+
+
+The TQCustomEvent class provides support for custom events.
+<p>
+<p> TQCustomEvent is a generic event class for user-defined events.
+User defined events can be sent to widgets or other <a href="qobject.html">TQObject</a>
+instances using <a href="qapplication.html#postEvent">TQApplication::postEvent</a>() or
+<a href="qapplication.html#sendEvent">TQApplication::sendEvent</a>(). Subclasses of TQObject can easily
+receive custom events by implementing the <a href="qobject.html#customEvent">TQObject::customEvent</a>()
+event handler function.
+<p> TQCustomEvent objects should be created with a type ID that
+uniquely identifies the event type. To avoid clashes with the
+TQt-defined events types, the value should be at least as large as
+the value of the "User" entry in the TQEvent::Type enum.
+<p> TQCustomEvent contains a generic void* data member that may be used
+for transferring event-specific data to the receiver. Note that
+since events are normally delivered asynchronously, the data
+pointer, if used, must remain valid until the event has been
+received and processed.
+<p> TQCustomEvent can be used as-is for simple user-defined event
+types, but normally you will want to make a subclass of it for
+your event types. In a subclass, you can add data members that are
+suitable for your event type.
+<p> Example:
+<pre>
+ class ColorChangeEvent : public TQCustomEvent
+ {
+ public:
+ ColorChangeEvent( <a href="qcolor.html">TQColor</a> color )
+ : TQCustomEvent( 65432 ), c( color ) {}
+ <a href="qcolor.html">TQColor</a> color() const { return c; }
+ private:
+ <a href="qcolor.html">TQColor</a> c;
+ };
+
+ // To send an event of this custom event type:
+
+ ColorChangeEvent* ce = new ColorChangeEvent( blue );
+ TQApplication::<a href="qapplication.html#postEvent">postEvent</a>( receiver, ce ); // TQt will delete it when done
+
+ // To receive an event of this custom event type:
+
+ void MyWidget::customEvent( TQCustomEvent * e )
+ {
+ if ( e-&gt;<a href="qevent.html#type">type</a>() == 65432 ) { // It must be a ColorChangeEvent
+ ColorChangeEvent* ce = (ColorChangeEvent*)e;
+ newColor = ce-&gt;color();
+ }
+ }
+ </pre>

+<hr><h2>Member Function Documentation</h2>
+<h3 class=fn><a name="TQCustomEvent"></a>TQCustomEvent::TQCustomEvent ( int&nbsp;type )
+</h3>
+Constructs a custom event object with event type <em>type</em>. The
+value of <em>type</em> must be at least as large as TQEvent::User. The
+data pointer is set to 0.
+
+<h3 class=fn><a name="TQCustomEvent-2"></a>TQCustomEvent::TQCustomEvent ( <a href="qevent.html#Type-enum">Type</a>&nbsp;type, void&nbsp;*&nbsp;data )
+</h3>
+
+<p> Constructs a custom event object with the event type <em>type</em> and a
+pointer to <em>data</em>. (Note that any int value may safely be cast to
+TQEvent::Type).
+
+<h3 class=fn>void * <a name="data"></a>TQCustomEvent::data () const
+</h3>
+
+<p> Returns a pointer to the generic event data.
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#setData">setData</a>().
+
+<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setData"></a>TQCustomEvent::setData ( void&nbsp;*&nbsp;data )
+</h3>
+
+<p> Sets the generic data pointer to <em>data</em>.
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#data">data</a>().
