+ \example tools/contiguouscache
+ \title Contiguous Cache Example
+
+ The Contiguous Cache example shows how to use QContiguousCache to manage memory usage for
+ very large models. In some environments memory is limited and, even when it
+ isn't, users still dislike an application using excessive memory.
+ Using QContiguousCache to manage a list, rather than loading
+ the entire list into memory, allows the application to limit the amount
+ of memory it uses, regardless of the size of the data set it accesses
+
+ The simplest way to use QContiguousCache is to cache as items are requested. When
+ a view requests an item at row N it is also likely to ask for items at rows near
+ to N.
+
+ \snippet examples/tools/contiguouscache/randomlistmodel.cpp 0
+
+ After getting the row, the class determines if the row is in the bounds
+ of the contiguous cache's current range. It would have been equally valid to
+ simply have the following code instead.
+
+ \code
+ while (row > m_rows.lastIndex())
+ m_rows.append(fetchWord(m_rows.lastIndex()+1);
+ while (row < m_rows.firstIndex())
+ m_rows.prepend(fetchWord(m_rows.firstIndex()-1);
+ \endcode
+
+ However a list will often jump rows if the scroll bar is used directly, resulting in
+ the code above causing every row between the old and new rows to be fetched.
+
+ Using QContiguousCache::lastIndex() and QContiguousCache::firstIndex() allows
+ the example to determine what part of the list the cache is currently caching.
+ These values don't represent the indexes into the cache's own memory, but rather
+ a virtual infinite array that the cache represents.
+
+ By using QContiguousCache::append() and QContiguousCache::prepend() the code ensures
+ that items that may be still on the screen are not lost when the requested row
+ has not moved far from the current cache range. QContiguousCache::insert() can
+ potentially remove more than one item from the cache as QContiguousCache does not
+ allow for gaps. If your cache needs to quickly jump back and forth between
+ rows with significant gaps between them consider using QCache instead.
+
+ And thats it. A perfectly reasonable cache, using minimal memory for a very large
+ list. In this case the accessor for getting the words into the cache
+ generates random information rather than fixed information. This allows you
+ to see how the cache range is kept for a local number of rows when running the
+ example.
+
+ \snippet examples/tools/contiguouscache/randomlistmodel.cpp 1
+
+ It is also worth considering pre-fetching items into the cache outside of the
+ application's paint routine. This can be done either with a separate thread
+ or using a QTimer to incrementally expand the range of the cache prior to
+ rows being requested out of the current cache range.

+ \title Fancy Browser Example
The Fancy Browser example shows how to use jQuery with QtWebKit to
- make a web browser with some special effects and content manipulation.
+ create a web browser with special effects and content
+ manipulation.
\image fancybrowser-example.png
+ The application makes use of QWebFrame::evaluateJavaScript to
+ evaluate the jQuery JavaScript code. A QMainWindow with a QWebView
+ as central widget builds up the browser itself.
+
+ \section1 MainWindow Class Definition
+
+ The \c MainWindow class inherits QMainWindow. It implements a number of
+ slots to perform actions on both the application and on the web content.
+
+ \snippet examples/webkit/fancybrowser/mainwindow.h 1
+
+ We also declare a QString that contains the jQuery, a QWebView
+ that displays the web content, and a QLineEdit that acts as the
+ address bar.
+
+ \section1 MainWindow Class Implementation
+
+ We start by implementing the constructor.
+
+ \snippet examples/webkit/fancybrowser/mainwindow.cpp 1
+
+ The first part of the constructor sets the value of \c progress to
+ 0. This value will be used later in the code to visualize the
+ loading of a webpage.
+
+ Next, the jQuery library is loaded using a QFile and reading the file
+ content. The jQuery library is a JavaScript library that provides different
+ functions for manipulating HTML.
+
+ \snippet examples/webkit/fancybrowser/mainwindow.cpp 2
+
+ The second part of the constructor creates a QWebView and connects
+ slots to the views signals. Furthermore, we create a QLineEdit as
+ the browsers address bar. We then set the horizontal QSizePolicy
+ to fill the available area in the browser at all times. We add the
+ QLineEdit to a QToolbar together with a set of navigation actions
+ from QWebView::pageAction.
+
+ \snippet examples/webkit/fancybrowser/mainwindow.cpp 3
+
+ The third and last part of the constructor implements two QMenus and assigns
+ a set of actions to them. The last line sets the QWebView as the central
+ widget in the QMainWindow.
+
+ \snippet examples/webkit/fancybrowser/mainwindow.cpp 4
+
+ When the page is loaded, \c adjustLocation() updates the address
+ bar; \c adjustLocation() is triggered by the \c loadFinished()
+ signal in QWebView. In \c changeLocation() we create a QUrl
+ object, and then use it to load the page into the QWebView. When
+ the new web page has finished loading, \c adjustLocation() will be
+ run once more to update the address bar.
+
+ \snippet examples/webkit/fancybrowser/mainwindow.cpp 5
+
+ \c adjustTitle() sets the window title and displays the loading
+ progress. This slot is triggered by the \c titleChanged() signal
+ in QWebView.
+
+ \snippet examples/webkit/fancybrowser/mainwindow.cpp 6
+
+ When a web page has loaded, \c finishLoading() is triggered by the
+ \c loadFinished() signal in QWebView. \c finishLoading() then updates the
+ progress in the title bar and calls \c evaluateJavaScript() to evaluate the
+ jQuery library. This evaluates the JavaScript against the current web page.
+ What that means is that the JavaScript can be viewed as part of the content
+ loaded into the QWebView, and therefore needs to be loaded every time a new
+ page is loaded. Once the jQuery library is loaded, we can start executing
+ the different jQuery functions in the browser.
+
+ \snippet examples/webkit/fancybrowser/mainwindow.cpp 7
+
+ The first jQuery-based function, \c highlightAllLinks(), is designed to
+ highlight all links in the current webpage. The JavaScript code looks
+ for web elements named \e {a}, which is the tag for a hyperlink.
+ For each such element, the background color is set to be yellow by
+ using CSS.
+
+ \snippet examples/webkit/fancybrowser/mainwindow.cpp 8
+
+ The \c rotateImages() function rotates the images on the current
+ web page. Webkit supports CSS transforms and this JavaScript code
+ looks up all \e {img} elements and rotates the images 180 degrees
+ and then back again.
+
+ \snippet examples/webkit/fancybrowser/mainwindow.cpp 9
+
+ The remaining four methods remove different elements from the current web
+ page. \c removeGifImages() removes all Gif images on the page by looking up
+ the \e {src} attribute of all the elements on the web page. Any element with
+ a \e {gif} file as its source is removed. \c removeInlineFrames() removes all
+ \e {iframe} or inline elements. \c removeObjectElements() removes all
+ \e {object} elements, and \c removeEmbeddedElements() removes any elements
+ such as plugins embedded on the page using the \e {embed} tag.
+
