We + * do NOT mean "shortcuts", which are what's handled by most other KDE + * libraries with "accel" in the name. + * + * In the Qt library, the mechanism for adding a keyboard accelerator + * to a menu item is to insert an '&' before the letter. Since we + * usually don't want to disturb the original collection, the idiom in + * these functions is to populate a "target" TQStringList parameter + * with the input collectin's QStrings, plus possibly some added '&' + * characters. + * + * That is the mechanism. Here is the policy, in order of decreasing + * importance (it may seem like these are implementation details, but + * IMHO the policy is an important part of the interface): + * + * 1. If the string already contains an '&' character, skip this + * string, because we consider such strings to be "user-specified" + * accelerators. + * + * 2. No accelerator may clash with a previously defined accelerator, + * including any legal (alphanumeric) user-specified accelerator + * anywhere in the collection + * + * 3. Prefer alphanumerics at the start of the string. + * + * 4. Otherwise, prefer alphanumerics at the start of a word. + * + * 5. Otherwise, choose any alphanumeric character not already + * taken. If no such character is available, give up & skip this + * string. + * + * A typical use of these functions would be to automatically assign + * accelerators to a dynamically populated popup menu. For example, + * the core code was written to automatically set accelerators for the + * "Load View Profile" popup menu for Konqueror. We quickly realized + * that it would be useful to make this facility more generally + * available, so I abstracted it out into a set of templates. + * + * TODO: + * + * + Add sugar functions for more collections. + * + * + Add more Deref classes so that we can access a wider variety of + * collections. + * */ +namespace TDEAccelGen +{ + +// HELPERS + +/** + * Static dereference class, for use as a template parameter. + */ +template <class Iter> +class Deref +{ +public: + static TQString deref(Iter i) { return *i; } +}; + +/** + * Static dereference class that calls the key() method on its + * target; for use as a template parameter. + */ +template <class Iter> +class Deref_Key +{ +public: + static TQString deref(Iter i) { return i.key(); } +}; + +/** + * Helper to determine if the given offset in the string could be a + * legal alphanumeric accelerator. + * + * @param str base string + * @param index offset to check + */ +inline bool +isLegalAccelerator(const TQString& str, uint index) +{ + return index < str.length() + && str[index].isLetterOrNumber(); +} + +/** + * Loads all legal predefined accelerators in the (implicitly + * specified) collection into the given TQMap. + * + * @param begin start iterator + * @param end (last+1) iterator + * @param keys map to store output + */ +template <class Iter, class Deref> +inline void +loadPredefined(Iter begin, Iter end, TQMap<TQChar,bool>& keys) +{ + for (Iter i = begin; i != end; ++i) { + TQString item = Deref::deref(i); + int user_ampersand = item.find(TQChar('&')); + if( user_ampersand >= 0 ) { + // Sanity check.
