Method Documentation

__init__ ( self )

KConfigBase.AccessMode accessMode ( self )

Abstract method:: This method is abstract and can be overridden but not called directly.

Returns the access mode of the app-config object.

Possible return values are NoAccess (the application-specific config file could not be opened neither read-write nor read-only), ReadOnly (the application-specific config file is opened read-only, but not read-write) and ReadWrite (the application-specific config file is opened read-write).

Returns:: the access mode of the app-config object

deleteGroup	(	self,
		QByteArray	group,
		KConfigBase.WriteConfigFlags	flags=KConfigBase.Normal
	)

Delete aGroup. This marks aGroup as deleted in the config object. This effectively removes any cascaded values from config files earlier in the stack.

deleteGroup	(	self,
		QString	group,
		KConfigBase.WriteConfigFlags	flags=KConfigBase.Normal
	)

Delete aGroup. This marks aGroup as deleted in the config object. This effectively removes any cascaded values from config files earlier in the stack.

deleteGroup	(	self,
		QString	group,
		KConfigBase.WriteConfigFlags	flags=KConfigBase.Normal
	)

Delete aGroup. This marks aGroup as deleted in the config object. This effectively removes any cascaded values from config files earlier in the stack.

deleteGroupImpl	(	self,
		QByteArray	group,
		KConfigBase.WriteConfigFlags	flags=KConfigBase.Normal
	)

Abstract method:: This method is abstract and can be overridden but not called directly.

KConfigGroup group	(	self,
		QByteArray	group
	)

KConfigGroup group	(	self,
		QString	group
	)

KConfigGroup group	(	self,
		QString	group
	)

KConfigGroup groupImpl	(	self,
		QByteArray	b
	)

Abstract method:: This method is abstract and can be overridden but not called directly.

QStringList groupList ( self )

Abstract method:: This method is abstract and can be overridden but not called directly.

Returns a list of groups that are known about.

Returns:: The list of groups.

bool hasGroup	(	self,
		QString	group
	)

Returns true if the specified group is known about.

Parameters:

group

The group to search for.

Returns:: true if the group exists.

bool hasGroup	(	self,
		QString	group
	)

Returns true if the specified group is known about.

Parameters:

group

The group to search for.

Returns:: true if the group exists.

bool hasGroup	(	self,
		QByteArray	group
	)

Returns true if the specified group is known about.

Parameters:

group

The group to search for.

Returns:: true if the group exists.

bool hasGroupImpl	(	self,
		QByteArray	group
	)

Abstract method:: This method is abstract and can be overridden but not called directly.

bool isGroupImmutable	(	self,
		QByteArray	aGroup
	)

Can changes be made to the entries in aGroup?

Parameters:

aGroup

The group to check for immutability.

Returns:: false if the entries in aGroup can be modified.

bool isGroupImmutable	(	self,
		QString	aGroup
	)

Can changes be made to the entries in aGroup?

Parameters:

aGroup

The group to check for immutability.

Returns:: false if the entries in aGroup can be modified.

bool isGroupImmutable	(	self,
		QString	aGroup
	)

Can changes be made to the entries in aGroup?

Parameters:

aGroup

The group to check for immutability.

Returns:: false if the entries in aGroup can be modified.

bool isGroupImmutableImpl	(	self,
		QByteArray	aGroup
	)

Abstract method:: This method is abstract and can be overridden but not called directly.

bool isImmutable ( self )

Abstract method:: This method is abstract and can be overridden but not called directly.

Checks whether this configuration object can be modified.

Returns:: whether changes may be made to this configuration object.

markAsClean ( self )

Abstract method:: This method is abstract and can be overridden but not called directly.

Reset the dirty flags of all entries in the entry map, so the values will not be written to disk on a later call to sync().

sync ( self )

Abstract method:: This method is abstract and can be overridden but not called directly.

Syncs the configuration object that this group belongs to. Unrelated concurrent changes to the same file are merged and thus not overwritten. Note however, that this object is not automatically updated with those changes.
