\class QFlag
\brief The QFlag class is a helper data type for QFlags.
It is equivalent to a plain \c int, except with respect to
function overloading and type conversions. You should never need
to use this class in your applications.

/*!
\class QFlags
\brief The QFlags class provides a type-safe way of storing
OR-combinations of enum values.
\ingroup tools
The QFlags<Enum> class is a template class, where Enum is an enum
type. QFlags is used throughout Qt for storing combinations of
enum values.
The traditional C++ approach for storing OR-combinations of enum
values is to use an \c int or \c uint variable. The inconvenience
with this approach is that there's no type checking at all; any
enum value can be OR'd with any other enum value and passed on to
a function that takes an \c int or \c uint.
Qt uses QFlags to provide type safety. For example, the
Qt::Alignment type is simply a typedef for
QFlags<Qt::AlignmentFlag>. QLabel::setAlignment() takes a
Qt::Alignment parameter, which means that any combination of
Qt::AlignmentFlag values,or 0, is legal:
\snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_corelib_global_qglobal.cpp 0
If you try to pass a value from another enum or just a plain
integer other than 0, the compiler will report an error. If you
need to cast integer values to flags in a untyped fashion, you can
use the explicit QFlags constructor as cast operator.
If you want to use QFlags for your own enum types, use
the Q_DECLARE_FLAGS() and Q_DECLARE_OPERATORS_FOR_FLAGS().
Example:
\snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_corelib_global_qglobal.cpp 1
You can then use the \c MyClass::Options type to store
combinations of \c MyClass::Option values.
\section1 Flags and the Meta-Object System
The Q_DECLARE_FLAGS() macro does not expose the flags to the meta-object
system, so they cannot be used by Qt Script or edited in Qt Designer.
To make the flags available for these purposes, the Q_FLAGS() macro must
be used:
\snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_corelib_global_qglobal.cpp meta-object flags
\section1 Naming Convention
A sensible naming convention for enum types and associated QFlags
types is to give a singular name to the enum type (e.g., \c
Option) and a plural name to the QFlags type (e.g., \c Options).
When a singular name is desired for the QFlags type (e.g., \c
Alignment), you can use \c Flag as the suffix for the enum type
(e.g., \c AlignmentFlag).

The QFlag type is a helper type. By using it here instead of \c

cast to a QFlags, whereas untyped enum values (i.e., \c int
values) can.

\macro Q_DISABLE_COPY(Class)
\relates QObject
Disables the use of copy constructors and assignment operators
for the given \a Class.
Instances of subclasses of QObject should not be thought of as
values that can be copied or assigned, but as unique identities.
This means that when you create your own subclass of QObject
(director or indirect), you should \e not give it a copy constructor
or an assignment operator. However, it may not enough to simply
omit them from your class, because, if you mistakenly write some code
that requires a copy constructor or an assignment operator (it's easy
to do), your compiler will thoughtfully create it for you. You must
do more.
The curious user will have seen that the Qt classes derived
from QObject typically include this macro in a private section:
\snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_corelib_global_qglobal.cpp 43
It declares a copy constructor and an assignment operator in the
private section, so that if you use them by mistake, the compiler
will report an error.
\snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_corelib_global_qglobal.cpp 44
But even this might not catch absolutely every case. You might be
tempted to do something like this:
\snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_corelib_global_qglobal.cpp 45
First of all, don't do that. Most compilers will generate code that
uses the copy constructor, so the privacy violation error will be
reported, but your C++ compiler is not required to generate code for
this statement in a specific way. It could generate code using
\e{neither} the copy constructor \e{nor} the assignment operator we
made private. In that case, no error would be reported, but your
application would probably crash when you called a member function
of \c{w}.

\headerfile <QtGlobal>
\title Global Qt Declarations
\ingroup funclists
\brief The <QtGlobal> header file includes the fundamental global
declarations. It is included by most other Qt header files.
The global declarations include \l{types}, \l{functions} and
\l{macros}.
The type definitions are partly convenience definitions for basic
types (some of which guarantee certain bit-sizes on all platforms
supported by Qt), partly types related to Qt message handling. The
functions are related to generating messages, Qt version handling
and comparing and adjusting object values. And finally, some of
the declared macros enable programmers to add compiler or platform
specific code to their applications, while others are convenience
macros for larger operations.
\section1 Types
The header file declares several type definitions that guarantee a
specified bit-size on all platforms supported by Qt for various
basic types, for example \l qint8 which is a signed char
guaranteed to be 8-bit on all platforms supported by Qt. The
header file also declares the \l qlonglong type definition for \c
{long long int } (\c __int64 on Windows).
Several convenience type definitions are declared: \l qreal for \c
double, \l uchar for \c unsigned char, \l uint for \c unsigned
int, \l ulong for \c unsigned long and \l ushort for \c unsigned
short.
Finally, the QtMsgType definition identifies the various messages
that can be generated and sent to a Qt message handler;
QtMsgHandler is a type definition for a pointer to a function with
the signature \c {void myMsgHandler(QtMsgType, const char *)}.
\section1 Functions
The <QtGlobal> header file contains several functions comparing
and adjusting an object's value. These functions take a template
type as argument: You can retrieve the absolute value of an object
using the qAbs() function, and you can bound a given object's
value by given minimum and maximum values using the qBound()
function. You can retrieve the minimum and maximum of two given
objects using qMin() and qMax() respectively. All these functions
return a corresponding template type; the template types can be
replaced by any other type.
Example:
\snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_corelib_global_qglobal.cpp 3
<QtGlobal> also contains functions that generate messages from the
given string argument: qCritical(), qDebug(), qFatal() and
qWarning(). These functions call the message handler with the
given message.
Example:
\snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_corelib_global_qglobal.cpp 4
The remaining functions are qRound() and qRound64(), which both
accept a \l qreal value as their argument returning the value
rounded up to the nearest integer and 64-bit integer respectively,
the qInstallMsgHandler() function which installs the given
QtMsgHandler, and the qVersion() function which returns the
version number of Qt at run-time as a string.
\section1 Macros
The <QtGlobal> header file provides a range of macros (Q_CC_*)
that are defined if the application is compiled using the
specified platforms. For example, the Q_CC_SUN macro is defined if
the application is compiled using Forte Developer, or Sun Studio
C++. The header file also declares a range of macros (Q_OS_*)
that are defined for the specified platforms. For example,
Q_OS_WIN32 which is defined for Microsoft Windows.
The purpose of these macros is to enable programmers to add
compiler or platform specific code to their application.
The remaining macros are convenience macros for larger operations:
The QT_TRANSLATE_NOOP() and QT_TR_NOOP() macros provide the
possibility of marking text for dynamic translation,
i.e. translation without changing the stored source text. The
Q_ASSERT() and Q_ASSERT_X() enables warning messages of various
level of refinement. The Q_FOREACH() and foreach() macros
implement Qt's foreach loop.
The Q_INT64_C() and Q_UINT64_C() macros wrap signed and unsigned
64-bit integer literals in a platform-independent way. The
Q_CHECK_PTR() macro prints a warning containing the source code's
file name and line number, saying that the program ran out of
memory, if the pointer is 0. The qPrintable() macro represent an
easy way of printing text.
Finally, the QT_POINTER_SIZE macro expands to the size of a
pointer in bytes, and the QT_VERSION and QT_VERSION_STR macros
expand to a numeric value or a string, respectively, specifying
Qt's version number, i.e the version the application is compiled
against.

\fn QtMsgHandler qInstallMsgHandler(QtMsgHandler handler)
\relates <QtGlobal>
Installs a Qt message \a handler which has been defined
previously. Returns a pointer to the previous message handler
(which may be 0).
The message handler is a function that prints out debug messages,
warnings, critical and fatal error messages. The Qt library (debug
mode) contains hundreds of warning messages that are printed
when internal errors (usually invalid function arguments)
occur. Qt built in release mode also contains such warnings unless
QT_NO_WARNING_OUTPUT and/or QT_NO_DEBUG_OUTPUT have been set during
compilation. If you implement your own message handler, you get total
control of these messages.
The default message handler prints the message to the standard
output under X11 or to the debugger under Windows. If it is a
fatal message, the application aborts immediately.
Only one message handler can be defined, since this is usually
done on an application-wide basis to control debug output.
To restore the message handler, call \c qInstallMsgHandler(0).

\macro Q_BYTE_ORDER
\relates <QtGlobal>
This macro can be used to determine the byte order your system
uses for storing data in memory. i.e., whether your system is
little-endian or big-endian. It is set by Qt to one of the macros
Q_LITTLE_ENDIAN or Q_BIG_ENDIAN. You normally won't need to worry
about endian-ness, but you might, for example if you need to know
which byte of an integer or UTF-16 character is stored in the
lowest address. Endian-ness is important in networking, where
computers with different values for Q_BYTE_ORDER must pass data
back and forth.
Use this macro as in the following examples.

appear in the file-level scope and be followed by \c QT_END_NAMESPACE
at the same logical level with respect to preprocessor conditionals

As a rule of thumb, \c QT_BEGIN_NAMESPACE should appear in all Qt header
and Qt source files after the last \c{#include} line and before the first
declaration. In Qt headers using \c QT_BEGIN_HEADER, \c QT_BEGIN_NAMESPACE
follows \c QT_BEGIN_HEADER immediately.
If that rule can't be followed because, e.g., \c{#include} lines and
declarations are wildly mixed, place \c QT_BEGIN_NAMESPACE before
the first declaration and wrap the \c{#include} lines in
\c QT_BEGIN_INCLUDE_NAMESPACE and \c QT_END_INCLUDE_NAMESPACE.
When using the \c QT_NAMESPACE feature in user code
(e.g., when building plugins statically linked to Qt) where
the user code is not intended to go into the \c QT_NAMESPACE
namespace, all forward declarations of Qt classes need to
be wrapped in \c QT_BEGIN_NAMESPACE and \c QT_END_NAMESPACE.
After that, a \c QT_USE_NAMESPACE should follow.
No further changes should be needed.
