    \class QSqlPropertyMap qsqlpropertymap.h
    \brief The QSqlPropertyMap class is used to map widgets to SQL fields.

    \ingroup database
    \module sql

    The SQL module uses Qt \link properties.html object
    properties\endlink to insert and extract values from editor
    widgets.

    This class is used to map editors to SQL fields. This works by
    associating SQL editor class names to the properties used to
    insert and extract values to/from the editor.

    For example, a QLineEdit can be used to edit text strings and
    other data types in QDataTables or QSqlForms. Several properties
    are defined in QLineEdit, but only the \e text property is used to
    insert and extract text from a QLineEdit. Both QDataTable and
    QSqlForm use the global QSqlPropertyMap for inserting and
    extracting values to and from an editor widget. The global
    property map defines several common widgets and properties that
    are suitable for many applications. You can add and remove widget
    properties to suit your specific needs.

    If you want to use custom editors with your QDataTable or
    QSqlForm, you must install your own QSqlPropertyMap for that table
    or form. Example:

    \code
    QSqlPropertyMap *myMap  = new QSqlPropertyMap();
    QSqlForm        *myForm = new QSqlForm( this );
    MyEditor myEditor( this );

    // Set the QSqlForm's record buffer to the update buffer of
    // a pre-existing QSqlCursor called 'cur'.
    myForm->setRecord( cur->primeUpdate() );

    // Install the customized map
    myMap->insert( "MyEditor", "content" );
    myForm->installPropertyMap( myMap ); // myForm now owns myMap
    ...
    // Insert a field into the form that uses a myEditor to edit the
    // field 'somefield'
    myForm->insert( &myEditor, "somefield" );

    // Update myEditor with the value from the mapped database field
    myForm->readFields();
    ...
    // Let the user edit the form
    ...
    // Update the database fields with the values in the form
    myForm->writeFields();
    ...
    \endcode

    You can also replace the global QSqlPropertyMap that is used by
    default. (Bear in mind that QSqlPropertyMap takes ownership of the
    new default map.)

    \code
    QSqlPropertyMap *myMap = new QSqlPropertyMap;

    myMap->insert( "MyEditor", "content" );
    QSqlPropertyMap::installDefaultMap( myMap );
    ...
    \endcode

    \sa QDataTable, QSqlForm, QSqlEditorFactory
