Detailed Description

Central entity of GammaRay: The probe is tracking the Qt application under test.

Note: The Probe lifetime is strongly coupled with the QCoreApplication lifetime, if there's no QCoreApplication instance, then there's no probe.

To get a hold of the probe, call Probe::instance()

Member Function Documentation

const QVector<QObject*>& GammaRay::Probe::allQObjects ( ) const

Returns a list of all QObjects we know about.

Note: This getter can be used without the object lock. Do acquire the object lock and check the pointer with isValidObject though, before dereferencing any of the QObject pointers.

void GammaRay::Probe::discoverObject ( QObject * object )

Notify the probe about QObjects your plug-in can discover by using information about the types it can handle.

Only use this if needsObjectDiscovery() returns true to maximise performance.

See also: needsObjectDiscovery()

Since: 2.0

bool GammaRay::Probe::filterObject ( QObject * obj ) const

Determines if the specified QObject belongs to the GammaRay Probe or Window.

These objects should not be tracked or shown to the user, hence must be explictly filtered.

Parameters

obj	is a pointer to a QObject instance.

Returns: true if the specified QObject belongs to the GammaRay Probe or Window; false otherwise.

void GammaRay::Probe::installGlobalEventFilter ( QObject * filter )

Install a global event filter.

Use this rather than installing the filter manually on QCoreApplication, this will filter out GammaRay-internal events and objects already for you.

static Probe* GammaRay::Probe::instance ( )

static

Returns the current instance of the probe.

Note: You must hold the object lock when using the probe's object tracking functionality.

See also: objectLock()

bool GammaRay::Probe::isValidObject ( const QObject * obj ) const

Check whether obj is still valid.

Note: The objectLock must be locked when this is called!

bool GammaRay::Probe::needsObjectDiscovery ( ) const

Returns true if we haven't been able to track all objects from startup, ie.

usually when attaching at runtime. If this is the case, we try to discover QObjects by walking the hierarchy, starting from known singletons, and by watching out for unknown receivers of events. This is far from complete obviously, and plug-ins can help finding more objects, using specific knowledge about the types they are responsible for.

Connect to the objectAdded(QObject*) signal on probe(), and call discoverObject(QObject*) for "your" objects.

Since: 2.5

void GammaRay::Probe::objectCreated ( QObject * obj )

signal

Emitted for newly created QObjects.

Note:

This signal is always emitted from the thread the probe exists in.
The signal is emitted delayed enough for the QObject to have been fully constructed, i.e. on the next event loop re-entry.
The signal is not emitted if the object has been destroyed completely again meanwhile, e.g. for objects that only existed on the stack.
For objects created and destroyed in other threads, this signal might be emitted after its dtor has been entered (in case of short-lived objects), but before it has been finished. At this point the dtor might have already emitted the destroyed() signal and informed smart pointers about the destruction. This means you must not rely on any of this for object lifetime tracking for objects from other threads. Use objectDestroyed() instead.
Do not put obj into a QWeakPointer, even if it's exclusively handled in the same thread as the Probe instance. Qt4 asserts if target code tries to put obj into a QSharedPointer afterwards.
The objectLock() is locked.

SourceLocation GammaRay::Probe::objectCreationSourceLocation ( QObject * object ) const

Returns the source code location object was created at.

Execution::Trace GammaRay::Probe::objectCreationStackTrace ( QObject * object ) const

Returns the entire stack trace for the creation of object.

void GammaRay::Probe::objectDestroyed ( QObject * obj )

signal

Emitted for destroyed objects.

Note:

This signal is emitted from the thread the probe exists in.
The signal is emitted from the end of the QObject dtor, dereferencing obj is no longer safe at this point.
In a multi-threaded application, this signal might reach you way after obj has been destroyed, see isValidObject() for a way to check if the object is still valid before accessing it.
The objectLock() is locked.

QAbstractItemModel* GammaRay::Probe::objectListModel ( ) const

Returns the object list model.

Returns: a pointer to a QAbstractItemModel instance.

QAbstractItemModel* GammaRay::Probe::objectTreeModel ( ) const

Returns the object tree model.

Returns: a pointer to a QAbstractItemModel instance.

void GammaRay::Probe::registerModel	(	const QString &	objectName,
		QAbstractItemModel *	model
	)

Register a model for remote usage.

Parameters

objectName	Unique identifier for the model, typically in reverse domain notation.
model	The model to register.

void GammaRay::Probe::registerSignalSpyCallbackSet ( const SignalSpyCallbackSet & callbacks )

Register a signal spy callback set.

Signal indexes provided as arguments are mapped to method indexes, ie. argument semantics are the same with Qt4 and Qt5.

Since: 2.2

void GammaRay::Probe::selectObject	(	QObject *	object,
		const QPoint &	pos = `QPoint()`
	)

Notify the probe about the user selecting one of "your" objects via in-app interaction.

If you know the exact position the user interacted with, pass that in as pos.

Since: 2.0

void GammaRay::Probe::selectObject	(	void *	object,
		const QString &	typeName
	)

Notify the probe about the user selecting one of "your" objects.

Since: 2.1
