## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

MetaInfoJob::MetaInfoJob | ( | const KFileItemList & | items,
|  | bool | deleteItems = false
| ) |

Constructor.

Parameters:

  items | A list of KFileItems to get the metainfo for
  deleteItems | If true, the finished KFileItems are deleted

Definition at line 44 of file metainfojob.cpp.

References KIO::Job::emitResult(), and QTimer::singleShot().

## Member Function Documentation

void MetaInfoJob::removeItem | ( | const KFileItem * | item | ) |

Removes an item from metainfo extraction.

Parameters:

  item | the item that should be removed from the queue

Definition at line 80 of file metainfojob.cpp.

References QPtrList< Job >::first(), and QPtrList< Job >::removeFirst().

QStringList MetaInfoJob::availablePlugins | ( |  | ) | `[static]`

Returns:
  a list of all available metainfo plugins. The list contains the basenames of the plugins' .desktop files (no path, no .desktop).

Definition at line 157 of file metainfojob.cpp.

References QValueList::begin(), QValueList::end(), KTrader::OfferList, KTrader::query(), KIO::Job::result(), and KTrader::self().

QStringList MetaInfoJob::supportedMimeTypes | ( |  | ) | `[static]`

Returns:
  a list of all supported MIME types. The list can contain entries like text/ * (without the space).

Definition at line 166 of file metainfojob.cpp.

References QValueList::begin(), QValueList::end(), KTrader::OfferList, KTrader::query(), KIO::Job::result(), and KTrader::self().

void KIO::MetaInfoJob::gotMetaInfo | ( | const KFileItem * | item | ) | `[signal]`

| Emitted when the meta info for `item` has been successfully retrieved.

void KIO::MetaInfoJob::failed | ( | const KFileItem * | item | ) | `[signal]`

| Emitted when metainfo for `item` could not be extracted, either because a plugin for its MIME type does not exist, or because something went wrong.

void MetaInfoJob::slotResult | ( | KIO::Job * | job | ) | `[protected, virtual, slot]`

| Called whenever a subjob finishes. Default implementation checks for errors and propagates to parent job, then calls removeSubjob. Override if you don't want subjobs errors to be propagated. Reimplemented from KIO::Job. Definition at line 116 of file metainfojob.cpp. References QPtrList< Job >::isEmpty(), and QPtrList< Job >::remove().
