In the spirit of this discussion I'd like to point out that I need a way to
create QMimeType objects with all their properties set. Can we add
constructors to QMimeTypeData and QMimeType like this:
QMimeTypeData::QMimeTypeData(
const QString &theType,
const QString &theComment,
const LocaleHash &theLocaleComments,
const QStringList &theAliases,
const QString &theGenericIconName,
const QList< QMimeGlobPattern > &theGlobPatterns,
const QStringList &theSubClassOf,
const QString &thePreferredSuffix,
const QStringList &theSuffixes,
const QList< QMimeMagicRuleMatcher > &theMagicMatchers)
: suffixPattern(QLatin1String("^\\*\\.[\\w+]+$")),
, type(theType)
, comment(theComment)
, localeComments(theLocaleComments)
, aliases(theAliases)
, genericIconName(theGenericIconName)
, globPattterns(theGlobPatterns)
, subClassOf(theSubClassOf)
, preferredSuffix(thePreferredSuffix)
, suffixes(theSuffixes)
, magicMatchers(theMagicMatchers)
{
if (!suffixPattern.isValid())
qWarning("MimeTypeData(): invalid suffixPattern");
}
QMimeType::QMimeType(
const QString &theType,
const QString &theComment,
const LocaleHash &theLocaleComments,
const QStringList &theAliases,
const QString &theGenericIconName,
const QList< QMimeGlobPattern > &theGlobPatterns,
const QStringList &theSubClassOf,
const QString &thePreferredSuffix,
const QStringList &theSuffixes,
const QList< QMimeMagicRuleMatcher > &theMagicMatchers)
: d(new QMimeTypeData(...))
{}
