<div class="descr">
<h2>Detailed Description</h2>
<p>The QPaintEngine class provides an abstract definition of how <a href="qpainter.html">QPainter</a> draws to a given device on a given platform.</p>
<p>Qt 4.0 provides several premade implementations of QPaintEngine for the different painter backends we support. We provide one paint engine for each window system and painting framework we support. This includes X11 on Unix/Linux and <a href="qpaintengine.html#Type-enum">CoreGraphics</a> on Mac OS X. In addition we provide QPaintEngine implementations for <a href="qpaintengine.html#Type-enum">OpenGL</a> (accessible through <a href="qglwidget.html">QGLWidget</a>) and <a href="qpaintengine.html#Type-enum">PostScript</a> (accessible through QPSPrinter on X11). Additionally there is a raster-based paint engine that is a fallback for when an engine does not support a certain capability.</p>
<p>If one wants to use <a href="qpainter.html">QPainter</a> to draw to a different backend, one must subclass QPaintEngine and reimplement all its virtual functions. The QPaintEngine implementation is then made available by subclassing <a href="qpaintdevice.html">QPaintDevice</a> and reimplementing the virtual function <a href="qpaintdevice.html#paintEngine">QPaintDevice::paintEngine</a>().</p>
<p>QPaintEngine is created and owned by the <a href="qpaintdevice.html">QPaintDevice</a> that created it.</p>
<p>The big advantage of the QPaintEngine approach opposed to Qt 3's <a href="qpainter.html">QPainter</a>/QPaintDevice::cmd() approach is that it is now possible to adapt to multiple technologies on each platform and take advantage of each to the fullest.</p>
