Detailed Description

Member Function Documentation

QObject * ObjectFactory::newObject	(	QString	className,
		QObject *	parent = 0
	)		[virtual]

Returns:

a QObject-derived instance which can handle the properties of className. If the className is not a known type, it will return an instance of PropsMap, serving as a catch-all. By default, the new object is a child of "this", which means its lifetime expires when this object is destroyed. Overridden versions of this class may return more specific types.

Parameters:

className	- the name of the class to create
parent	the parent of the object.

Implements AbstractFactory.
