static void pqCoreUtilities::setMainWidget

(

QWidget *

widget

)

[inline, static]

When popuping up dialogs, it's generally better if we set the parent widget for those dialogs to be the QMainWindow so that the dialogs show up centered correctly in the application.

For that purpose this convenience method is provided. It locates a QMainWindow and returns it.

[inline, static]

static void pqCoreUtilities::processEvents

(

QEventLoop::ProcessEventsFlags

flags = QEventLoop::AllEvents

)

[inline, static]

Call QApplication::processEvents plus make sure the testing framework is.

Definition at line 95 of file pqCoreUtilities.h.

static QString pqCoreUtilities::getParaViewUserDirectory

(

)

[static]

Return the path of the root ParaView user specific configuration directory.

static QString pqCoreUtilities::getParaViewApplicationDirectory

(

)

[static]

Return the path of the launched application.

static QStringList pqCoreUtilities::findParaviewPaths	(	QString	directoryOrFileName,
		bool	lookupInAppDir,
		bool	lookupInUserDir
	)		[static]

Return the list of full available path that exists inside the shared application path and the user specific one.

static QString pqCoreUtilities::getNoneExistingFileName

(

QString

expectedFilePath

)

[static]

static unsigned long pqCoreUtilities::connect	(	vtkObject *	vtk_object,
		int	vtk_event_id,
		QObject *	qobject,
		const char *	signal_or_slot,
		Qt::ConnectionType	type = Qt::AutoConnection
	)		[static]

Method used to connect VTK events to Qt slots (or signals).

This is an alternative to using vtkEventQtSlotConnect. This method gives a cleaner API to connect vtk-events to Qt slots. It manages cleanup correctly i.e. either vtk-object or the qt-object can be deleted and the observers will be cleaned up correctly. One can disconnect the connection made explicitly by vtk_object->RemoveObserver(eventId) where eventId is the returned value.
