class allows the application to send
network requests and receive replies</p>
<p>The Network Access API is constructed around one
QNetworkAccessManager object, which holds the common configuration
and settings for the requests it sends. It contains the proxy and
cache configuration, as well as the signals related to such issues,
and reply signals that can be used to monitor the progress of a
network operation. One QNetworkAccessManager should be enough for
the whole Qt application.</p>
<p>Once a QNetworkAccessManager object has been created, the
application can use it to send requests over the network. A group
of standard functions are supplied that take a request and optional
data, and each return a <a href="qnetworkreply.html">QNetworkReply</a> object. The returned object
is used to obtain any data returned in response to the
corresponding request.</p>
<p>A simple download off the network could be accomplished
with:</p>
<pre class="cpp">
<span class="type">QNetworkAccessManager</span> <span class="operator">*</span>manager <span class="operator">=</span> <span class="keyword">new</span> <span class="type">QNetworkAccessManager</span>(<span class="keyword">this</span>);
<a href="qobject.html#connect">connect</a>(manager<span class="operator">,</span> SIGNAL(finished(<span class="type"><a href="qnetworkreply.html">QNetworkReply</a></span><span class="operator">*</span>))<span class="operator">,</span>
<span class="keyword">this</span><span class="operator">,</span> SLOT(replyFinished(<span class="type"><a href="qnetworkreply.html">QNetworkReply</a></span><span class="operator">*</span>)));
manager<span class="operator">-</span><span class="operator">></span><a href="qnetworkaccessmanager.html#get">get</a>(<span class="type"><a href="qnetworkrequest.html">QNetworkRequest</a></span>(<span class="type"><a href="qurl.html">QUrl</a></span>(<span class="string">"http://qt.nokia.com"</span>)));
</pre>
<p>QNetworkAccessManager has an asynchronous API. When the
<tt>replyFinished</tt> slot above is called, the parameter it takes
is the <a href="qnetworkreply.html">QNetworkReply</a> object
containing the downloaded data as well as meta-data (headers,
etc.).</p>
<p><b>Note:</b> After the request has finished, it is the
responsibility of the user to delete the <a href="qnetworkreply.html">QNetworkReply</a> object at an appropriate
time. Do not directly delete it inside the slot connected to
<a href="qnetworkaccessmanager.html#finished">finished</a>(). You
can use the <a href="qobject.html#deleteLater">deleteLater</a>()
function.</p>
<p><b>Note:</b> QNetworkAccessManager queues the requests it
receives. The number of requests executed in parallel is dependent
on the protocol. Currently, for the HTTP protocol on desktop
platforms, 6 requests are executed in parallel for one host/port
combination.</p>
<p>A more involved example, assuming the manager is already
existent, can be:</p>
<pre class="cpp">
<span class="type"><a href="qnetworkrequest.html">QNetworkRequest</a></span> request;
request<span class="operator">.</span>setUrl(<span class="type"><a href="qurl.html">QUrl</a></span>(<span class="string">"http://qt.nokia.com"</span>));
request<span class="operator">.</span>setRawHeader(<span class="string">"User-Agent"</span><span class="operator">,</span> <span class="string">"MyOwnBrowser 1.0"</span>);
<span class="type"><a href="qnetworkreply.html">QNetworkReply</a></span> <span class="operator">*</span>reply <span class="operator">=</span> manager<span class="operator">-</span><span class="operator">></span><a href="qnetworkaccessmanager.html#get">get</a>(request);
<a href="qobject.html#connect">connect</a>(reply<span class="operator">,</span> SIGNAL(readyRead())<span class="operator">,</span> <span class="keyword">this</span><span class="operator">,</span> SLOT(slotReadyRead()));
<a href="qobject.html#connect">connect</a>(reply<span class="operator">,</span> SIGNAL(error(<span class="type"><a href="qnetworkreply.html">QNetworkReply</a></span><span class="operator">.</span>NetworkError))<span class="operator">,</span>
<span class="keyword">this</span><span class="operator">,</span> SLOT(slotError(<span class="type"><a href="qnetworkreply.html">QNetworkReply</a></span><span class="operator">.</span>NetworkError)));
<a href="qobject.html#connect">connect</a>(reply<span class="operator">,</span> SIGNAL(sslErrors(<span class="type"><a href="qlist.html">QList</a></span><span class="operator"><</span><span class="type"><a href="qsslerror.html">QSslError</a></span><span class="operator">></span>))<span class="operator">,</span>
<span class="keyword">this</span><span class="operator">,</span> SLOT(slotSslErrors(<span class="type"><a href="qlist.html">QList</a></span><span class="operator"><</span><span class="type"><a href="qsslerror.html">QSslError</a></span><span class="operator">></span>)));

<a id="network-and-roaming-support" name="network-and-roaming-support" />
<h3>Network and Roaming support</h3>
<p>With the addition of the <a href="bearer-management.html">Bearer
Management</a> API to Qt 4.7 QNetworkAccessManager gained the
ability to manage network connections. QNetworkAccessManager can
start the network interface if the device is offline and terminates
the interface if the current process is the last one to use the
uplink. Note that some platform utilize grace periods from when the
last application stops using a uplink until the system actually
terminates the connectivity link. Roaming is equally transparent.
Any queued/pending network requests are automatically transferred
to new access point.</p>
<p>Clients wanting to utilize this feature should not require any
changes. In fact it is likely that existing platform specific
connection code can simply be removed from the application.</p>
<p><b>Note:</b> The network and roaming support in
QNetworkAccessManager is conditional upon the platform supporting
connection management. The <a href="qnetworkconfigurationmanager.html#Capability-enum">QNetworkConfigurationManager.NetworkSessionRequired</a>
can be used to detect whether QNetworkAccessManager utilizes this
feature. Currently only Meego/Harmattan and Symbian platforms
provide connection management support.</p>
<p><b>Note:</b> This feature cannot be used in combination with the
Bearer Management API as provided by QtMobility. Applications have
to migrate to the Qt version of Bearer Management.</p>
<a id="symbian-platform-security-requirements" name="symbian-platform-security-requirements" />
<h3>Symbian Platform Security Requirements</h3>
<p>On Symbian, processes which use this class must have the
<tt>NetworkServices</tt> platform security capability. If the
client process lacks this capability, operations will result in a
panic.</p>
<p>Platform security capabilities are added via the <a href="qmake-variable-reference.html#target-capability">TARGET.CAPABILITY</a>
qmake variable.</p>

accepts all cookies sent by the server, as long as they are well

A
proxy factory is used to determine a more specific list of proxies
to be used for a given request, instead of trying to use the same
proxy value for all requests.</p>
<p>All queries sent by <a href="qnetworkaccessmanager.html">QNetworkAccessManager</a> will have
type <a href="qnetworkproxyquery.html#QueryType-enum">QNetworkProxyQuery.UrlRequest</a>.</p>
<p>For example, a proxy factory could apply the following
rules:</p>
<ul>
<li>if the target address is in the local network (for example, if
the hostname contains no dots or if it's an IP address in the
organization's range), return <a href="qnetworkproxy.html#ProxyType-enum">QNetworkProxy.NoProxy</a></li>
<li>if the request is FTP, return an FTP proxy</li>
<li>if the request is HTTP or HTTPS, then return an HTTP proxy</li>
<li>otherwise, return a SOCKSv5 proxy server</li>
</ul>
<p>The lifetime of the object <i>factory</i> will be managed by
<a href="qnetworkaccessmanager.html">QNetworkAccessManager</a>. It
will delete the object when necessary.</p>
<p><b>Note:</b> If a specific proxy is set with <a href="qnetworkaccessmanager.html#setProxy">setProxy</a>(), the factory
