<h2>Detailed Description</h2>
90
<p>The QAxFactory class defines a factory for the creation of COM components.</p>
91
<p>Implement this factory once in your COM server to provide information about the components the server can create. Subclass QAxFactory and implement the pure virtual functions in any implementation file (e.g. main.cpp), and export the factory using the <tt>QAXFACTORY_EXPORT()</tt> macro.</p>
92
<pre> QStringList ActiveQtFactory::featureList() const
95
list << "ActiveX1";
96
list << "ActiveX2";
100
QObject *ActiveQtFactory::createObject(const QString &key)
102
if (key == "ActiveX1")
103
return new ActiveX1(parent);
104
if (key == "ActiveX2")
105
return new ActiveX2(parent);
109
const QMetaObject *ActiveQtFactory::metaObject(const QString &key) const
111
if (key == "ActiveX1")
112
return &ActiveX1::staticMetaObject;
113
if (key == "ActiveX2")
114
return &ActiveX2::staticMetaObject;
117
QUuid ActiveQtFactory::classID(const QString &key) const
119
if (key == "ActiveX1")
120
return "{01234567-89AB-CDEF-0123-456789ABCDEF}";
125
QUuid ActiveQtFactory::interfaceID(const QString &key) const
127
if (key == "ActiveX1")
128
return "{01234567-89AB-CDEF-0123-456789ABCDEF}";
133
QUuid ActiveQtFactory::eventsID(const QString &key) const
135
if (key == "ActiveX1")
136

142
ActiveQtFactory, // factory class
143
"{01234567-89AB-CDEF-0123-456789ABCDEF}", // type library ID
144
"{01234567-89AB-CDEF-0123-456789ABCDEF}" // application ID
146
<p>If you use the <tt>Q_CLASSINFO()</tt> macro to provide the unique identifiers or other attributes for your class you can use the <tt>QAXFACTORY_BEGIN()</tt>, <tt>QAXCLASS()</tt> and <tt>QAXFACTORY_END()</tt> macros to expose one or more classes as COM objects.</p>
147
<pre> QAXFACTORY_BEGIN(
148
"{01234567-89AB-CDEF-0123-456789ABCDEF}", // type library ID
149
"{01234567-89AB-CDEF-0123-456789ABCDEF}" // application ID
153
QAXFACTORY_END()</pre>
154
<p>If your server supports just a single COM object, you can use a default factory implementation through the <tt>QAXFACTORY_DEFAULT()</tt> macro.</p>
155
<pre> #include <qapplication.h>
156
#include <qaxfactory.h>
158
#include "theactivex.h"
161
TheActiveX, // widget class
162
"{01234567-89AB-CDEF-0123-456789ABCDEF}", // class ID
163
"{01234567-89AB-CDEF-0123-456789ABCDEF}", // interface ID
164
"{01234567-89AB-CDEF-0123-456789ABCDEF}", // event interface ID
165
"{01234567-89AB-CDEF-0123-456789ABCDEF}", // type library ID
166
"{01234567-89AB-CDEF-0123-456789ABCDEF}" // application ID
168
<p>Only one QAxFactory implementation may be instantiated and exported by an ActiveX server application. This instance is accessible through the global qAxFactory() function.</p>
169
<p>A factory can also reimplement the <a href="qaxfactory.html#registerClass">registerClass</a>() and <a href="qaxfactory.html#unregisterClass">unregisterClass</a>() functions to set additional flags for an ActiveX control in the registry. To limit the number of methods or properties a widget class exposes from its parent classes reimplement <a href="qaxfactory.html#exposeToSuperClass">exposeToSuperClass</a>().</p>

238
<p>Registers the <a href="qobject.html">QObject</a> <i>object</i> with COM as a running object, and returns true if the registration succeeded, otherwise returns false. The object is unregistered automatically when it is destroyed.</p>
239
<p>This function should only be called if the application has been started by the user (i.e. not by COM to respond to a request), and only for one object, usually the toplevel object of the application's object hierarchy.</p>
240
<p>This function does nothing and returns false if the object's class info for "RegisterObject" is not set to "yes", or if the server is an in-process server.</p>

242
<p>Registers additional values for the class <i>key</i> in the system registry using the <i>settings</i> object. The standard values have already been registed by the framework, but additional values, e.g. implemented categories, can be added in an implementation of this function.</p>

256
<p>Starts the COM server with <i>type</i> and returns true if successful, otherwise returns false.</p>
257
<p>Calling this function if the server is already running (or for an in-process server) does nothing and returns true.</p>
258
<p>The server is started automatically with <i>type</i> set to MultipleUse if the server executable has been started with the <tt>-activex</tt> command line parameter.</p>
259
<h3 class="fn"><a name="stayTopLevel"></a>bool QAxFactory::stayTopLevel ( const <a href="qstring.html">QString</a> & <i>key</i> ) const <tt> [virtual]</tt></h3>
260
<p>Reimplement this function to return true if the ActiveX control <i>key</i> should be a top level window, e.g. a dialog. The default implementation returns false.</p>
261
<h3 class="fn"><a name="stopServer"></a>bool QAxFactory::stopServer () <tt> [static]</tt></h3>
262
<p>Stops the COM server and returns true if successful, otherwise returns false.</p>
263
<p>Calling this function if the server is not running (or for an in-process server) does nothing and returns true.</p>
264
<p>Stopping the server will not invalidate existing objects, but no new objects can be created from the existing server process. Usually COM will start a new server process if additional objects are requested.</p>
265
<p>The server is stopped automatically when the main() function returns.</p>

275
<p>Reimplement this function to return true if <i>licenseKey</i> is a valid license for the class <i>key</i>, or if the current machine is licensed.</p>
276
<p>The default implementation returns true if the class <i>key</i> is not licensed (ie. no <tt>Q_CLASSINFO()</tt> attribute "LicenseKey"), or if <i>licenseKey</i> matches the value of the "LicenseKey" attribute, or if the machine is licensed through a .LIC file with the same filename as this COM server.</p>

<h3 class="fn"><a name="QAXCLASS"></a>QAXCLASS ( <i>Class</i> )</h3>
280
<p>This macro adds a creatable COM class <i>Class</i> to the <a href="qaxfactory.html">QAxFactory</a> declared with the <a href="qaxfactory.html#QAXFACTORY_BEGIN">QAXFACTORY_BEGIN</a>() macro.</p>
281

282
<h3 class="fn"><a name="QAXFACTORY_BEGIN"></a>QAXFACTORY_BEGIN ( <i>IDTypeLib</i>, <i>IDApp</i> )</h3>
283
<p>This macro can be used to export multiple <a href="qobject.html">QObject</a> classes through an implicitly declared <a href="qaxfactory.html">QAxFactory</a> implementation. All <a href="qobject.html">QObject</a> classes have to declare the ClassID, InterfaceID and EventsID (if applicable) through the <a href="qobject.html#Q_CLASSINFO">Q_CLASSINFO</a>() macro. All declarations will be in a type library with the id <i>LibID</i>, and if the server is an executable server then it will have the application id <i>AppID</i>.</p>
284
<p>This macro needs to be used together with the <a href="qaxfactory.html#QAXCLASS">QAXCLASS</a>(), <a href="qaxfactory.html#QAXTYPE">QAXTYPE</a>() and <a href="qaxfactory.html#QAXFACTORY_END">QAXFACTORY_END</a>() macros.</p>

293
<p>This macro can be used to export a single <a href="qobject.html">QObject</a> subclass <i>Class</i> a this COM server through an implicitly declared <a href="qaxfactory.html">QAxFactory</a> implementation.</p>
294
<p>This macro exports the class <i>Class</i> as a COM coclass with the CLSID <i>ClassID</i>. The properties and slots will be declared through a COM interface with the IID <i>InterfaceID</i>, and signals will be declared through a COM event interface with the IID <i>EventID</i>. All declarations will be in a type library with the id <i>LibID</i>, and if the server is an executable server then it will have the application id <i>AppID</i>.</p>
