<hr><a name="details"></a><h2>Detailed Description</h2>
<p> This class is defined in the <b>TQt <a href="activeqt.html#ActiveTQt">ActiveTQt</a> Extension</b>, which can be found in the <tt>qt/extensions</tt> directory. It is not included in the main TQt API.
<p>

The TQAxBindable class provides an interface between a
<a href="qwidget.html">TQWidget</a> and an ActiveX client.

<p> 

<p> The functions provided by this class allow an ActiveX control to
communicate property changes to a client application. Inherit
your control class from both TQWidget (directly or indirectly) and
this class to get access to this class's functions. The <a href="moc.html">meta object compiler</a> requires you to inherit from
TQWidget <em>first</em>.
<p> <pre>
    class MyActiveX : public <a href="qwidget.html">TQWidget</a>, public TQAxBindable
    {
        <a href="metaobjects.html#Q_OBJECT">Q_OBJECT</a>
        Q_PROPERTY( int value READ value WRITE setValue )
    public:
        MyActiveX( <a href="qwidget.html">TQWidget</a> *parent = 0, const char *name = 0 );
        ...

        int value() const;
        void setValue( int );
    };
    </pre>
 
<p> When implementing the property write function, use
<a href="#requestPropertyChange">requestPropertyChange</a>() to get permission from the ActiveX client
application to change this property. When the property changes,
call <a href="#propertyChanged">propertyChanged</a>() to notify the ActiveX client application
about the change. If a fatal error occurs in the control, use the
static <a href="#reportError">reportError</a>() function to notify the client.
<p> Use the interface returned by <a href="#clientSite">clientSite</a>() to call the ActiveX
client. To implement additional COM interfaces in your ActiveX
control, reimplement <a href="#createAggregate">createAggregate</a>() to return a new object of a
<a href="qaxaggregated.html">TQAxAggregated</a> subclass.

<hr><h2>Member Function Documentation</h2>
<h3 class=fn><a name="TQAxBindable"></a>TQAxBindable::TQAxBindable ()
</h3>
Constructs an empty TQAxBindable object.

<h3 class=fn><a name="~TQAxBindable"></a>TQAxBindable::~TQAxBindable ()<tt> [virtual]</tt>
</h3>
Destroys the TQAxBindable object.

<h3 class=fn>IUnknown * <a name="clientSite"></a>TQAxBindable::clientSite () const<tt> [protected]</tt>
</h3>
Returns a pointer to the client site interface for this ActiveX object,
or null if no client site has been set.
<p> Call QueryInterface() on the returned interface to get the interface you
want to call.

<h3 class=fn><a href="qaxaggregated.html">TQAxAggregated</a>&nbsp;* <a name="createAggregate"></a>TQAxBindable::createAggregate ()<tt> [virtual]</tt>
</h3>
Reimplement this function when you want to implement additional
COM interfaces in the ActiveX control, or when you want to provide
alternative implementations of COM interfaces. Return a new object
of a <a href="qaxaggregated.html">TQAxAggregated</a> subclass.
<p> The default implementation returns the null pointer.

<h3 class=fn>void <a name="propertyChanged"></a>TQAxBindable::propertyChanged ( const&nbsp;char&nbsp;*&nbsp;property )<tt> [protected]</tt>
</h3>
Call this function to notify the client that is hosting this
ActiveX control that the property <em>property</em> has been changed.
<p> This function is usually called at the end of the property's write
function.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#requestPropertyChange">requestPropertyChange</a>().

<h3 class=fn>void <a name="reportError"></a>TQAxBindable::reportError ( int&nbsp;code, const&nbsp;<a href="qstring.html">TQString</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;src, const&nbsp;<a href="qstring.html">TQString</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;desc, const&nbsp;<a href="qstring.html">TQString</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;context = TQString::null )<tt> [static]</tt>
</h3>

<p> Reports an error to the client application. <em>code</em> is a
control-defined error code. <em>desc</em> is a human-readable description
of the error intended for the application user. <em>src</em> is the name
of the source for the error, typically the ActiveX server name. <em>context</em> can be the location of a help file with more information
about the error. If <em>context</em> ends with a number in brackets,
e.g. [12], this number will be interpreted as the context ID in
the help file.

<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="requestPropertyChange"></a>TQAxBindable::requestPropertyChange ( const&nbsp;char&nbsp;*&nbsp;property )<tt> [protected]</tt>
</h3>
Call this function to request permission to change the property
<em>property</em> from the client that is hosting this ActiveX control.
Returns TRUE if the client allows the change; otherwise returns
FALSE.
<p> This function is usually called first in the write function for <em>property</em>, and writing is abandoned if the function returns FALSE.
<p> <pre>
    void MyActiveTQt::setText( const <a href="qstring.html">TQString</a> &amp;text )
    {
        if ( !requestPropertyChange( "text" ) )
            return;

        // update property

        <a href="#propertyChanged">propertyChanged</a>( "text" );
    }
    </pre>
 
<p> <p>See also <a href="#propertyChanged">propertyChanged</a>().
