getExtensionList()

virtual QObjectList VtsStelPluginInterface::getExtensionList ( ) const

inlinevirtual

A mechanism to provide arbitrary QObjects to the StelModuleMgr.

Introduced to provide some limited form of inter-plugin communication. If you do not need this, return an empty list.

The StelModuleMgr remembers all loaded extensions and provides methods to access them. You should use qobject_cast to try to cast each object to a specific interface in which you are interested in.

Reimplemented from StelPluginInterface.
