QtopiaDocumentServer Class Reference
[QtBaseModule]

Detailed Description

The QtopiaDocumentServer class provides an instance of the Qt Extended Document Server.

The Qt Extended Document Server provides applications with a mechanism to interact with the Qt Extended Document System without having direct access to the document databases or even the file system. A single instance of the document server runs in a server process, and client applications connect to this server in order to gain access to the functionality provided by the document system API.

The document server runs multiple threads and should be shut down before being destroyed in order to allow the threads to exit cleanly. A shut down can be initiated with the shutdown() slot, and the shutdownComplete() signal will be emitted when this is complete.
