Desktop and Mobile development using RingQt¶
In this chapter we will learn how to use the Qt framework classes in our Ring applications to create Desktop and Mobile Applications.
The First GUI Application¶
In this example we will create an application to ask the user about his/her name. When the user type the name in the textbox then click on “Say Hello” button, the textbox value will be updated by adding “Hello ” to the name.
load "guilib.ring"
oApp = new qApp {
win1 = new qWidget() {
setwindowtitle("Hello World")
setGeometry(100,100,370,250)
label1 = new qLabel(win1) {
settext("What is your name ?")
setGeometry(10,20,350,30)
setalignment(Qt_AlignHCenter)
}
btn1 = new qPushButton(win1) {
setGeometry(10,200,100,30)
settext("Say Hello")
setclickevent("pHello()")
}
btn1 = new qPushButton(win1) {
setGeometry(150,200,100,30)
settext("Close")
setclickevent("pClose()")
}
lineedit1 = new qLineEdit(win1) {
setGeometry(10,100,350,30)
}
show()
}
exec()
}
Func pHello
lineedit1.settext( "Hello " + lineedit1.text())
Func pClose
oApp.quit()
Program Output:
At first we type the name in the textbox
Then we click on the say hello button
The Events Loop¶
Qt uses Event-Driven and the events loop get the control when we call the exec() method from the qApp class.
Once we call exec(), The events loop starts, and the Widgets starts responding to the different events (Mouse, Keyboard, Timers, etc).
You get the control back again when an event is fired and your callback function is called.
Once the execution of your callback function is done, the control go back again to the events loop.
Useful things to remember
- We can do most of the work using normal events (Events provided directly by each widget).
- We can add more events to any widget using the Events Filter.
- Using Timers we can easily get the control back and check for more things to do.
Also when our callback function is busy with doing time consuming operations, we can call the ProcessEvents() method from the qApp class to avoid stoping the GUI.
oApp.processevents()
We can avoid calling the exec() method, and create our main loop
It’s not recommended to do that, It’s just an option.
# Instead of calling the exec() method
while true
oApp.processevents() # Respond to GUI Events
# More Thing to do, We have the control!
# .....
end
Using Layout¶
The next example is just an upgrade to the previous application to use the vertical layout.
Load "guilib.ring"
MyApp = New qApp {
win1 = new qWidget() {
setwindowtitle("Hello World")
setGeometry(100,100,400,130)
label1 = new qLabel(win1) {
settext("What is your name ?")
setGeometry(10,20,350,30)
setalignment(Qt_AlignHCenter)
}
btn1 = new qpushbutton(win1) {
setGeometry(10,200,100,30)
settext("Say Hello")
setclickevent("pHello()")
}
btn2 = new qpushbutton(win1) {
setGeometry(150,200,100,30)
settext("Close")
setclickevent("pClose()")
}
lineedit1 = new qlineedit(win1) {
setGeometry(10,100,350,30)
}
layout1 = new qVBoxLayout() {
addwidget(label1)
addwidget(lineedit1)
addwidget(btn1)
addwidget(btn2)
}
win1.setlayout(layout1)
show()
}
exec()
}
Func pHello
lineedit1.settext( "Hello " + lineedit1.text())
Func pClose
MyApp.quit()

Using the QTextEdit Class¶
In this example we will use the QTextEdit Class
Load "guilib.ring"
New qApp {
win1 = new qWidget() {

new qtextedit(win1) {
setGeometry(10,10,480,480)
}
show()
}
exec()
}
During the runtime we can paste rich text in the qtextedit widget
Using the QListWidget Class¶
In this example we will use the QListWidget Class
Load "guilib.ring"

setGeometry(150,100,200,200)
alist = ["one","two","three","four","five"]
for x in alist additem(x) next
setcurrentrow(3,2)
win1.setwindowtitle("Items Count : " + count() )
}
btn1 = new qpushbutton(win1) {
setGeometry(10,200,100,30)
settext("selected item")
setclickevent("pWork()")
}
btn2 = new qpushbutton(win1) {
setGeometry(10,240,100,30)
settext("Delete item")
setclickevent("pWork2()")
}
show()
}
exec()
}

Other Widgets Events¶
Each Qt signal can be used in RingQt, just add Set before the signal name and add event after the signal name to get the method that can be used to determine the event code.
For example the QProgressBar class contains a signal named valueChanged() To use it just use the function setValueChangedEvent()
Example:
Load "guilib.ring"
New qApp {
win1 = new qMainWindow() {
setwindowtitle("QProgressBar valueChanged Event")
progress1 = new qprogressbar(win1) {
setGeometry(100,100,350,30)
setvalue(10)
setvaluechangedevent("pChange()")
}
new qpushbutton(win1) {
setGeometry(10,10,100,30)
settext("increase")
setclickevent("pIncrease()")
}
showMaximized()
}
exec()
}
func pIncrease
progress1 { setvalue(value()+1) }
func pchange
win1.setwindowtitle("value : " + progress1.value() )

imageH = imageH / AspectRatio
### Size-H, Size-V, Aspect, Transform
setpixmap(image.scaled(imageW , imageH ,0,0))
PosLeft = (BoxWidth - imageW ) / 2
PosTop = (BoxHeight - imageH ) / 2
setGeometry(PosLeft,PosTop,imageW,imageH)

The application during the runtime
Dynamic Objects¶
We may create objects in the runtime and add them to windows.
Example:
load "guilib.ring"
oFormDesigner = new FormDesigner { start("oFormDesigner") }
Class FormDesigner
winToolBox winForm

func start cObjectName
oApp = new qApp
winToolBox = new qWidget()
winToolBox.setWindowTitle("ToolBox")
winToolBox.move(10,10)
winToolBox.resize(300,600)
btn = new qPushButton(winToolBox)
btn.resize(300,30)
btn.setText("Create Button")
btn.setClickEvent(cObjectName+".pCreateButton()")
btn.show()
winToolBox.show()
winForm = new qWidget() {
move(400,50)
setWindowTitle("Form Designer")
resize(600,600)
show()
}
oApp.exec()
func pCreateButton

the functions pDebug(), pRun() and pRunNoConsole() in the previous sample are not portable! They are written in this sample for MS-Windows and we can update them for other operating systems.
The Cards Game¶
In the next example we will see a simple Cards game developed using RingQt
Each player get 5 cards, the cards are unknown to any one. each time one player click on one card to see it. if the card is identical to another card the play get point for each card. if the card value is “5” the player get points for all visible cards.

The application during the runtime
Note
in the previous screen shot the player get the card number ‘5’ but his score is not increased because he opened this card while no other cards are visible!
The next screen shot while running the game using a Mobile (Android)
Note
using Qt we can run the same application on other Mobile systems

Methods to use Events with Events Filter¶
RingQt define a new class called QAllEvents that help you in using Events Filter
The next table presents the methods that we have
| Methods to get parameters | Class Name |
|---|---|
| getKeyCode() –> Number | QAllEvents |
| getx() –> Number | |
| gety() –> Number | |
| getglobalx() –> Number | |
| getglobaly() –> Number | |
| getbutton() –> Number | |
| getbuttons() –> Number |
The next table presents the methods that we have to use events.
| Method Name | Class Name |
|---|---|
| setKeyPressEvent(cEvent) | QAllEvents |
| setMouseButtonPressEvent(cEvent) | |
| setMouseButtonReleaseEvent(cEvent) | |
| setMouseButtonDblClickEvent(cEvent) | |
| setMouseMoveEvent(cEvent) | |
| setCloseEvent(cEvent) | |
| setContextMenuEvent(cEvent) | |
| setDragEnterEvent(cEvent) | |
| setDragLeaveEvent(cEvent) | |
| setDragMoveEvent(cEvent) | |
| setDropEvent(cEvent) | |
| setEnterEvent(cEvent) | |
| setFocusInEvent(cEvent) | |
| setFocusOutEvent(cEvent) | |
| setKeyReleaseEvent(cEvent) | |
| setLeaveEvent(cEvent) | |
| setNonClientAreaMouseButtonDblClickEvent(cEvent) | |
| setNonClientAreaMouseButtonPressEvent(cEvent) | |
| setNonClientAreaMouseButtonReleaseEvent(cEvent) | |
| setNonClientAreaMouseMoveEvent(cEvent) | |
| setMoveEvent(cEvent) | |
| setResizeEvent(cEvent) | |
| setWindowActivateEvent(cEvent) | |
| setWindowBlockedEvent(cEvent) | |
| setWindowDeactivateEvent(cEvent) | |
| setWindowStateChangeEvent(cEvent) | |
| setWindowUnblockedEvent(cEvent) |
The Difference between Qt and RingQt¶
- RingQt use simple methods to set the code that will be executed for events.
Syntax:
Set<Event_Name>Event(cEventCode)
- RingQt change the name of some methods to avoid conflict with Ring Keywords.
The next table present these little changes
| Class Name | Qt Method Name | RingQt Method Name |
|---|---|---|
| QWebView | load | loadpage |
| QMediaPlaylist | load | loadfile |
| QMediaPlaylist | next | movenext |
| QPainter | end | endpaint |
| QPicture | load | loadfile |
| QLineEdit | end | endtext |
| QDialog | done | donedialog |
| QTextDocument | end | enddoc |
| QTextBlock | next | nextblock |
| QSqlQuery | next | movenext |
| QImage | load | loadimage |
| QNetworkAccessManager | get | getvalue |
| QNetworkAccessManager | put | putvalue |
| QThread | exit | exitfromthread |
| QRegularExpressionMatchIterator | next | nextitem |
| QCamera | load | loadcamera |
RingQt Classes and their Qt Documentation¶
Qt Documentation : http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/classes.html
See the “RingQt Classes and Methods Reference” chapter for supported classes and methods.
New Classes names - Index Start from 1¶
We added new classes to RingQt - another version of classes where the class names doesn’t start with the “q” letter Also updated methods so the index start from 1 when we deal with the GUI controls like
- ComboBox
- ListWidget
- TableWidget
- TreeWidget
These classes are inside guilib.ring under the package name : System.GUI
To use it
load "guilib.ring"
import System.GUI
This doesn’t have any effect on our previous code, It’s just another choice for better code that is consistent with Ring rules.
Also the form designer is updated to provide us the choice between using classes where (index start from 0) or (index start from 1)
Example (Uses the Form Designer)
Creating Reports using the WebLib and the GUILib¶
The WebLib comes with a class called HtmlPage
Using this class we can create reports quickly using WebLib & GUILib together
Example:
load "stdlib.ring"
load "weblib.ring"
load "guilib.ring"
import System.Web
import System.GUI
new qApp {
open_window(:CustomersReportController)
exec()
}
class CustomersReportController
oView = new CustomersReportView
func Start
CreateReport()
func CreateReport
mypage = new HtmlPage {
h1 { text("Customers Report") }
Table
{
style = stylewidth("100%") + stylegradient(4)
TR
{
TD { WIDTH="10%"
text("Customers Count : " ) }
TD { text (100) }
}
}
Table
{
style = stylewidth("100%") + stylegradient(26)
TR
{
style = stylewidth("100%") +
stylegradient(24)
TD { text("Name " ) }
TD { text("Age" ) }
TD { text("Country" ) }
TD { text("Job" ) }
TD { text("Company" ) }
}
for x = 1 to 100
TR
{
TD { text("Test" ) }
TD { text("30" ) }
TD { text("Egypt" ) }
TD { text("Sales" ) }
TD { text("Future" ) }
}
next
}
}
write("report.html",mypage.output())
func PrintEvent
printer1 = new qPrinter(0) {
setoutputformat(1)
setoutputfilename("report.pdf")
}
oView {
web.print(printer1)
web.show()
}
system ("report.pdf")
class CustomersReportView
win = new window() {
setwindowtitle("Report Window")
setgeometry(100,100,500,500)
web = new webview(win) {
setgeometry(100,100,1000,500)
loadpage(new qurl("file:///"+

}
new pushbutton(win) {

settext("Print")
setclickevent(Method(:PrintEvent))
}
