List of all members.

## Public Slots
void | clear ()
| Clears the entire actionCollection, deleting all actions.
## Signals
void | inserted (KAction *)
void | removed (KAction *)
void | actionHighlighted (KAction *action)
void | actionHighlighted (KAction *action, bool highlight)

## Public Member Functions
| KActionCollection (QWidget *parent, const char *name=0, KInstance *instance=0)
| KActionCollection (QWidget *watch, QObject *parent, const char *name=0, KInstance *instance=0)
| Use this constructor if you want the collection's actions to restrict their accelerator keys to `watch` rather than the `parent`.
| KActionCollection (const KActionCollection &copy)
virtual void | setWidget (QWidget *widget)
| This sets the widget to which the keyboard shortcuts should be attached.
void | setAutoConnectShortcuts (bool)
| This indicates whether new actions which are created in this collection should have their keyboard shortcuts automatically connected on construction.
bool | isAutoConnectShortcuts ()
bool | addDocCollection (KActionCollection *pDoc)
| Doc/View model.
virtual KAccel * | accel ()
| This class or method is obsolete, it is provided for compatibility only. Deprecated because of ambiguous name.
virtual const KAccel * | accel () const
KAccel * | kaccel ()
| Returns the KAccel object of the most recently set widget.

## Detailed Description

A managed set of KAction objects.

Definition at line 1761 of file kaction.h.

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

KActionCollection::KActionCollection | ( | QWidget * | watch,
|  | QObject * | parent,
|  | const char * | name = 0,
|  | KInstance * | instance = 0
| ) |

| Use this constructor if you want the collection's actions to restrict their accelerator keys to `watch` rather than the `parent`. If you don't require shortcuts, you can pass a null to the `watch` parameter. Definition at line 3103 of file kaction.cpp. References KStdAccel::name(), and setWidget().

## Member Function Documentation

void KActionCollection::setWidget | ( | QWidget * | widget | ) | `[virtual]`

| This sets the widget to which the keyboard shortcuts should be attached. You only need to call this if a null pointer was passed in the constructor. Definition at line 3153 of file kaction.cpp. Referenced by KActionCollection(), and KEditToolbarWidget::KEditToolbarWidget().

void KActionCollection::setAutoConnectShortcuts | ( | bool |  | ) |

| This indicates whether new actions which are created in this collection should have their keyboard shortcuts automatically connected on construction. Set to 'false' if you will be loading XML-based settings. This is automatically done by KParts. The default is 'true'. Definition at line 3168 of file kaction.cpp.

bool KActionCollection::addDocCollection | ( | KActionCollection * | pDoc | ) |

| Doc/View model. This lets you add the action collection of a document to a view's action collection. Definition at line 3178 of file kaction.cpp.

KAccel * KActionCollection::accel | ( |  | ) | `[virtual]`

| This class or method is obsolete, it is provided for compatibility only. Deprecated because of ambiguous name. Use kaccel() Definition at line 3367 of file kaction.cpp. References kaccel().

KAccel * KActionCollection::kaccel | ( |  | ) |

| Returns the KAccel object of the most recently set widget. Definition at line 3283 of file kaction.cpp. Referenced by accel().

uint KActionCollection::count | ( |  | ) | const`[virtual]`

| Returns the KAccel object associated with widget #. Definition at line 3416 of file kaction.cpp.

bool KActionCollection::readShortcutSettings | ( | const QString & | sConfigGroup = QString::null,
|  | KConfigBase * | pConfig = 0
| ) |

| Used for reading shortcut configuration from a non-XML rc file. Definition at line 3406 of file kaction.cpp.

bool KActionCollection::writeShortcutSettings | ( | const QString & | sConfigGroup = QString::null,
|  | KConfigBase * | pConfig = 0
| ) | const

| Used for writing shortcut configuration to a non-XML rc file. Definition at line 3411 of file kaction.cpp.

void KActionCollection::setXMLFile | ( | const QString & |  | ) |

| Use this to tell the KActionCollection what rc file its configuration is stored in. Definition at line 3471 of file kaction.cpp. Referenced by KXMLGUIClient::setXMLFile().

void KActionCollection::clear | ( |  | ) | `[slot]`

| Clears the entire actionCollection, deleting all actions. See also: #remove Definition at line 3366 of file kaction.cpp.
