Hi everyone.
I created a program based on the QCad Application framework that has a QTableWidget in a QDockWidget. I need to update contents of this table when user switches between opened files in the application. How can I be informed that user has selected a new tab in MDI area?

Creating a focus listener class:

function MyFocusListener() {
    RFocusListenerAdapter.call(this);
}

MyFocusListener.prototype = new RFocusListenerAdapter();

MyFocusListener.prototype.updateFocus = function(documentInterface) {
    // this will be called whenever the user switched to another document
    // documentInterface may be undefined if no document is open (last document was closed)
    // in this case, a widget is typically cleared
};

Installing the focus listener:

var appWin = EAction.getMainWindow();
var fl = new MyFocusListener();
appWin.addFocusListener(fl);

Thanks but I got this error :

Sorry, the last line should be:

appWin.addFocusListener(fl);

(I've also corrected this in the previous post to avoid confusion for other readers).
