It offers the + * possibility for system-wide highscore tables (configure with e.g. + * --enable-highscore-dir=/var/games) and a theoretically unlimited number of + * entries. + * + * You can specify different "keys" for an entry - just like the KConfig + * keys. But it will be prefixed with the number of the entry. For example you + * will probably use something like this to save the name of the player on the + * top of the list (ie the winner): + * \code + * highscore->writeEntry(1, "name", myPlayer->name()); + * \endcode + * Note that it doesn't really matter if you use "0" or "1" as the first entry + * of the list as long as your program always uses the same for the first + * entry. I recommend to use "1", as several convenience methods use this. + * + * You can also specify different groups using setHighscoreGroup. Just + * like the keys mentioned above the groups behave like groups in KConfig + * but are prefixed with "KHighscore_". The default group is just "KHighscore". + * You might use this e.g. to create different highscore tables like + * \code + * table->setHighscoreGroup("Easy"); + * // write the highscores for level "easy" to the table + * writeEasyHighscores(table); + * + * table->setHighscore("Player_1"); + * // write player specific highscores to the table + * writePlayerHighscores(table); + * \endcode + * As you can see above you can also use this to write the highscores of a + * single player, so the "best times" of a player. To write highscores for a + * specific player in a specific level you will have to use a more complex way: + * \code + * QString group = QString("%1_%2").arg(player).arg(level); + * table->setGroup(group); + * writeHighscore(table, player, level); + * \endcode + * + * Also note that you MUST NOT mark the key or the group for translation! I.e. + * don't use i18n() for the keys or groups! Here is the code to read the above + * written entry: + * \code + * QString firstName = highscore->readEntry(0, "name"); + * \endcode + * Easy, what? + * @author Andreas Beckermann + **/ +class KDE_EXPORT KHighscore : public QObject +{ + Q_OBJECT +public: + /** @obsolete + * Constructor.
