Member Function Documentation

Index::Index(QObject * parent = 0)

Instantiate a new Index with an optional parent, usually by declaring it as a QML item.

Database * Index::getDatabase()

Returns the Database to lookup documents from and store the index in.

QStringList Index::getExpression()

Returns the expression of the index. Both name and expression must be specified.

QString Index::getName()

Returns the name of the index. Both name and expression must be specified.

void Index::setDatabase(Database * database)

Sets the database to lookup documents from and store the index in. The dataInvalidated() signal will be emitted on all changes that could affect the index.

void Index::setExpression(QStringList expression)

Sets the expression used. Both an expression and a name must be specified for an index to be created.

Also starts the process of creating the Index result list, which can then be queried or populate the Query model as is.
