Detailed Description

A generic factory object to create a Part.

 Factory ( QObject *parent = 0, const char *name = 0 )

Factory ()

[virtual]

Part * createPart ( QWidget *parentWidget = 0, const char *widgetName = 0, QObject *parent = 0, const char *name = 0, const char *classname = "KParts::Part", const QStringList &args = QStringList() )

[pure virtual]

reimplement this method in your implementation to create the Part.

The QStringList can be used to pass additional arguments to the part. If the part needs additional arguments, it should take them as name="value" pairs. This is the way additional arguments will get passed to the part from eg. khtml. You can for example emebed the part into HTML by using the following code:


    <object type="my_mimetype" data="url_to_my_data">
        <param name="name1" value="value1">
        <param name="name2" value="value2">
    </object>

This could result in a call to


     createPart( parentWidget, name, parentObject, parentName, "Kparts::Part",
                 QStringList("name1="value1"", "name2="value2") );

After creating thte part, you should emit objectCreated( part ), so that KLibFactory can do proper reference counting, and so that KParts::Factory can insert the part's message calatogue for i18n.

Returns: the newly created part.

Reimplemented from KLibFactory.
