A single element of a property tree, with a name, value, description, and possibly children.
A Property in a property tree is a piece of data editable or at least displayable in a PropertyTreeWidget. A Property object owns the data item in question. When client code needs to be informed about changes, it can connect to the Property's aboutToChange() and changed() signals. A slot receiving the changed() signal should then ask the Property itself for the new data. Example:
Many subclasses of Property exist with specializations for storing specific types of data. Most of these ultimately use Property::setValue() to store the data in a QVariant.
It is important that knowledge of subclasses not be required to get and set data, so that external code can access and change properties without needing to #include
and link against the code in question. For instance:
Sets the X component of the VectorProperty called "Offset" which is a child of prop
. This works without this code needing to know about the existence of VectorProperty.
To show a Property tree in a PropertyTreeWidget, wrap the root Property in a PropertyTreeModel and call PropertyTreeWidget::setModel() with it.

Constructor.
name | The name of this property. Appears in the left column of a PropertyTreeWidget. |
default_value | The initial value to store in the property. Appears in the right column of a PropertyTreeWidget. |
description | Text describing the property. Is shown in the "help" area of a PropertyTreeWithHelp widget. |
parent | The parent Property, or NULL if there is no parent at this time. |
changed_slot | This should be a Qt slot specification, generated by Qt's SLOT() macro. It should be a slot on the receiver object, or if receiver is not specified, it should be a slot on the parent. |
receiver | If receiver is non-NULL, the changed() signal is connected to the changed_slot on the receiver object. |
All parameters to the constructor are optional and can all be set after construction as well.
If a parent is given, this constructor calls parent->addChild(this)
to add itself to the parent's list of children.
If changed_slot is given and either parent or receiver is also, then the changed() signal is connected via QObject::connect() to the slot described by changed_slot on the parent or the receiver. If both parent and receiver are specified, receiver is the one which gets connected. If receiver is not specified, parent is used instead.

Add a child property.
child | The child property to add. |

Property * rviz::Property::childAt | ( | int | index | ) | const |
Return the child Property with the given index, or NULL if the index is out of bounds or if the child at that index is not a Property.
This just checks the index against 0 and numChildren() and then calls childAtUnchecked(), so it does not need to be overridden in a subclass.
Definition at line 202 of file property.cpp.

Create an editor widget to edit the value of this property.
parent | The QWidget to set as the parent of the returned QWidget. |
option | A QStyleOptionViewItem with parameters of the editor widget, like the rectangle, alignments, etc. |
If this function returns NULL, a QStyledItemDelegate will make an editor widget.
The widget returned by createEditor() must have one Q_PROPERTY
with USER
set to true
. The PropertyTreeDelegate finds it, sets it with the results of PropertyTreeModel::data() after creation, and after editing is finished it reads it and calls PropertyTreeModel::setData() with the contents.

Return data appropriate for the given column (0 or 1) and role for this Property.
column | 0 for left column, 1 for right column. |
role | is a Qt::ItemDataRole |
When overriding to add new data (like a color for example), check the role for the thing you know about, and if it matches, return your data. If it does not match, call the parent class version of this function and return its result.
Return values from this function or overridden versions of it are where background and foreground colors, check-box checked-state values, text, and fonts all come from.

void rviz::Property::setParent | ( | Property * | new_parent | ) |

Prevent or allow users to edit this property from a PropertyTreeWidget.

new_value | The new value to store. |
If the new value is different from the old value, this emits aboutToChange() before changing the value and emits changed() after.
If the value set is an invalid QVariant (QVariant::isValid() returns false), the value will not be editable in a PropertyTreeWidget.

Return the first child Property with the given name, or the FailureProperty if no child has the name.
If no child is found with the given name, an instance of a special Property subclass named FailureProperty is returned and an error message is printed to stdout. FailureProperty::subProp() always returns itself, which means you can safely chain a bunch of subProp() calls together and not have a crash even if one of the sub-properties does not actually exist. For instance:
float width = prop->subProp( "Dimenshons" )->subProp( "Width" )->getValue().toFloat();
If the first property prop
has a "Dimensions" property but not a "Dimenshons" one, width
will end up set to 0 and an error message will be printed, but the program will not crash here.
This is an Order(N) operation in the number of subproperties.

Remove a given child object and return a pointer to it.

Pointer to the PropertyTreeModel managing this property tree.
Any time there is a data value or structural change to the properties in this tree, and model_ is non-NULL, it must be notified of the change. Functions to notify it of changes include PropertyTreeModel::beginInsert(), PropertyTreeModel::endInsert(), PropertyTreeModel::beginRemove(), PropertyTreeModel::endRemove(), and PropertyTreeModel::emitDataChanged(). The Property class already does this for itself, but subclasses must be aware of it if they override functions which modify the structure or contents of the tree.
