Detailed Description

The TQFileIconProvider class provides icons for TQFileDialog to use.

By default TQFileIconProvider is not used, but any application or library can subclass it, reimplement pixmap() to return a suitable icon, and make all TQFileDialog objects use it by calling the static function TQFileDialog::setIconProvider().

It is advisable to make all the icons that TQFileIconProvider returns be the same size or at least the same width. This makes the list view look much better.

Member Function Documentation

TQFileIconProvider::TQFileIconProvider ( TQObject * parent = 0, const char * name = 0 )

Constructs an empty file icon provider called name, with the parent parent.

const TQPixmap * TQFileIconProvider::pixmap ( const TQFileInfo & info ) `[virtual]`

Returns a pointer to a pixmap that should be used to signify the file with the information info.

If pixmap() returns 0, TQFileDialog draws the default pixmap.

The default implementation returns particular icons for files, directories, link-files and link-directories. It returns a blank "icon" for other types.

If you return a pixmap here, it should measure 16x16 pixels.
