\class QAbstractExtensionFactory
\brief The QAbstractExtensionFactory class provides an interface
for extension factories in Qt Designer.
\inmodule QtDesigner
QAbstractExtensionFactory is not intended to be instantiated
directly; use the QExtensionFactory instead.
In \QD, extension factories are used to look up and create named
extensions as they are required. For that reason, when
implementing a custom extension, you must also create a
QExtensionFactory, i.e a class that is able to make an instance of
your extension, and register it using \QD's \l
{QExtensionManager}{extension manager}.
When an extension is required, \QD's \l
{QExtensionManager}{extension manager} will run through all its
registered factories calling QExtensionFactory::createExtension()
for each until the first one that is able to create the requested
extension for the selected object, is found. This factory will
then make an instance of the extension.
\sa QExtensionFactory, QExtensionManager
*/
/*!
\fn QAbstractExtensionFactory::~QAbstractExtensionFactory()
Destroys the extension factory.
*/
/*!
\fn QObject *QAbstractExtensionFactory::extension(QObject *object, const QString &iid) const
Returns the extension specified by \a iid for the given \a object.

\brief The QAbstractExtensionManager class provides an interface
for extension managers in Qt Designer.

Unregister the given \a factory with the extension specified by \a

*/
/*!
\fn T qt_extension(QAbstractExtensionManager* manager, QObject *object)
\relates QExtensionManager
Returns the extension of the given \a object cast to type T if the
object is of type T (or of a subclass); otherwise returns 0. The
extension is retrieved using the given extension \a manager.
\snippet doc/src/snippets/code/tools_designer_src_lib_extension_extension.cpp 0
When implementing a custom widget plugin, a pointer to \QD's
current QDesignerFormEditorInterface object (\c formEditor) is
provided by the QDesignerCustomWidgetInterface::initialize()
function's parameter.
If the widget in the example above doesn't have a defined
QDesignerPropertySheetExtension, \c propertySheet will be a null
pointer.
*/
/*!
\macro Q_DECLARE_EXTENSION_INTERFACE(ExtensionName, Identifier)
\relates QExtensionManager
Associates the given \a Identifier (a string literal) to the
extension class called \a ExtensionName. The \a Identifier must be
unique. For example:
\snippet doc/src/snippets/code/tools_designer_src_lib_extension_extension.cpp 1
Using the company and product names is a good way to ensure
uniqueness of the identifier.
When implementing a custom extension class, you must use
Q_DECLARE_EXTENSION_INTERFACE() to enable usage of the
qt_extension() function. The macro is normally located right after the
class definition for \a ExtensionName, in the associated header
file.
