57.47 Using QDesktopWidget Class

In the next example we will learn about using the QDesktopWidget class
Load "guilib.ring"

New qApp {
win1 = New qWidget()
{
resize(400,400)
btn1 = new qPushbutton(win1)
{
setText("Center")
move(100,100)
resize(100,30)
setClickEvent("pCenter()")
}

Show()
}

exec()
}

Func pCenter
oDesktop = new qDesktopWidget()

oRect = oDesktop.screenGeometry( oDesktop.primaryScreen() )

win1.move((oRect.width()-win1.width()) /2 , (oRect.Height()-win1.Height())/2 )
win1.show()

57.48 Rotate Text

The next example rotate text using a Timer.

Load "guilib.ring"

nAngle = 0

New qapp {
win1 = new qwidget() {
setwindowtitle("Rotate Text")
resize(800,600)
label1 = new qlabel(win1) {
settext("")
myfilter = new qallevents(win1)
myfilter.setMouseButtonPressevent("pClick()")
installeventfilter(myfilter)
}
new qtimer(win1) {
setinterval(50)

57.50 Regular Expressions

The next example uses the Regular Expressions classes.

load "guilib.ring"

new qApp
{
see "Using Regular Expressions" + nl

exp = new qregularexpression() {

setPattern("\d\d \w+")
see pattern() + nl
match = match("33 one",0,0,0)
see match.hasmatch() + nl
match = match("3 one",0,0,0)
see match.hasmatch() + nl
match = match("welcome 11 one",0,0,0)
see match.hasmatch() + nl
matched = match.captured(0)
see matched + nl
}
exp = new qregularexpression() {
setPattern("^(\d\d)/(\d\d)/(\d\d\d\d)$")
see pattern() + nl
match = match("08/12/1985",0,0,0)
see match.hasmatch() + nl
day = match.captured(1)
month = match.captured(2)
year = match.captured(3)
see day + nl + month + nl + year + nl
see "(" + match.capturedStart(1) + "," + match.capturedEnd(1)+ ")" + nl
see "(" + match.capturedStart(2) + "," + match.capturedEnd(2)+ ")" + nl

57.51 Simple Client and Server Example

In this section we will learn about creating simple Client and Server Application
Load "guilib.ring"

new qApp {
oClient = new Client { client() }
oServer = new Server { server() }
exec()
}

Class Client

win1 lineedit1 cOutput=""

oTcpSocket

func client

win1 = new qwidget()

new qpushbutton(win1) {
setgeometry(50,50,100,30)
settext("connect")
setclickevent("oClient.Connect()")
}

lineedit1 = new qtextedit(win1) {

setGeometry(150,50,200,300)
}

win1 {
setwindowtitle("client")
setgeometry(10,100,400,400)
show()

The application during the runtime

57.52 Dynamic Objects

We may create objects in the runtime and add them to windows.

Example:
load "guilib.ring"

oFormDesigner = new FormDesigner { start("oFormDesigner") }

Class FormDesigner

winToolBox winForm

aObjects = []

func start cObjectName

oApp = new qApp

winToolBox = new qWidget()

winToolBox.setWindowTitle("ToolBox")

57.52. Dynamic Objects 660

 Ring Documentation, Release 1.6

winToolBox.move(10,10)
winToolBox.resize(300,600)

btn = new qPushButton(winToolBox)

btn.resize(300,30)
btn.setText("Create Button")
btn.setClickEvent(cObjectName+".pCreateButton()")
btn.show()

winToolBox.show()

winForm = new qWidget() {

move(400,50)
setWindowTitle("Form Designer")
resize(600,600)
show()
}

oApp.exec()

func pCreateButton

nCount = len(aObjects)

aObjects + new MyButton(winForm)

{
nIndex = nCount + 1
setText("Button"+ nIndex)
Move(30*nIndex,30*nIndex)
resize(100,30)
show()
}

Class MyButton from qPushButton

nIndex = 0

57.53 Weight History Application

The next sample help in recording (Date, Time and Weight).

Load "guilib.ring"

MyApp = new qApp

{
$ApplicationObject = "oApp" # To be used when calling events
oApp = new App
exec()
oApp.CloseDatabase()
}

class App

cDir = currentdir() + "/"
