slint::interpreter::ComponentCompiler Class
class ComponentCompiler;#include <slint-interpreter.h>ComponentCompiler is the entry point to the Slint interpreter that can be used to load .slint files or compile them on-the-fly from a string (using build_from_source()) or from a path (using build_from_source())
Public Functions
Section titled “Public Functions” ComponentCompiler
Section titled “ ComponentCompiler”slint::interpreter::ComponentCompiler::ComponentCompiler()
Constructs a new ComponentCompiler instance.
~ComponentCompiler
Section titled “ ~ComponentCompiler”slint::interpreter::ComponentCompiler::~ComponentCompiler()
Destroys this ComponentCompiler.
set_include_paths
Section titled “ set_include_paths”void slint::interpreter::ComponentCompiler::set_include_paths(const slint::SharedVector< slint::SharedString > &paths)
Sets the include paths used for looking up .slint imports to the specified vector of paths.
set_style
Section titled “ set_style”void slint::interpreter::ComponentCompiler::set_style(std::string_view style)
Sets the style to be used for widgets.
slint::SharedString slint::interpreter::ComponentCompiler::style() const
Returns the widget style the compiler is currently using when compiling .slint files.
set_translation_domain
Section titled “ set_translation_domain”void slint::interpreter::ComponentCompiler::set_translation_domain(std::string_view domain)
Sets the domain used for translations.
include_paths
Section titled “ include_paths”slint::SharedVector< slint::SharedString > slint::interpreter::ComponentCompiler::include_paths() const
Returns the include paths the component compiler is currently configured with.
diagnostics
Section titled “ diagnostics”slint::SharedVector< Diagnostic > slint::interpreter::ComponentCompiler::diagnostics() const
Returns the diagnostics that were produced in the last call to build_from_path() or build_from_source().
build_from_source
Section titled “ build_from_source”std::optional< ComponentDefinition > slint::interpreter::ComponentCompiler::build_from_source(std::string_view source_code, std::string_view path)
Compile a .slint file into a ComponentDefinition
Returns the compiled ComponentDefinition if there were no errors.
Any diagnostics produced during the compilation, such as warnings or errors, are collected in this ComponentCompiler and can be retrieved after the call using the diagnostics() function.
Diagnostics from previous calls are cleared when calling this function.
build_from_path
Section titled “ build_from_path”std::optional< ComponentDefinition > slint::interpreter::ComponentCompiler::build_from_path(std::string_view path)
Compile some .slint code into a ComponentDefinition
The path argument will be used for diagnostics and to compute relative paths while importing.
Any diagnostics produced during the compilation, such as warnings or errors, are collected in this ComponentCompiler and can be retrieved after the call using the Self::diagnostics() function.
Diagnostics from previous calls are cleared when calling this function.
