BasemapHttpHeaders is a QMap<QString,QString> where the key "referer" stores the HTTP Referer header. Arbitrary extra headers are stored alongside it. When persisted in QSettings the key is written under a http-header/ sub-group, matching the QGIS convention so exported connection XML is interoperable.

TileAxisOrder is shared between XYZConnection (stored on the struct) and XYZTileLayer (stored as a runtime member).

Typedef Documentation

BasemapHttpHeaders

using BasemapHttpHeaders = QMap<QString, QString>

Arbitrary HTTP header map for basemap requests.

Key "referer" is the HTTP Referer. All other keys are additional headers (e.g., "User-Agent", "X-Api-Key"). Written to QSettings under the http-header/{key} sub-group.

Enumeration Type Documentation

TileAxisOrder

enum class TileAxisOrder

strong

Controls how {x}/{y} tile coordinates are ordered in the URL.

Enumerator
ZXY	Standard OSM / slippy-map: tile/{z}/{x}/{y}
ZYX	ArcGIS REST: tile/{z}/{y}/{x}
