Member Function Documentation
[static] QChar QChar::fromAscii(char c)
This function is obsolete. It is provided to keep old source code working. We strongly advise against using it in new code.
Converts the ASCII character c to it's equivalent QChar. This is mainly useful for non-internationalized software.
An alternative is to use QLatin1Char.
See also fromLatin1() and unicode().
Joining QChar::joining() const
This function is obsolete. It is provided to keep old source code working. We strongly advise against using it in new code.
in 5.3, use joiningType() instead.
Returns information about the joining properties of the character (needed for certain languages such as Arabic).
[static] Joining QChar::joining(uint ucs4)
This function is obsolete. It is provided to keep old source code working. We strongly advise against using it in new code.
This is an overloaded function.
in 5.3, use joiningType() instead.
Returns information about the joining properties of the UCS-4-encoded character specified by ucs4 (needed for certain languages such as Arabic).
char QChar::toAscii() const
This function is obsolete. It is provided to keep old source code working. We strongly advise against using it in new code.
Returns the Latin-1 character value of the QChar, or 0 if the character is not representable.
The main purpose of this function is to preserve ASCII characters used in C strings. This is mainly useful for developers of non-internationalized software.
Note: It is not possible to distinguish a non-Latin 1 character from an ASCII 0 (NUL) character. Prefer to use unicode(), which does not have this ambiguity.
Note: This function does not check whether the character value is inside the valid range of US-ASCII.
