## Detailed Description

A KFileItem is a generic class to handle a file, local or remote.

In particular, it makes it easier to handle the result of KIO::listDir (UDSEntry isn't very friendly to use). It includes many file attributes such as mimetype, icon, text, mode, link...

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

KFileItem::KFileItem | ( | const KIO::UDSEntry & | _entry,
|  | const KURL & | _url,
|  | bool | _determineMimeTypeOnDemand = `false`,
|  | bool | _urlIsDirectory = `false`
| ) |

Creates an item representing a file, from a UDSEntry.

This is the preferred constructor when using KIO::listDir().

Parameters:

  | _entry | the KIO entry used to get the file, contains info about it
  | _url | the file url
  | _determineMimeTypeOnDemand | specifies if the mimetype of the given URL should be determined immediately or on demand
  | _urlIsDirectory | specifies if the url is just the directory of the fileitem and the filename from the UDSEntry should be used.

References init(), isLocalFile(), and readUDSEntry().

KFileItem::KFileItem | ( | mode_t | _mode,
|  | mode_t | _permissions,
|  | const KURL & | _url,
|  | bool | _determineMimeTypeOnDemand = `false`
| ) |

Creates an item representing a file, from all the necessary info for it.

Parameters:

  | _mode | the file mode (according to stat() (e.g. S_IFDIR...) Set to KFileItem::Unknown if unknown. For local files, KFileItem will use stat().
  | _permissions | the access permissions If you set both the mode and the permissions, you save a ::stat() for local files. Set to KFileItem::Unknown if you don't know the mode or the permission.
  | _url | the file url
  | _determineMimeTypeOnDemand | specify if the mimetype of the given URL should be determined immediately or on demand

References init().

KFileItem::KFileItem | ( | const KURL & | url,
|  | const QString & | mimeType,
|  | mode_t | mode
| ) |

Creates an item representing a file, for which the mimetype is already known.

Parameters:

  | url | the file url
  | mimeType | the name of the file's mimetype
  | mode | the mode (S_IFDIR...)

References mimetype(), size(), and time().

void KFileItem::setExtraData | ( | const void * | key,
|  | void * | value
| ) | `[virtual]`

This allows to associate some "extra" data to a KFileItem.

As one KFileItem can be used by several objects (often views) which all need to add some data, you have to use a key to reference your extra data within the KFileItem.

That way a KFileItem can hold and provide access to all those views separately.

I.e. a KFileIconView that associates a KFileIconViewItem (an item suitable for use with QIconView) does

     kfileItem->setExtraData( this, iconViewItem );

and can later access the iconViewItem by doing

     KFileIconViewItem *iconViewItem = static_cast<KFileIconViewItem*>( kfileItem->extraData( this ));

This is usually more efficient then having every view associate data to items by using a separate QDict or QMap.

Note: you have to remove and destroy the data you associated yourself when you don't need it anymore!

Parameters:

  | key | the key of the extra data
  | value | the value of the extra data
