqlcursor.html#insert">QSqlCursor::insert</a>(), <a href="qsqlcursor.html#update">QSqlCursor::update</a>()
