64.48 Inheritance from GUI Classes
Example :
Load "guilib.ring"
New MyWindow()
new qApp { exec() }
class mywindow from qwidget
Func init
super.init()
setwindowtitle("First Window")
setgeometry(100,100,400,400)
setstylesheet("background-color: purple;")
settooltip("my first window!")
show()

64.49 Using QDesktopWidget Class
In the next example we will learn about using the QDesktopWidget class
Load "guilib.ring"
New qApp {
win1 = New qWidget()
{
resize(400,400)
btn1 = new qPushbutton(win1)
{
setText("Center")
move(100,100)
resize(100,30)
setClickEvent("pCenter()")
}
Show()
}
exec()
}
Func pCenter
oDesktop = new qDesktopWidget()
64.49. Using QDesktopWidget Class 733

6. Ring Documentation, Release 1.9
oRect = oDesktop.screenGeometry( oDesktop.primaryScreen() )
win1.move((oRect.width()-win1.width()) /2 , (oRect.Height()-win1.Height())/2 )
win1.show()

64.50 Rotate Text
The next example rotate text using a Timer.
Load "guilib.ring"
nAngle = 0
New qapp {
win1 = new qwidget() {
setwindowtitle("Rotate Text")
resize(800,600)
label1 = new qlabel(win1) {
settext("")
myfilter = new qallevents(win1)
myfilter.setMouseButtonPressevent("pClick()")
installeventfilter(myfilter)
}
new qtimer(win1) {
setinterval(50)

settimeoutevent("pTime()")
start()
}
pDraw()
L1 = new qVBoxLayout() { AddWidget(Label1) } SetLayout(L1)
showMaximized()
}
exec()
}
Func pDraw
p1 = new qpicture()
color = new qcolor() {
setrgb(0,0,255,255)
}
pen = new qpen() {
setcolor(color)
setwidth(50)
}
painter = new qpainter() {
begin(p1)
setpen(pen)
myfont = font()
myfont.setpointsize(50)
setfont(myfont)
rotate(nAngle)
drawtext(350,0*nAngle,"welcome")
drawtext(0,0*nAngle,"welcome")
endpaint()
}
label1 {
setpicture(p1)
show()
}
Func pClick
win1 { setwindowtitle("Click Event") }
Func pTime
nAngle++
if nAngle = 90
nAngle = 10

64.51 Change Focus
The next example change the focus using the ENTER key.
load "guilib.ring"
new qApp {
win = new qWidget() {
resize(600,600)
SetWindowTitle("Change Focus")
text1 = new qLineEdit(win)
text2 = new qLineEdit(win)
text3 = new qLineEdit(win)
text4 = new qLineEdit(win)
layout1 = new qVBoxLayout() {
AddWidget(text1)
AddWidget(text2)
AddWidget(text3)
AddWidget(text4)
}
setLayout(Layout1)
64.51. Change Focus 736

9. Ring Documentation, Release 1.9
aList = [text1,text2,text3,text4]
oFilter = new qallevents(win)
oFilter.setKeyPressEvent("pWork()")
installeventfilter(oFilter)
show()
}
exec()
}
func pWork
nCode = oFilter.getkeycode()
if nCode = 16777220 # ENTER Key
for x=1 to len(aList)
if aList[x].HasFocus()
t = x+1
if t > len(aList) t=1 ok
aList[t].SetFocus(0)
exit
ok
next
ok
64.52 Regular Expressions
The next example uses the Regular Expressions classes.
load "guilib.ring"
new qApp
{
see "Using Regular Expressions" + nl
exp = new qregularexpression() {
setPattern("dd w+")
see pattern() + nl
match = match("33 one",0,0,0)
see match.hasmatch() + nl
match = match("3 one",0,0,0)
see match.hasmatch() + nl
match = match("welcome 11 one",0,0,0)
see match.hasmatch() + nl
matched = match.captured(0)
see matched + nl
}
exp = new qregularexpression() {
setPattern("^(dd)/(dd)/(dddd)$")
see pattern() + nl
match = match("08/12/1985",0,0,0)
see match.hasmatch() + nl
day = match.captured(1)
month = match.captured(2)
year = match.captured(3)
see day + nl + month + nl + year + nl
see "(" + match.capturedStart(1) + "," + match.capturedEnd(1)+ ")" + nl
see "(" + match.capturedStart(2) + "," + match.capturedEnd(2)+ ")" + nl
see "(" + match.capturedStart(3) + "," + match.capturedEnd(3)+ ")" + nl

64.53 Simple Client and Server Example
In this section we will learn about creating simple Client and Server Application
Load "guilib.ring"
new qApp {
oClient = new Client { client() }
oServer = new Server { server() }
exec()
}
Class Client
win1 lineedit1 cOutput=""
oTcpSocket
func client
win1 = new qwidget()
new qpushbutton(win1) {
setgeometry(50,50,100,30)
settext("connect")
setclickevent("oClient.Connect()")
}
lineedit1 = new qtextedit(win1) {
setGeometry(150,50,200,300)
}
win1 {
setwindowtitle("client")
setgeometry(10,100,400,400)
show()
