Detailed Description

A QEventTransition object binds an event to a particular QObject. QEventTransition is part of The State Machine Framework.

Example:

QPushButton *button = ...;
QState *s1 = ...;
QState *s2 = ...;
// If in s1 and the button receives an Enter event, transition to s2
QEventTransition *enterTransition = new QEventTransition(button, QEvent::Enter);
enterTransition->setTargetState(s2);
s1->addTransition(enterTransition);
// If in s2 and the button receives an Exit event, transition back to s1
QEventTransition *leaveTransition = new QEventTransition(button, QEvent::Leave);
leaveTransition->setTargetState(s1);
s2->addTransition(leaveTransition);

Subclassing

When reimplementing the eventTest() function, you should first call the base implementation to verify that the event is a QStateMachine::WrappedEvent for the proper object and event type. You may then cast the event to a QStateMachine::WrappedEvent and get the original event by calling QStateMachine::WrappedEvent::event(), and perform additional checks on that object.

Member Function Documentation

QEventTransition::QEventTransition(QObject *object, QEvent::Type type, QState *sourceState = nullptr)

Constructs a new QEventTransition object associated with events of the given type for the given object, and with the given sourceState.

QEventTransition::QEventTransition(QState *sourceState = nullptr)

Constructs a new QEventTransition object with the given sourceState.

[virtual] QEventTransition::~QEventTransition()

Destroys this QObject event transition.

[override virtual protected] bool QEventTransition::event(QEvent *e)

Reimplements: QAbstractTransition::event(QEvent *e).

QObject *QEventTransition::eventSource() const

Returns the event source associated with this event transition.

Note: Getter function for property eventSource.

See also setEventSource().

[override virtual protected] bool QEventTransition::eventTest(QEvent *event)

Reimplements: QAbstractTransition::eventTest(QEvent *event).

QEvent::Type QEventTransition::eventType() const

Returns the event type that this event transition is associated with.

Note: Getter function for property eventType.

See also setEventType().

[override virtual protected] void QEventTransition::onTransition(QEvent *event)

Reimplements: QAbstractTransition::onTransition(QEvent *event).

void QEventTransition::setEventSource(QObject *object)

Sets the event source associated with this event transition to be the given object.

Note: Setter function for property eventSource.

See also eventSource().

void QEventTransition::setEventType(QEvent::Type type)

Sets the event type that this event transition is associated with.

Note: Setter function for property eventType.
