/**
    \fn virtual void QtAbstractEditorFactory::connectPropertyManager(PropertyManager *manager) = 0

    Connects this factory to the given \a manager's signals.  The
    PropertyManager type is a template argument class, and represents
    the chosen QtAbstractPropertyManager subclass.

    This function is used internally by the addPropertyManager() function, and
    makes it possible to update an editing widget when the associated
    property's data changes. This is typically done in custom slots
    responding to the signals emitted by the property's manager,
    e.g. QtIntPropertyManager::valueChanged() and
    QtIntPropertyManager::rangeChanged().

/**
    \class QtBrowserItem

    \brief The QtBrowserItem class represents a property in
    a property browser instance.

    Browser items are created whenever a QtProperty is inserted to the
    property browser. A QtBrowserItem uniquely identifies a
    browser's item. Thus, if the same QtProperty is inserted multiple
    times, each occurrence gets its own unique QtBrowserItem. The
    items are owned by QtAbstractPropertyBrowser and automatically
    deleted when they are removed from the browser.

    You can traverse a browser's properties by calling parent() and
    children(). The property and the browser associated with an item
    are available as property() and browser().

/**
    \class QtAbstractPropertyBrowser

    \brief QtAbstractPropertyBrowser provides a base class for
    implementing property browsers.

    A property browser is a widget that enables the user to edit a
    given set of properties.  Each property is represented by a label
    specifying the property's name, and an editing widget (e.g. a line
    edit or a combobox) holding its value. A property can have zero or
    more subproperties.

    \image qtpropertybrowser.png

    The top level properties can be retrieved using the
    properties() function. To traverse each property's
    subproperties, use the QtProperty::subProperties() function. In
    addition, the set of top level properties can be manipulated using
    the addProperty(), insertProperty() and removeProperty()
    functions. Note that the QtProperty class provides a corresponding
    set of functions making it possible to manipulate the set of
    subproperties as well.

    To remove all the properties from the property browser widget, use
    the clear() function. This function will clear the editor, but it
    will not delete the properties since they can still be used in
    other editors.

    The properties themselves are created and managed by
    implementations of the QtAbstractPropertyManager class. A manager
    can handle (i.e. create and manage) properties of a given type. In
    the property browser the managers are associated with
    implementations of the QtAbstractEditorFactory: A factory is a
    class able to create an editing widget of a specified type.

    When using a property browser widget, managers must be created for
    each of the required property types before the properties
    themselves can be created. To ensure that the properties' values
    will be displayed using suitable editing widgets, the managers
    must be associated with objects of the preferred factory
    implementations using the setFactoryForManager() function. The
    property browser will use these associations to determine which
    factory it should use to create the preferred editing widget.

    Note that a factory can be associated with many managers, but a
    manager can only be associated with one single factory within the
    context of a single property browser.  The associations between
    managers and factories can at any time be removed using the
    unsetFactoryForManager() function.

    Whenever the property data changes or a property is inserted or
    removed, the itemChanged(), itemInserted() or
    itemRemoved() functions are called, respectively. These
    functions must be reimplemented in derived classes in order to
    update the property browser widget. Be aware that some property
    instances can appear several times in an abstract tree
    structure. For example:

    \table 100%
    \row
    \o
    \code
        QtProperty *property1, *property2, *property3;

        property2->addSubProperty(property1);
        property3->addSubProperty(property2);

        QtAbstractPropertyBrowser *editor;

        editor->addProperty(property1);
        editor->addProperty(property2);
        editor->addProperty(property3);
    \endcode
    \o  \image qtpropertybrowser-duplicate.png
    \endtable

    The addProperty() function returns a QtBrowserItem that uniquely
    identifies the created item.

    To make a property editable in the property browser, the
    createEditor() function must be called to provide the
    property with a suitable editing widget.

    Note that there are two ready-made property browser
    implementations:

    \list
        \o QtGroupBoxPropertyBrowser
        \o QtTreePropertyBrowser
    \endlist

*/

/**
    \fn void QtAbstractPropertyBrowser::setFactoryForManager(PropertyManager *manager,
                    QtAbstractEditorFactory<PropertyManager> *factory)

    Connects the given \a manager to the given \a factory, ensuring
    that properties of the \a manager's type will be displayed with an
    editing widget suitable for their value.

    For example:

    \code
        QtIntPropertyManager *intManager;
        QtDoublePropertyManager *doubleManager;

        QtProperty *myInteger = intManager->addProperty();
        QtProperty *myDouble = doubleManager->addProperty();

        QtSpinBoxFactory  *spinBoxFactory;
        QtDoubleSpinBoxFactory *doubleSpinBoxFactory;

        QtAbstractPropertyBrowser *editor;
        editor->setFactoryForManager(intManager, spinBoxFactory);
        editor->setFactoryForManager(doubleManager, doubleSpinBoxFactory);

        editor->addProperty(myInteger);
        editor->addProperty(myDouble);
    \endcode

    In this example the \c myInteger property's value is displayed
    with a QSpinBox widget, while the \c myDouble property's value is
    displayed with a QDoubleSpinBox widget.

    Note that a factory can be associated with many managers, but a
    manager can only be associated with one single factory.  If the
    given \a manager already is associated with another factory, the
    old association is broken before the new one established.

    This function ensures that the given \a manager and the given \a
    factory are compatible, and it automatically calls the
    QtAbstractEditorFactory::addPropertyManager() function if necessary.

    level property of \e this property browser.
