QT之QEvent机制

1.QEvent简介

       QEvent是QT的事件机制。QT的事件机制，肯定是借鉴了Windows的消息机制。Windows把所有的鼠标键盘以及内部事件都当作消息，并放进消息处理机制处理。QT本身，是把各个操作系统的API进行调用。Windows的消息机制，是一个非常简单有效的机制，QT作为借鉴，不为过。

      QEvent是QT的事件机制的基础；QEvent可以被QOject灵活运动，使事件得到接收和响应。

       Qt的主事件循环（QCoreApplication :: exec（））从事件队列中获取本机窗口系统事件，将其转换为QEvents，然后将转换后的事件发送给QObject。

       通常，事件来自底层窗口系统（spontaneous()返回true），但是也可以使用QCoreApplication :: sendEvent（）和QCoreApplication :: postEvent（）手动发送事件（spontaneous()返回false）。

       QObject通過調用其QObject :: event（）函數來接收事件。可以在子類中重新實現該函數，以自定義事件處理並添加其他事件類型。QWidget :: event（）是一個著名的例子。默認情況下，事件被調度到事件處理程序，例如QObject :: timerEvent（）和QWidget :: mouseMoveEvent（）。QObject :: installEventFilter（）允许一個對象攔截發往另一個對象的事件。

       基本的QEvent僅包含事件類型參數和“ accept”標誌。接受標誌設置為accept（），並使用ignore（）清除。它是默認設置的，但是不要依賴它，因為子類可以選擇在其構造函數中清除它。

          QEvent的子類包含描述特定事件的其他參數。

3.QEvetnt使用和捕捉

     QObject的类（和继承类），可以使用QObject::event(), QObject::installEventFilter(),QCoreApplication::sendEvent(), QCoreApplication::postEvent(), 和 QCoreApplication::processEvents()等机制发送事件和和捕捉事件。

     上面2所属事件均可被使用和捕捉。

     提供样例如下：

     头文件：

   

#ifndef MAINWINDOW_H
#define MAINWINDOW_H

#include 
#include 


namespace Ui
{
class MainWindow;
}

class MainWindow : public QMainWindow
{
    Q_OBJECT

public:
    explicit MainWindow(QWidget *parent = 0);
    ~MainWindow();

    virtual bool eventFilter(QObject *object, QEvent *event) override;

private:
    Ui::MainWindow *ui;
};

#endif // MAINWINDOW_H

    源文件：

  

#include 

#include "mainwindow.h"
#include "ui_mainwindow.h"


MainWindow::MainWindow(QWidget *parent) :
    QMainWindow(parent),
    ui(new Ui::MainWindow)
{
    ui->setupUi(this);
    installEventFilter(this);
}

MainWindow::~MainWindow()
{
    delete ui;
}

bool MainWindow::eventFilter(QObject *object, QEvent *event)
{
    switch (event->type())
    {
    case QEvent::KeyPress:
        event->ignore();
        return true;

    default:
        qDebug() << event->type();
        break;
    }

    return QObject::eventFilter(object, event);
}

      可以打印出相关事件。

      发送事件源文件如下：

     

void MainWindow::on_pushButton_clicked()
{
    int key = Qt::Key_Delete;

     QKeyEvent EventPress(QEvent::KeyPress, key, Qt::NoModifier);
     QApplication::sendEvent(ui->textEdit, &EventPress);   //发送键盘按下事件

     QKeyEvent EventRelease(QEvent::KeyRelease, key, Qt::NoModifier);
     QApplication::sendEvent(ui->textEdit, &EventRelease); //发送键盘松开事件
}
