Detailed Description

This class is the crux of the ParaView application.

It creates and manages various managers which are necessary for the ParaView-based client to work with the ServerManager. For clients based of the pqCore library, simply instantiate this pqApplicationCore after QApplication initialization and then create your main window etc. like a standard Qt application. You can then use the facilities provided by pqCore such as the pqObjectBuilder, pqUndoStack etc. in your application. After that point.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ pqApplicationCore()

pqApplicationCore::pqApplicationCore	(	int &	argc,
		char **	argv,
		pqOptions *	options = `0`,
		QObject *	parent = `0`
	)

Preferred constructor.

Initializes the server-manager engine and sets up the core functionality. If application supports special command line options, pass an instance of pqOptions subclass to the constructor, otherwise a new instance of pqOptions with standard ParaView command line options will be created.

◆ ~pqApplicationCore()

pqApplicationCore::~pqApplicationCore ( )

override

Destructor.

Provides access to the command line options object.

Definition at line 97 of file pqApplicationCore.h.

◆ getObjectBuilder()

pqObjectBuilder* pqApplicationCore::getObjectBuilder ( ) const

inline

Get the Object Builder.

Object Buider must be used to create complex objects such as sources, filters, readers, views, displays etc.

Definition at line 104 of file pqApplicationCore.h.

◆ setUndoStack()

void pqApplicationCore::setUndoStack ( pqUndoStack * stack )

Set/Get the application's central undo stack.

By default no undo stack is provided. Applications must set on up as required.

◆ getUndoStack()

pqUndoStack* pqApplicationCore::getUndoStack ( ) const

inline

Definition at line 111 of file pqApplicationCore.h.

◆ registerManager()

void pqApplicationCore::registerManager	(	const QString &	function,
		QObject *	manager
	)

Custom Applications may need use various "managers" All such manager can be registered with the pqApplicationCore so that that can be used by other components of the application.

Registering with pqApplicationCore gives easy access to these managers from the application code. Note that custom applications are not required to register managers. However certain optional components of the pqCore may expect some managers. Only one manager can be registered for a function.

◆ manager()

QObject* pqApplicationCore::manager ( const QString & function )

Returns a manager for a particular function, if any.

◆ unRegisterManager()

void pqApplicationCore::unRegisterManager ( const QString & function )

Unregisters a manager for a particular function, if any.

◆ registerDocumentation()

void pqApplicationCore::registerDocumentation ( const QString & filename )

QHelpEngine doesn't like filenames in resource space.

This method creates a temporary file for the resource and registers that with the QHelpEngine.

◆ getServerManagerObserver()

pqServerManagerObserver* pqApplicationCore::getServerManagerObserver ( )

inline

ServerManagerObserver observer the vtkSMProxyManager for changes to the server manager and fires signals on certain actions such as registeration/unregistration of proxies etc.

Returns the ServerManagerObserver used by the application.

Definition at line 157 of file pqApplicationCore.h.

◆ getServerManagerModel()

pqServerManagerModel* pqApplicationCore::getServerManagerModel ( ) const

inline

ServerManagerModel is the representation of the ServerManager using pqServerManagerModelItem subclasses.

It makes it possible to explore the ServerManager with ease by separating proxies based on their functionality/type.

Definition at line 165 of file pqApplicationCore.h.

◆ interfaceTracker()

pqInterfaceTracker* pqApplicationCore::interfaceTracker ( ) const

inline

Locates the interface tracker for the application.

pqInterfaceTracker is used to locate all interface implementations typically loaded from plugins.

Definition at line 172 of file pqApplicationCore.h.

◆ getLinksModel()

pqLinksModel* pqApplicationCore::getLinksModel ( ) const

inline

pqLinksModel is the model used to keep track of proxy/property links maintained by vtkSMProxyManager.

TODO: It may be worthwhile to investigate if we even need a global pqLinksModel. All the information is already available in vtkSMProxyManager.

Definition at line 181 of file pqApplicationCore.h.

◆ getMainWindowEventManager()

pqMainWindowEventManager* pqApplicationCore::getMainWindowEventManager ( ) const

inline

pqMainWindowManager manages signals called for main window events.

Definition at line 186 of file pqApplicationCore.h.

◆ getPluginManager()

pqPluginManager* pqApplicationCore::getPluginManager ( ) const

inline

pqPluginManager manages all functionality associated with loading plugins.

Definition at line 194 of file pqApplicationCore.h.

virtual

Provides access to the test utility.

Reimplemented in pqPVApplicationCore.

◆ recentlyUsedResources()

pqRecentlyUsedResourcesList& pqApplicationCore::recentlyUsedResources ( )

Returns the set of recently-used resources i.e.

data files and state files.

◆ serverConfigurations()

pqServerConfigurationCollection& pqApplicationCore::serverConfigurations ( )

Returns the collection of server configurations known.

Server configurations have information about connecting to different servers.

◆ settings()

pqSettings* pqApplicationCore::settings ( )

Get the application settings.

◆ clearSettings()

void pqApplicationCore::clearSettings ( )

Clears the settings.

Since various UI components that only read settings at creation time may get out of sync, it's best to warn the user to restart the application.

Any changes made to pqSettings after calling this method will be lost and will not get restored. If that's not desired, see QSettings::clear.

◆ saveState() [1/2]

vtkPVXMLElement* pqApplicationCore::saveState ( )

Save the ServerManager state to a XML element.

◆ saveState() [2/2]

bool pqApplicationCore::saveState ( const QString & filename )

Save the ServerManager state to a file.

Return true if the operation succeeded otherwise return false.

◆ loadState() [1/2]

void pqApplicationCore::loadState	(	vtkPVXMLElement *	root,
		pqServer *	server,
		vtkSMStateLoader *	loader = `NULL`
	)

◆ stateLoaded

void pqApplicationCore::stateLoaded	(	vtkPVXMLElement *	root,
		vtkSMProxyLocator *	locator
	)
