@class QtMvvm::InputViewFactory

The factory is used by the QuickPresenter to create input views and delegates for various
types. This is used to for example create the edits of input dialogs or for the list delegates
of a SettingsView.

/*!
@fn QtMvvm::InputViewFactory::getInputUrl

@param type The input type to create a view for
@param viewProperties A map with extra properties to be set on the edit
@returns A url to a QML component suitable for editing input of the given type

The factory first checks if the given type is registered as alias. If yes, it continues with
the aliased type. Then it checks for a url registered as simple view exists for the given
type and uses that one if present. If no simple view is set the default mapping for type to
urls is used (See MessageConfig::TypeInputDialog for a full table of supported types). If no
url can be found for a type, an invalid url is returned.

The viewProperties are used to setup the created view by settings them as properties on the
view. For every key-value-pair in the map, QObject::setProperty is called on the view to
set the property.

/*!
@fn QtMvvm::InputViewFactory::getDelegate

@param type The input type to create a delegate for
@param viewProperties A map with extra properties to be set on the delegate
@returns A url to a QML component suitable for editing input of the given type, as a delegate

Delegates can be used to provide "editabel" list items for ListViews. (For example, the
SettingsView makes use of them). Available roles are:
- group
- key
- type
- title
- tooltip
- delegateUrl
- inputValue
- properties

The factory first checks if the given type is registered as alias. If yes, it continues with
the aliased type. Then it checks for a url registered as simple delegate exists for the given
type and uses that one if present. If no simple delegate is set the default mapping for type
to urls is used (See MessageConfig::TypeInputDialog for a full table of supported types). If
no url can be found for a type, the MsgDelegate is returned, which will simply show an input
of the given type. Thus, for all not explicitly supported delegate types, the getInputUrl() is
used to find an edit for the dialog.

The viewProperties are used to setup the created delegate by settings them as properties on
the delegate. For every key-value-pair in the map, QObject::setProperty is called on the
delegate to set the property.
