Member Function Documentation

QTextCodec * QTextCodec::codecForContent ( const char * str, int size )   [static]

This functionality is no longer provided by Qt. This compatibility function always returns a null pointer.

QTextCodec * QTextCodec::codecForIndex ( int i )   [static]

Use availableCodecs() or availableMibs() instead and iterate through the resulting list.

QTextCodec * QTextCodec::codecForName ( const char * hint, int accuracy )   [static]

This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience.

Use the codecForName(const QByteArray &) overload instead.

QByteArray QTextCodec::fromUnicode ( const QString & uc, int & lenInOut ) const

This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience.

const char * QTextCodec::locale ()   [static]

Returns a string representing the current language and sublanguage, e.g. "pt" for Portuguese, or "pt_br" for Portuguese/Brazil.

See also QLocale.

QByteArray QTextCodec::mimeName () const

Use name() instead.

QString QTextCodec::toUnicode ( const QByteArray & a, int len ) const

This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience.

a contains the source characters; len contains the number of characters in a to use.
