## Member Function Documentation

### QStatusBar::QStatusBar ( QWidget * parent, const char * name )

Constructs a status bar with a size grip and the given parent and object name.

Use the QStatusBar() constructor and the QObject::setObjectName() function instead.

For example, if you have code like

    QStatusBar *myStatusBar = new QStatusBar(parent, name);

you can rewrite it as

    QStatusBar *myStatusBar = new QStatusBar(parent);
    myStatusBar->setObjectName(name);

### void QStatusBar::addWidget ( QWidget * widget, int stretch, bool permanent )

This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience.

Use addWidget() or addPermanentWidget() instead, depending on the value of the permanent parameter.

For example, if you have code like

    QStatusBar *myStatusBar;
    myStatusBar->addWidget(widget, stretch, permanent);  // permanent == true

you can rewrite it as

    QStatusBar *myStatusBar;
    myStatusBar->addPermanentWidget(widget, stretch);

### void QStatusBar::clear () `[slot]`

Use the clearMessage() function instead.

### void QStatusBar::message ( const QString & message, int timeout = 0 ) `[slot]`

Use the showMessage() function instead.
