+ \example activeqt/comapp
+ \title COM App Example (ActiveQt)
+
+ The COM App example shows how to use ActiveQt to develop a Qt
+ application that can be automated via COM. Different QObject
+ based classes are exposed as COM objects that communicate with the
+ GUI of the running Qt application. The APIs of those COM objects
+ has been designed to resemble the APIs of standard COM
+ applications; i.e. those from Microsoft Office.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/comapp/main.cpp 2
+ The first class \c Application represents the application object. It
+ exposes read-only properties \c documents and \c id to get access to the
+ list of documents, and an identifier. A read/write property \c visible
+ controls whether the QTabWidget-based user interface of the application
+ should be visible, and a slot \c quit() terminates the application.
+
+ The \e RegisterObject attribute is set to make sure that instances of this
+ class are registered in COM's running object table (ROT) - this allows COM
+ clients to connect to an already instantiated COM object.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/comapp/main.cpp 1
+ The \c DocumentList class stores a list of documents. It provides an API
+ to read the number of documents, to access each document by index and to
+ create a new document. The \c application property returns the root object.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/comapp/main.cpp 0
+
+ The \c Document class finally represents a document in the application.
+ Each document is represented by a page in the application's tab widget, and
+ has a title that is readable and writable through the document's API.
+ The \c application property again returns the root object.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/comapp/main.cpp 3
+ The implementation of the \c Document class creates a new page for the tab
+ widget, and uses the title of that page for the title property. The page
+ is deleted when the document is deleted.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/comapp/main.cpp 4
+ The \c DocumentList implementation is straightforward.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/comapp/main.cpp 5
+ The \c Application class initializes the user interface in the constructor,
+ and shows and hides it in the implementation of \c setVisible(). The object
+ name (accessible through the \c id property) is set to \c "From QAxFactory"
+ to indicate that this COM object has been created by COM. Note that there is
+ no destructor that would delete the QTabWidget - this is instead done in the
+ \c quit() slot, before calling QApplication::quit() through a single-shot-timer,
+ which is necessary ensure that the COM call to the slot is complete.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/comapp/main.cpp 6
+ The classes are exported from the server using the QAxFactory macros. Only
+ \c Application objects can be instantiated from outside - the other APIs can
+ only be used after accessing the respective objects throught the \c Application
+ API.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/comapp/main.cpp 7
+ The main() entry point function creates a QApplication, and just enters the
+ event loop if the application has been started by COM. If the application
+ has been started by the user, then the \c Application object is created and
+ the object name is set to "From Application". Then the COM server is started,
+ and the application object is registered with COM. It is now accessible to
+ COM clients through the client-specific APIs.
+
+ Application exiting is controlled explicitly - if COM started the application,
+ then the client code has to call quit(); if the user started the application,
+ then the application terminates when the last window has been closed.
+
+ Finally, the user interface is made visible, and the event loop is started.
+
+ A simple Visual Basic application could now access this Qt application. In VB,
+ start a new "Standard Exe" project and add a project reference to the comappLib
+ type library. Create a form with a listbox "DocumentList", a static label
+ "DocumentsCount" and a command button "NewDocument". Finally, implement the code
+ for the form like this:
+
+ \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_examples_activeqt_comapp.qdoc 0
+
+ To build the example you must first build the QAxServer library.
+ Then run \c qmake and your make tool in
+ \c{examples\activeqt\comapp}.

+ \title Dot Net Example (ActiveQt)
+
+ The Dot Net example demonstrates how Qt objects can be used in a
+ .NET environment, and how .NET objects can be used in a Qt
+ environment.
+
+ If you need to combine Qt and Win Forms widgets in the same
+ application, you might want to use the higher-level
+ \l{QtWinForms Solution} instead.
+
+ Contents:
+
+ \tableofcontents
+
+ \section1 Qt vs. .NET
+
+ Qt is a C++ library and is compiled into traditional, native
+ binaries that make full use of the performance provided by the
+ runtime environment.
+
+ One of the key concepts of .NET is the idea of "intermediate language
+ code" - the source code is compiled into a bytecode format, and at
+ runtime, that bytecode is executed in a virtual machine - the \e
+ {Common Language Runtime} (CLR).
+
+ Another key concept is that of \e {managed code}. This is essentially
+ intermediate language code written in such a way that the CLR can take
+ care of the memory management, i.e. the CLR will do automatic garbage
+ collection, so the application code does not need to explicitly free
+ the memory for unused objects.
+
+ The MS compilers for C# and VB.NET will only produce managed
+ code. Such programs cannot directly call normal, native functions
+ or classes. \footnote The .NET framework provides Platform Invocation
+ Services - P/Invoke - that enable managed code to call native C (not
+ C++) functions located in DLLs directly. The resulting application
+ then becomes partially unmanaged.\endfootnote
+
+ The MS C++ compiler for .NET on the other hand, can produce both
+ normal and managed code. To write a C++ class that can be compiled
+ into managed code, the developer must flag the class as managed using
+ the \c __gc keyword, and restrict the code to only use the subset of
+ C++ known as "Managed Extensions for C++", or MC++ for short. The
+ advantage is that MC++ code can freely call and use normal C++
+ functions and classes. And it also works the other way around: normal
+ C++ code can call managed functions and use managed classes (e.g. the
+ entire .NET framework class library), including managed functions and
+ classes implemented in C# or VB.NET. This feature of mixing managed
+ and normal C++ code immensely eases the interoperability with .NET,
+ and is by Microsoft referred to as the "It Just Works" (IJW) feature.
+
+ This document demonstrates two different ways of integrating normal
+ C++ code (that uses Qt) with managed .NET code. First, the manual way
+ is presented, which includes using a thin MC++ wrapper class around
+ the normal Qt/C++ class. Then, the automated way is presented, which
+ utilizes the ActiveQt framework as a generic bridge. The advantage of
+ the first method is that it gives the application developer full
+ control, while the second method requires less coding and relieves the
+ developer of dealing with the conversion between managed and normal
+ data objects.
+
+ The impatient reader, who right away wants to see a QPushButton
+ and a custom Qt widget (\l{activeqt/multiple}{QAxWidget2}) run in
+ a .NET GUI application is referred to the example directory of
+ ActiveQt. It contains the result of this walkthrough using both
+ C# and VB.NET, created with Visual Studio .NET (not 2003).
+ Load \c {examples/dotnet/walkthrough/csharp.csproj},
+ \c {examples/dotnet/walkthrough/vb.vbproj}
+ or \c {examples/dotnet/wrapper/wrapper.sln} into the IDE and run
+ the solution.
+
+ \bold{Remark:} You will notice that in the generated code the following line is
+ commented out:
+
+ \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_examples_activeqt_dotnet.qdoc 0
+
+ This line is regenerated without comment whenever you change the
+ dialog, in which case you have to comment it out again to be able
+ to run the project. This is a bug in the original version of
+ Visual Studio.NET, and is fixed in the 2003 edition.
+
+ \section1 Walkthrough: .NET interop with MC++ and IJW
+
+ Normal C++ classes and functions can be used from managed .NET code by
+ providing thin wrapper classes written in MC++. The wrapper class will
+ take care of forwarding the calls to the normal C++ functions or
+ methods, and converting parameter data as necessary. Since the wrapper
+ class is a managed class, it can be used without further ado in any
+ managed .NET application, whether written in C#, VB.NET, MC++ or other
+ managed programming language.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/dotnet/wrapper/lib/worker.h 0
+
+ The Qt class has nothing unusual for Qt users, and as even the Qt
+ specialities like \c Q_PROPERTY, \c slots and \c signals are
+ implemented with straight C++ they don't cause any trouble when
+ compiling this class with any C++ compiler.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/dotnet/wrapper/lib/networker.h 0
+
+ The .NET wrapper class uses keywords that are part of MC++ to indicate
+ that the class is managed/garbage collected (\c {__gc}), and that \c
+ StatusString should be accessible as a property in languages that
+ support this concept (\c {__property}). We also declare an event
+ function \c statusStringChanged(String*) (\c {__event}), the
+ equivalent of the respective signal in the Qt class.
+
+ Before we can start implementing the wrapper class we need a way to
+ convert Qt's datatypes (and potentionally your own) into .NET
+ datatypes, e.g. \c QString objects need to be converted into objects
+ of type \c {String*}.
+
+ When operating on managed objects in normal C++ code, a little extra
+ care must be taken because of the CLR's garbage collection. A normal
+ pointer variable should not \footnote Indeed, the compiler will in
+ many cases disallow it. \endfootnote be used to refer to a managed
+ object. The reason is that the garbage collection can kick in at any
+ time and move the object to another place on the heap, leaving you
+ with an invalid pointer.
+
+ However, two methods are provided that solves this problem easily. The
+ first is to use a \e pinned pointer, i.e. declare the pointer variable
+ with the \c __pin keyword. This guarantees that the object pointed to
+ will not be moved by the garbage collector. It is recommended that
+ this method not be used to keep a references to managed objects for a
+ long time, since it will decrease the efficiency of the garbage
+ collector. The second way is to use the \c gcroot smartpointer
+ template type. This lets you create safe pointers to managed
+ objects. E.g. a variable of type \c gcroot<String> will always point
+ to the String object, even if it has been moved by the garbage
+ collector, and it can be used just like a normal pointer.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/dotnet/wrapper/lib/tools.cpp 0
+ \codeline
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/dotnet/wrapper/lib/tools.cpp 1
+
+ The convertor functions can then be used in the wrapper class
+ implementation to call the functions in the native C++ class.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/dotnet/wrapper/lib/networker.cpp 0
+ \codeline
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/dotnet/wrapper/lib/networker.cpp 1
+
+ The constructor and destructor simply create and destroy the Qt
+ object wrapped using the C++ operators \c new and \c delete.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/dotnet/wrapper/lib/networker.cpp 2
+
+ The netWorker class delegates calls from the .NET code to the native
+ code. Although the transition between those two worlds implies a small
+ performance hit for each function call, and for the type conversion,
+ this should be negligible since we are anyway going to run within the
+ CLR.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/dotnet/wrapper/lib/networker.cpp 3
+
+ The property setter calls the native Qt class before firing the
+ event using the \c __raise keyword.
+
+ This wrapper class can now be used in .NET code, e.g. using C++, C#,
+ Visual Basic or any other programming language available for .NET.

+
+ \section1 Walkthrough: .NET/COM Interop with ActiveQt
+
+ Fortunately .NET provides a generic wrapper for COM objects, the
+ \e {Runtime Callable Wrapper} (RCW). This RCW is a proxy for the
+ COM object and is generated by the CLR when a .NET Framework client
+ activates a COM object. This provides a generic way to reuse COM
+ objects in a .NET Framework project.
+
+ Making a QObject class into a COM object is easily achieved with
+ ActiveQt and demonstrated in the QAxServer examples (e.g., the
+ \l{activeqt/simple}{Simple} example). The walkthrough will use
+ the Qt classes implemented in those examples, so the first thing
+ to do is to make sure that those examples have been built
+ correctly, e.g. by opening the
+ \l{qaxserver-demo-multiple.html}{demonstration pages} in Internet
+ Explorer to verify that the controls are functional.
+
+ \section2 Starting a Project
+
+ Start Visual Studio.NET, and create a new C# project for writing a
+ Windows application. This will present you with an empty form in
+ Visual Studio's dialog editor. You should see the toolbox, which
+ presents you with a number of available controls and objects in
+ different categories. If you right-click on the toolbox it allows
+ you to add new tabs. We will add the tab "Qt".
+
+ \section2 Importing Qt Widgets
+
+ The category only has a pointer tool by default, and we have to add
+ the Qt objects we want to use in our form. Right-click on the empty
+ space, and select "Customize". This opens a dialog that has two
+ tabs, "COM Components" and ".NET Framework Components". We used
+ ActiveQt to wrap QWidgets into COM objects, so we select the "COM
+ Components" page, and look for the classes we want to use, e.g.
+ "QPushButton" and "QAxWidget2".
+
+ When we select those widgets and close the dialog the two widgets
+ will now be available from the toolbox as grey squares with their
+ name next to it \footnote Icons could be added by modifying the
+ way the controls register themselves. \endfootnote.
+
+ \section2 Using Qt Widgets
+
+ We can now add an instance of QAxWidget2 and a QPushButton to
+ the form. Visual Studio will automatically generate the RCW for the
+ object servers. The QAxWidget2 instance takes most of the upper
+ part of the form, with the QPushButton in the lower right corner.
+
+ In the property editor of Visual Studio we can modify the properties
+ of our controls - QPushButton exposes the \c QWidget API and has many
+ properties, while QAxWidget2 has only the Visual Studio standard
+ properties in addition to its own property "lineWidth" in the
+ "Miscellaneous" category. The objects are named "axQPushButton1" and
+ "axQAxWidget21", and since especially the last name is a bit
+ confusing we rename the objects to "resetButton" and "circleWidget".
+
+ We can also change the Qt properties, e.g. set the "text" property
+ of the \c resetButton to "Reset", and the "lineWidth" property of the
+ \c circleWidget to 5. We can also put those objects into the layout
+ system that Visual Studio's dialog editor provides, e.g. by setting
+ the anchors of the \c circleWidget to "Left, Top, Right, Bottom", and
+ the anchors of the \c resetButton to "Bottom, Right".
+
+ Now we can compile and start the project, which will open a user
+ interface with our two Qt widgets. If we can resize the dialog,
+ the widgets will resize appropriately.
+
+ \section2 Handling Qt Signals
+
+ We will now implement event handlers for the widgets. Select the
+ \c circleWidget and select the "Events" page in the property
+ editor. The widget exposes events because the QAxWidget2 class has
+ the "StockEvents" attribute set in its class definition. We implement
+ the event handler \c circleClicked for the \c ClickEvent to increase
+ the line width by one for every click:
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/dotnet/walkthrough/Form1.cs 0
+
+ In general we can implement a default event handler by double
+ clicking on the widget in the form, but the default events for
+ our widgets are right now not defined.
+
+ We will also implement an event handler for the \c clicked signal
+ emitted by QPushButton. Add the event handler \c resetLineWidth to
+ the \c clicked event, and implement the generated function:
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/dotnet/walkthrough/Form1.cs 1
+
+ We reset the property to 1, and also call the \c setFocus() slot
+ to simulate the user style on Windows, where a button grabs focus
+ when you click it (so that you can click it again with the spacebar).
+
+ If we now compile and run the project we can click on the circle
+ widget to increase its line width, and press the reset button to
+ set the line width back to 1.
+
+ \section1 Summary
+
+ Using ActiveQt as a universal interoperability bridge between the
+ .NET world and the native world of Qt is very easy, and makes it
+ often unnecessary to implement a lot of handwritten wrapper classes.
+ Instead, the QAxFactory implementation in the otherwise completely
+ cross-platform Qt project provides the glue that .NET needs to to
+ generate the RCW.
+
+ If this is not sufficient we can implement our own wrapper classes
+ thanks to the C++ extensions provided by Microsoft.
+
+ \section2 Limitations
+
+ All the limitations when using ActiveQt are implied when using this
+ technique to interoperate with .NET, e.g. the datatypes we can use
+ in the APIs can only be those supported by ActiveQt and COM. However,
+ since this includes subclasses of QObject and QWidget we can wrap
+ any of our datatypes into a QObject subclass to make its API
+ available to .NET. This has the positive side effect that the same
+ API is automatically available in
+ \l{http://qtsoftware.com/products/qsa/}{QSA}, the cross platform
+ scripting solution for Qt applications, and to COM clients in general.
+
+ When using the "IJW" method, in priciple the only limitation is the
+ time required to write the wrapper classes and data type conversion
+ functions.
+
+ \section2 Performance Considerations
+
+ Every call from CLR bytecode to native code implies a small
+ performance hit, and necessary type conversions introduce an
+ additional delay with every layer that exists between the two
+ frameworks. Consequently every approach to mix .NET and native
+ code should try to minimize the communication necessary between
+ the different worlds.
+
+ As ActiveQt introduces three layers at once - the RCW, COM and finally
+ ActiveQt itself - the performance penalty when using the generic
+ Qt/ActiveQt/COM/RCW/.NET bridge is larger than when using a
+ hand-crafted IJW-wrapper class. The execution speed however is still
+ sufficient for connecting to and modifying interactive elements in a
+ user interface, and as soon as the benefit of using Qt and C++ to
+ implement and compile performance critical algorithms into native code
+ kicks in, ActiveQt becomes a valid choice for making even non-visual
+ parts of your application accessible to .NET.

+ \title Hierarchy Example (ActiveQt)
+
+ The Hierarchy example is shows how to write an in-process ActiveX
+ control. The control is a QWidget subclass with child widgets
+ that are accessible as sub-types.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/hierarchy/objects.h 0
+ The \c QParentWidget class provides slots to create a widget
+ with a name, and to return a pointer to a named widget. The class
+ declaration uses \c Q_CLASSINFO() to provide the COM identifiers for
+ this class.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/hierarchy/objects.cpp 0
+ The constructor of QParentWidget creates a vertical box layout.
+ New child widgets are automatically added to the layout.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/hierarchy/objects.cpp 1
+ The \c createSubWidget slot creates a new \c QSubWidget with
+ the name provided in the parameter, and sets the label to that
+ name. The widget is also shown explicitly.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/hierarchy/objects.cpp 2
+ The \c subWidget slot uses the \c QObject::child() function and
+ returns the first child of type \c QSubWidget that has the requested
+ name.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/hierarchy/objects.h 1
+ The \c QSubWidget class has a single string-property \c label,
+ and implements the paintEvent to draw the label. The class uses
+ again \c Q_CLASSINFO to provide the COM identifiers, and also sets
+ the \e ToSuperClass attribute to \e QSubWidget, to ensure that only
+ no slots of any superclasses (i.e. QWidget) are exposed.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/hierarchy/objects.cpp 3
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/hierarchy/objects.cpp 4
+ The implementation of the QSubWidget class is self-explanatory.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/hierarchy/main.cpp 0
+ The classes are then exported using a QAxFactory. \c QParentWidget is
+ exported as a full class (which can be created ), while \c QSubWidget is
+ only exported as a type, which can only be created indirectly through
+ APIs of \c QParentWidget.
+
+ To build the example you must first build the QAxServer library.
+ Then run qmake and your make tool in \c examples/activeqt/hierarchy.
+
+ The \l{qaxserver-demo-hierarchy.html}{demonstration} requires
+ your WebBrowser to support ActiveX controls, and scripting to be

+ \title OpenGL Example (ActiveQt)
+
+ The OpenGL example demonstrates the use of the default factory
+ and QAxFactory::isServer(), and the implementation of an
+ additional COM interface using QAxBindable and QAxAggregated.
+ The server executable can run both as an ActiveX server and as a
+ stand-alone application.
+
+ The ActiveX control in this example uses the QGlWidget class in
+ Qt to render an OpenGL scene in an ActiveX. The control exposes a few
+ methods to change the scene.
+
+ The application uses the default factory as provided by the
+ QAXFACTORY_DEFAULT macro to expose the \c GLBox widget as an ActiveX
+ control.
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/opengl/main.cpp 0
+ The implementation of \c main initializes the QApplication object,
+ and uses \c QAxFactory::isServer() to determine whether or not it is
+ appropriate to create and show the application interface.
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/opengl/main.cpp 1
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/opengl/main.cpp 2
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/opengl/main.cpp 3
+
+ The \c GLBox class inherits from both the \l QGLWidget class to be able
+ to render OpenGL, and from \l QAxBindable.
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/opengl/glbox.h 0
+ The class reimplements the \l QAxBindable::createAggregate() function from QAxBindable
+ to return the pointer to a \l QAxAggregated object.
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/opengl/glbox.h 1
+ The rest of the class declaration and the implementation of the OpenGL
+ rendering is identical to the original "box" example.
+
+ The implementation file of the \c GLBox class includes the \c objsafe.h
+ system header, in which the \c IObjectSafety COM interface is defined.
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/opengl/glbox.cpp 0
+ A class \c ObjectSafetyImpl is declared using multiple inheritance
+ to subclass the QAxAggregated class, and to implement the IObjectSafety
+ interface.
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/opengl/glbox.cpp 1
+ The class declares a default constructor, and implements the queryInterface
+ function to support the IObjectSafety interface.
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/opengl/glbox.cpp 2
+ Since every COM interface inherits \c IUnknown the \c QAXAGG_IUNKNOWN macro
+ is used to provide the default implementation of the \c IUnknown interface.
+ The macro is defined to delegate all calls to \c QueryInterface, \c AddRef
+ and \c Release to the interface returned by the controllingUnknown() function.
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/opengl/glbox.cpp 3
+ The implementation of the \c IObjectSafety interface provides the caller
+ with information about supported and enabled safety options, and returns
+ \c S_OK for all calls to indicate that the ActiveX control is safe.
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/opengl/glbox.cpp 4
+ The implementation of the \c createAggregate() function just returns a new
+ \c ObjectSafetyImpl object.
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/opengl/glbox.cpp 5
+
+ To build the example you must first build the QAxServer library.
+ Then run \c qmake and your make tool in \c
+ examples/activeqt/wrapper.
+
+ The \l{qaxserver-demo-opengl.html}{demonstration} requires your
+ WebBrowser to support ActiveX controls, and scripting to be
+ enabled.
+
+ In contrast to the other QAxServer examples Internet Explorer will not
+ open a dialog box to ask the user whether or not the scripting of the GLBox
+ control should be allowed (the exact browser behaviour depends on the security
+ settings in the Internet Options dialog).

+ \example activeqt/qutlook
+ \title Qutlook Example (ActiveQt)
+
+ The Qutlook example demonstrates the use of ActiveQt to automate
+ Outlook. The example makes use of the \l dumpcpp tool to generate
+ a C++ namespace for the type library describing the Outlook
+ Object Model.
+
+ The project file for the example looks like this:
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/qutlook/qutlook.pro 1
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/qutlook/qutlook.pro 2
+
+ The project file uses the \c dumpcpp tool to add an MS Outlook type library to the project.
+ If this fails, then the generated makefile will just print an error message, otherwise
+ the build step will now run the \e dumpcpp tool on the type library, and
+ generate a header and a cpp file (in this case, \c msoutl.h and \c msoutl.cpp) that
+ declares and implement an easy to use API to the Outlook objects.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/qutlook/addressview.h 0
+
+ The AddressView class is a QWidget subclass for the user interface. The QTreeView widget
+ will display the contents of Outlook's Contact folder as provided by the \c{model}.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/qutlook/addressview.cpp 0
+ The AddressBookModel class is a QAbstractListModel subclass that communicates directly with
+ Outlook, using a QHash for caching.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/qutlook/addressview.cpp 1
+ The constructor initializes Outlook. The various signals Outlook provides to notify about
+ contents changes are connected to the \c updateOutlook() slot.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/qutlook/addressview.cpp 2
+ The destructor logs off from the session.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/qutlook/addressview.cpp 3
+ The \c rowCount() implementation returns the number of entries as reported by Outlook. \c columnCount
+ and \c headerData are implemented to show four columns in the tree view.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/qutlook/addressview.cpp 4
+ The \c headerData() implementation returns hardcoded strings.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/qutlook/addressview.cpp 5
+ The \c data() implementation is the core of the model. If the requested data is in the cache the
+ cached value is used, otherwise the data is acquired from Outlook.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/qutlook/addressview.cpp 6
+ The \c changeItem() slot is called when the user changes the current entry using the user interface.
+ The Outlook item is accessed using the Outlook API, and is modified using the property setters.
+ Finally, the item is saved to Outlook, and removed from the cache. Note that the model does not
+ signal the view of the data change, as Outlook will emit a signal on its own.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/qutlook/addressview.cpp 7
+ The \c addItem() slot calls the CreateItem method of Outlook to create a new contact item,
+ sets the properties of the new item to the values entered by the user and saves the item.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/qutlook/addressview.cpp 8
+ The \c update() slot clears the cache, and emits the reset() signal to notify the view about the
+ data change requiring a redraw of the contents.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/qutlook/addressview.cpp 9
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/qutlook/addressview.cpp 10
+ The rest of the file implements the user interface using only Qt APIs, i.e. without communicating
+ with Outlook directly.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/qutlook/main.cpp 0
+
+ The \c main() entry point function finally instantiates the user interface and enters the
+ event loop.
+
+ To build the example you must first build the QAxContainer
+ library. Then run your make tool in \c examples/activeqt/qutlook
+ and run the resulting \c qutlook.exe.

+/*!
+ \example activeqt/webbrowser
+ \title Web Browser Example (ActiveQt)
+
+ The Web Browser example uses the Microsoft Web Browser
+ ActiveX control to implement a fully functional Web Browser
+ application. The user interface has been developed using the Qt
+ Designer integration of the QAxWidget class.
+
+ The code demonstrates how the Qt application can communicate
+ with the embedded ActiveX controls using signals, slots and the
+ dynamicCall() function.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/webbrowser/main.cpp 0
+
+ The \c MainWindow class declares a \c QMainWindow based user interface,
+ using the \c Ui::MainWindow class generated by Qt Designer. A number
+ of slots are implemented to handle events from the various user
+ interface elements, including the \c WebBrowser object, which is a
+ QAxWidget hosting the Microsoft Web Browser control.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/webbrowser/main.cpp 1
+
+ The constructor initializes the user interface, installs a
+ progress bar on the status bar, and uses QAxBase::dynamicCall()
+ to invoke the \c GoHome() method of Internet Explorer to
+ navigate to the user's home page.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/webbrowser/main.cpp 2
+ Different slots handle the signals emitted by the WebBrowser object.
+
+ Connections that don't require any coding, i.e. connecting the \c back
+ action to the \c GoBack() slot, have already been made in Qt Designer.
+
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/webbrowser/main.cpp 3
+ \snippet examples/activeqt/webbrowser/main.cpp 4
+
+ The rest of the implementation is not related to ActiveQt - the actions
+ are handled by different slots, and the entry point function starts the
+ application using standard Qt APIs.
+
+ To build the example you must first build the QAxContainer
+ library. Then run your make tool in \c
+ examples/activeqt/webbrowser and run the resulting \c
+ webbrowser.exe.
