QTextCodecPlugin::QTextCodecPlugin(QObject * parent = 0)

Constructs a text codec plugin with the given parent. This is invoked automatically by the Q_EXPORT_PLUGIN2() macro.

QTextCodecPlugin::~QTextCodecPlugin()

Destroys the text codec plugin.

You never have to call this explicitly. Qt destroys a plugin automatically when it is no longer used.

[pure virtual] QList<QByteArray> QTextCodecPlugin::aliases() const

Returns the list of aliases supported by this plugin.

[pure virtual] QTextCodec * QTextCodecPlugin::createForMib(int mib)

Creates a QTextCodec object for the mib enum mib.

See the IANA character-sets encoding file for more information.

See also mibEnums().

[pure virtual] QTextCodec * QTextCodecPlugin::createForName(const QByteArray & name)

Creates a QTextCodec object for the codec called name. The name must come from the list of encodings returned by names(). Encoding names are case sensitive.

Example:

QList<QByteArray> MyCodecPlugin::names() const
{
    return QList<QByteArray> << "IBM01140" << "hp15-tw";
}

QTextCodec *MyCodecPlugin::createForName(const QByteArray &name)
{
    if (name == "IBM01140") {
        return new Ibm01140Codec;
    } else if (name == "hp15-tw") {
        return new Hp15TwCodec;
    }
    return 0;
}

See also names().

[pure virtual] QList<int> QTextCodecPlugin::mibEnums() const

Returns the list of mib enums supported by this plugin.

See also createForMib().

[pure virtual] QList<QByteArray> QTextCodecPlugin::names() const

Returns the list of MIME names supported by this plugin.

If a codec has several names, the extra names are returned by aliases().
