Member Function Documentation

◆ AbsolutePath()

std::string mitk::Preferences::AbsolutePath ( ) const
overridevirtual

Get the absolute path (relative to the root node) of this preferences node.

See also
Name() const
Node()

Implements mitk::IPreferences.

◆ ChildrenNames()

std::vector<std::string> mitk::Preferences::ChildrenNames ( ) const
overridevirtual

Get the names of all direct child preference nodes.

Implements mitk::IPreferences.

◆ Clear()

void mitk::Preferences::Clear ( )
overridevirtual

Remove all properties from this preferences node.

Implements mitk::IPreferences.

◆ Flush()

void mitk::Preferences::Flush ( )
overridevirtual

Write all (!) preferences to disk.

Enforce the persistence of the whole preferences tree.

Note
Preferences are flushed automatically at least on a regular application shutdown.
See also
IPreferencesStorage::Flush()

Implements mitk::IPreferences.

◆ Get()

std::string mitk::Preferences::Get ( const std::string &  key,
const std::string &  def 
) const
overridevirtual

Get a property value as string.

If the property cannot be found, return the provided default value instead.

Parameters
keyName of the property
defDefault value
Returns
Property value or default value

Implements mitk::IPreferences.

◆ GetBool()

bool mitk::Preferences::GetBool ( const std::string &  key,
bool  def 
) const
overridevirtual

Get a property value as bool.

Convenience wrapper of Get() checking if the string value literally equals "true". Returns false otherwise. The comparison is case-insensitive.

Implements mitk::IPreferences.

◆ GetByteArray()

std::vector<std::byte> mitk::Preferences::GetByteArray ( const std::string &  key,
const std::byte *  def,
size_t  size 
) const
overridevirtual

Get a property value as typeless binary representation.

Decode a Base64-encoded property value into a typeless binary representation. Use reinterpret_cast to restore the original type:

// Restore position and size of a widget from preferences
std::vector<std::byte> geometry = preferences->GetByteArray("widget geometry", nullptr, 0);
widget->restoreGeometry(QByteArray(reinterpret_cast<const char*>(geometry.data())), geometry.size());
Parameters
keyName of the property
defRaw pointer to the default binary data or nullptr
sizeSize of the default binary data in bytes or 0 in case of nullptr
Returns
Decoded binary data encapsulated in a vector of bytes. Use std::vector::data() to get a raw pointer to the data.

Implements mitk::IPreferences.

◆ GetChildren()

const std::vector<std::unique_ptr<Preferences> >& mitk::Preferences::GetChildren ( ) const

◆ GetDouble()

double mitk::Preferences::GetDouble ( const std::string &  key,
double  def 
) const
overridevirtual

Get a property value as double.

Convenience wrapper of Get() undertaking string to double conversion.

Exceptions
ExceptionThe property value is not a valid string representation of a double value.

Implements mitk::IPreferences.

◆ GetFloat()

float mitk::Preferences::GetFloat ( const std::string &  key,
float  def 
) const
overridevirtual

Get a property value as float.

Convenience wrapper of Get() undertaking string to float conversion.

Exceptions
ExceptionThe property value is not a valid string representation of a float value.

Implements mitk::IPreferences.

◆ GetInt()

int mitk::Preferences::GetInt ( const std::string &  key,
int  def 
) const
overridevirtual

Get a property value as int.

Convenience wrapper of Get() undertaking string to integer conversion.

Exceptions
ExceptionThe property value is not a valid string representation of an int value.

Implements mitk::IPreferences.

◆ GetProperties()

const Properties& mitk::Preferences::GetProperties ( ) const

◆ Keys()

std::vector<std::string> mitk::Preferences::Keys ( ) const
overridevirtual

Get the names of all properties of this preferences node.

Implements mitk::IPreferences.

◆ Name()

std::string mitk::Preferences::Name ( ) const
overridevirtual

Get the name of this preferences node.

The name can be used in an absolute or relative path separated by forward slashes to address a specific properties node.

See also
AbsolutePath() const
Node()

Implements mitk::IPreferences.

◆ Node()

IPreferences* mitk::Preferences::Node ( const std::string &  path)
overridevirtual

Get (and possibly create) the preferences node specified by the given path.

The path is considered to be absolute if it starts with a forward slash. It is relative to this preferences node otherwise. If any preferences node does not yet exist during traversal, it is created on the fly.

See also
Name() const
AbsolutePath() const

Implements mitk::IPreferences.

◆ operator=() [1/2]

Preferences& mitk::Preferences::operator= ( const Preferences )
delete

◆ operator=() [2/2]

Preferences& mitk::Preferences::operator= ( Preferences &&  )
default

◆ Parent() [1/2]

const IPreferences* mitk::Preferences::Parent ( ) const
overridevirtual
See also
Parent()

Implements mitk::IPreferences.

◆ Parent() [2/2]

IPreferences* mitk::Preferences::Parent ( )
overridevirtual

Get the parent preferences node or nullptr in case of the root node.

Implements mitk::IPreferences.

◆ Put()

void mitk::Preferences::Put ( const std::string &  key,
const std::string &  value 
)
overridevirtual

Set a property value.

Create the property if not yet existent. Otherwise change its value.

Trigger an IPreferences::OnPropertyChanged event if the new value is different or if a new property has been created, except the string value is empty in the latter case.

Implements mitk::IPreferences.

◆ PutBool()

void mitk::Preferences::PutBool ( const std::string &  key,
bool  value 
)
overridevirtual

Set a bool property value.

Convenience wrapper of Put() using the literal strings "true" and "false" to encode the bool value.

Implements mitk::IPreferences.

◆ PutByteArray()

void mitk::Preferences::PutByteArray ( const std::string &  key,
const std::byte *  array,
size_t  size 
)
overridevirtual

Put binary data into a property value.

The Base64 algorithm is used to encode binary data into a valid text representation. Use reinterpret_cast to pass a raw pointer to binary data and specify its total number of bytes:

// Store position and size of a widget in preferences
QByteArray geometry = widget->saveGeometry();
preferences->PutByteArray("widget geometry", reinterpret_cast<const std::byte*>(geometry.data()), geometry.size());
Parameters
keyName of the property
arrayRaw pointer to binary data
sizeSize of the binary data in bytes

Implements mitk::IPreferences.

◆ PutDouble()

void mitk::Preferences::PutDouble ( const std::string &  key,
double  value 
)
overridevirtual

Set a double property value.

Convenience wrapper of Put() undertaking double to string conversion.

Implements mitk::IPreferences.

◆ PutFloat()

void mitk::Preferences::PutFloat ( const std::string &  key,
float  value 
)
overridevirtual

Set a float property value.

Convenience wrapper of Put() undertaking float to string conversion.

Implements mitk::IPreferences.

◆ PutInt()

void mitk::Preferences::PutInt ( const std::string &  key,
int  value 
)
overridevirtual

Set an int property value.

Convenience wrapper of Put() undertaking integer to string conversion.

Implements mitk::IPreferences.

◆ Remove()

void mitk::Preferences::Remove ( const std::string &  key)
overridevirtual

Remove a property from this preferences node.

Parameters
keyName of the property

Implements mitk::IPreferences.

◆ RemoveNode()

void mitk::Preferences::RemoveNode ( )
overridevirtual

Remove this preferences node from its parent node.

Note
Since preferences nodes are owned by their parents, this preferences node is immediately deleted after removal.

Implements mitk::IPreferences.

◆ Root() [1/2]

const IPreferences* mitk::Preferences::Root ( ) const
overridevirtual
See also
Root()

Implements mitk::IPreferences.

◆ Root() [2/2]

IPreferences* mitk::Preferences::Root ( )
