In PyKDE, namespaces are treated as a "superclass". -For example, "from kparts import KParts" will import the KParts namespace and all -its members.

Following a suggestion on the mailing -list, the docs attempt to flag all abstract classes and identify the pure virtual -methods which must be overloaded in the derived class. Derived classes can be created -in Python by writing Python methods to overload the pure virtual methods - no C++ code -is required. -</P> - -<DIV CLASS="NAVFOOTER"> -<HR ALIGN="LEFT" WIDTH="100%"> -<TABLE SUMMARY="Footer navigation table" WIDTH="100%" BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="0" > -<TR> -<TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="left" VALIGN="top"><A HREF="signal.html" ACCESSKEY="P">Prev</A></TD> -<TD WIDTH="34%" ALIGN="center" VALIGN="top"><A HREF="index.html" ACCESSKEY="H">Home</A></TD> -<TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="right" VALIGN="top"><A HREF="classref/index.html" ACCESSKEY="N">Next</A></TD> -</TR> -<TR> -<TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="left" VALIGN="top">Signals and Slots</TD> -<TD WIDTH="34%" ALIGN="center" VALIGN="top"> </TD> -<TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="right" VALIGN="top">Class Reference</TD> -</TR> -</TABLE> -</DIV> - -</BODY> -</HTML> |
