Detailed Description

The QContactModel class provides access to the Contacts data.

User contacts are represented in the contact model as a table, with each row corresponding to a particular contact and each column as on of the fields of the contact. Complete QContact objects can be retrieved using the contact() function which takes either a row, index, or unique identifier.

The contact model is a descendant of QAbstractItemModel, so it is suitable for use with the Qt View classes such as QListView and QTableView, as well as QContactView and any custom views.

The contact model provides functions for sorting and some filtering of items. For filters or sorting that is not provided by the contact model it is recommended that QSortFilterProxyModel is used to wrap the contact model.

A QContactModel instance will also reflect changes made in other instances of QContactModel, both within this application and from other applications. This will result in the modelReset() signal being emitted.

See also QContact, QContactListView, QSortFilterProxyModel, and Pim Library.

Member Function Documentation

QContactModel::QContactModel ( QObject * parent = 0 )

Constructs contact model with the given parent.

QContactModel::~QContactModel ()   [virtual]

Destroys the contact model.

QUniqueId QContactModel::addContact ( const QContact & contact, const QPimSource & source = QPimSource() )

Adds the contact to the model under the specified storage source. If source is null the function will add the contact to the default storage source.

Returns a valid identifier for the contact if the contact was successfully added. Otherwise returns a null identifier.

Note the current identifier of the specified appointment is ignored.

See also phoneSource(), simSource(), and mirrorToSource().

QUniqueId QContactModel::addRecord ( const QByteArray & bytes, const QPimSource & source, const QString & format = QString() )   [virtual]

Adds the PIM record encoded in bytes to the model under the specified storage source. The format of the record in bytes is given by format. An empty format string will cause the record to be read using the data stream operators for the PIM data type of the model. If the specified source is null the function will add the record to the default storage source.

Returns a valid identifier for the record if the record was successfully added. Otherwise returns a null identifier.
