\class QDesktopServices
\brief The QDesktopServices class provides methods for accessing common desktop services.
\since 4.2
\ingroup desktop
\inmodule QtGui
Many desktop environments provide services that can be used by applications to
perform common tasks, such as opening a web page, in a way that is both consistent
and takes into account the user's application preferences.
This class contains functions that provide simple interfaces to these services
that indicate whether they succeeded or failed.
The openUrl() function is used to open files located at arbitrary URLs in external
applications. For URLs that correspond to resources on the local filing system
(where the URL scheme is "file"), a suitable application will be used to open the
file; otherwise, a web browser will be used to fetch and display the file.
The user's desktop settings control whether certain executable file types are
opened for browsing, or if they are executed instead. Some desktop environments
are configured to prevent users from executing files obtained from non-local URLs,
or to ask the user's permission before doing so.
\section1 URL Handlers
The behavior of the openUrl() function can be customized for individual URL
schemes to allow applications to override the default handling behavior for
certain types of URLs.
The dispatch mechanism allows only one custom handler to be used for each URL
scheme; this is set using the setUrlHandler() function. Each handler is
implemented as a slot which accepts only a single QUrl argument.
The existing handlers for each scheme can be removed with the
unsetUrlHandler() function. This returns the handling behavior for the given
scheme to the default behavior.
This system makes it easy to implement a help system, for example. Help could be
provided in labels and text browsers using \uicontrol{help://myapplication/mytopic}
URLs, and by registering a handler it becomes possible to display the help text
inside the application:
\snippet code/src_gui_util_qdesktopservices.cpp 0
If inside the handler you decide that you can't open the requested
URL, you can just call QDesktopServices::openUrl() again with the
same argument, and it will try to open the URL using the
appropriate mechanism for the user's desktop environment.
Combined with platform specific settings, the schemes registered by the
openUrl() function can also be exposed to other applications, opening up
for application deep linking or a very basic URL-based IPC mechanism.
\note Since Qt 5, storageLocation() and displayName() are replaced by functionality
provided by the QStandardPaths class.
\sa QSystemTrayIcon, QProcess, QStandardPaths
*/
/*!
Opens the given \a url in the appropriate Web browser for the user's desktop
environment, and returns \c true if successful; otherwise returns \c false.
If the URL is a reference to a local file (i.e., the URL scheme is "file") then
it will be opened with a suitable application instead of a Web browser.
The following example opens a file on the Windows file system residing on a path
that contains spaces:
\snippet code/src_gui_util_qdesktopservices.cpp 2
If a \c mailto URL is specified, the user's e-mail client will be used to open a
composer window containing the options specified in the URL, similar to the way
\c mailto links are handled by a Web browser.
For example, the following URL contains a recipient (\c{user@foo.com}), a
subject (\c{Test}), and a message body (\c{Just a test}):
\snippet code/src_gui_util_qdesktopservices.cpp 1
\warning Although many e-mail clients can send attachments and are
Unicode-aware, the user may have configured their client without these features.
Also, certain e-mail clients (e.g., Lotus Notes) have problems with long URLs.
\warning A return value of \c true indicates that the application has successfully requested
the operating system to open the URL in an external application. The external application may
still fail to launch or fail to open the requested URL. This result will not be reported back
to the application.
\warning URLs passed to this function on iOS will not load unless their schemes are
listed in the \c LSApplicationQueriesSchemes key of the application's Info.plist file.
For more information, see the Apple Developer Documentation for
\l{https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uiapplication/1622952-canopenurl}{canOpenURL(_:)}.
For example, the following lines enable URLs with the HTTPS scheme:
\snippet code/src_gui_util_qdesktopservices.cpp 3

return false;

/*!
Sets the handler for the given \a scheme to be the handler \a method provided by
the \a receiver object.
This function provides a way to customize the behavior of openUrl(). If openUrl()
is called with a URL with the specified \a scheme then the given \a method on the
\a receiver object is called instead of QDesktopServices launching an external
application.
The provided method must be implemented as a slot that only accepts a single QUrl
argument.
\snippet code/src_gui_util_qdesktopservices.cpp 0
To use this function for receiving data from other apps on iOS you also need to
add the custom scheme to the \c CFBundleURLSchemes list in your Info.plist file:
\snippet code/src_gui_util_qdesktopservices.cpp 4
For more information, see the Apple Developer Documentation for
\l{https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/core_app/allowing_apps_and_websites_to_link_to_your_content/communicating_with_other_apps_using_custom_urls?language=objc}{Communicating with Other Apps Using Custom URLs}.
\warning It is not possible to claim support for some well known URL schemes, including http and https. This is only allowed for Universal Links.
To claim support for http and https the above entry in the Info.plist file
is not allowed. This is only possible when you add your domain to the
Entitlements file:
\snippet code/src_gui_util_qdesktopservices.cpp 7
iOS will search for /.well-known/apple-app-site-association on your domain,
when the application is installed. If you want to listen to
https://your.domain.com/help?topic=ABCDEF you need to provide the following
content there:
\snippet code/src_gui_util_qdesktopservices.cpp 8
For more information, see the Apple Developer Documentation for
\l{https://developer.apple.com/documentation/safariservices/supporting_associated_domains_in_your_app}[Supporting Associated Domains}.
If setUrlHandler() is used to set a new handler for a scheme which already
has a handler, the existing handler is simply replaced with the new one.
Since QDesktopServices does not take ownership of handlers, no objects are
deleted when a handler is replaced.
Note that the handler will always be called from within the same thread that
calls QDesktopServices::openUrl().

a different path will be returned.
\c{QDesktopServices::DataLocation} was \c{GenericDataLocation + "/data/organization/application"},

Also note that \c{application} could be empty in Qt 4, if QCoreApplication::setApplicationName()
wasn't called, while in Qt 5 it defaults to the name of the executable.

with
\snippet code/src_gui_util_qdesktopservices.cpp 6
