[static] QStringList PropertyInfo::allNames()

Get the names of all valid, supported properties

Note: Property::Empty is not considered a valid property.

QString PropertyInfo::displayName() const

Note: When the displayName for a given property is used repeatedly the returned value should be cached, as calling this method is fairly expensive, as the returned name is localized.

QString PropertyInfo::formatAsDisplayString(const QVariant &value) const

Returns the value of the property as a QString with added formatting, added units if needed, and translated enums.

[static] KFileMetaData::PropertyInfo PropertyInfo::fromName(const QString &name)

Construct a PropertyInfo from the internal property name. The internal property name is case insensitive

QString PropertyInfo::name() const

The internal unique name used to refer to the property

KFileMetaData::Property::Property PropertyInfo::property() const

The enumeration which represents this property

bool PropertyInfo::shouldBeIndexed() const

Indicates if this property requires indexing or should just be stored. Eg - Property::Height does not need to be part of the global index. When a user searches for 600, they should not get images with that height

This is just a recommendation.

QMetaType::Type PropertyInfo::valueType() const

The type the value of this property should be. Eg - Property::Height should be an integer

bool PropertyInfo::operator==(const KFileMetaData::PropertyInfo &rhs) const
