## Detailed Description

Base class of all the device interfaces.

A device interface describes what a device can do. A device generally has a set of device interfaces.

## Enumerations
Type | { Unknown, GenericInterface, Processor, Block, StorageAccess, StorageDrive, OpticalDrive, StorageVolume, OpticalDisc, Camera, PortableMediaPlayer, NetworkInterface, AcAdapter, Battery, Button, AudioInterface, DvbInterface, Video, Last }
## Methods
| __init__ (self, DeviceInterfacePrivate dd, QObject backendObject)
| __init__ (self)
bool | isValid (self)
## Static Methods
Solid.DeviceInterface.Type | stringToType (QString type)
QString | typeToString (Solid.DeviceInterface.Type type)

## Method Documentation

__init__ | ( | self, |
|  | DeviceInterfacePrivate | dd,
|  | QObject | backendObject
| ) |  |  |

Internal:
  Creates a new DeviceInterface object.

Parameters:

  | dd | the private d member. It will take care of deleting it upon destruction.
  | backendObject | the device interface object provided by the backend

__init__ | ( |  | self ) |

bool isValid | ( |  | self ) |

Indicates if this device interface is valid. A device interface is considered valid if the device it is referring is available in the system.

Returns:
  true if this device interface's device is available, false otherwise

Solid.DeviceInterface.Type stringToType | ( | QString | type
| ) |  |  |

Returns:
  the device interface type for the given name

QString typeToString | ( | Solid.DeviceInterface.Type | type
| ) |  |  |

Returns:
  the name of the device interface type
