Overview

Only works with openDesktop.org and other websites that implement the Open Collaboration Services API.

The Code


include <knewstuff3/uploaddialog.h>



// create the dialog
KNS3::UploadDialog dialog(parentWidget);
// set it up to help the user fill it out
// the file to be uploaded - this is important!
dialog.setUploadFile("some_url_here");
// a suggested title, the user can still change it
// don't set it if you can't make a reasonable suggestion
dialog.setUploadName("A suggested title for the upload");
// a longer description, optional
dialog.setDescription("This is a great file. It was created using foo.");

// show the dialog as modal (you can also use show of course) dialog.exec();

The Configuration File (.knsrc)

In addition to the download version, you need to add UploadCategories, to set up where the contents can be uploaded to.
