QValueList is part of the + \link qtl.html Qt Template Library\endlink. + + QValueList\<T\> defines a template instance to create a list of + values that all have the class T. Note that QValueList does not + store pointers to the members of the list; it holds a copy of + every member. This is why these kinds of classes are called "value + based"; QPtrList and QDict are "pointer based". + + QValueList contains and manages a collection of objects of type T + and provides iterators that allow the contained objects to be + addressed. QValueList owns the contained items. For more relaxed + ownership semantics, see QPtrCollection and friends which are + pointer-based containers. + + Some classes cannot be used within a QValueList, for example, all + classes derived from QObject and thus all classes that implement + widgets. Only values can be used in a QValueList. To qualify as a + value the class must provide: + \list + \i a copy constructor; + \i an assignment operator; + \i a default constructor, i.e. a constructor that does not take any arguments. + \endlist + + Note that C++ defaults to field-by-field assignment operators and + copy constructors if no explicit version is supplied. In many + cases this is sufficient. + + In addition, some compilers (e.g. Sun CC) might retquire that the + class provides an equality operator (operator==()). + + QValueList's function naming is consistent with the other Qt + classes (e.g. count(), isEmpty()). QValueList also provides extra + functions for compatibility with STL algorithms, such as size() + and empty(). Programmers already familiar with the STL \c list may + prefer to use the STL-compatible functions. + + Example: + \code + class Employee + { + public: + Employee(): sn(0) {} + Employee( const QString& forename, const QString& surname, int salary ) + : fn(forename), sn(surname), sal(salary) + {} + + QString forename() const { return fn; } + QString surname() const { return sn; } + int salary() const { return sal; } + void setSalary( int salary ) { sal = salary; } + + private: + QString fn; + QString sn; + int sal; + }; + + typedef QValueList<Employee> EmployeeList; + EmployeeList list; + + list.append( Employee("John", "Doe", 50000) ); + list.append( Employee("Jane", "Williams", 80000) ); + list.append( Employee("Tom", "Jones", 60000) ); + + Employee mary( "Mary", "Hawthorne", 90000 ); + list.append( mary ); + mary.setSalary( 100000 ); + + EmployeeList::iterator it; + for ( it = list.begin(); it != list.end(); ++it ) + cout << (*it).surname().latin1() << ", " << + (*it).forename().latin1() << " earns " << + (*it).salary() << endl; + + // Output: + // Doe, John earns 50000 + // Williams, Jane earns 80000 + // Hawthorne, Mary earns 90000 + // Jones, Tom earns 60000 + \endcode + + + Notice that the latest changes to Mary's salary did not affect the + value in the list because the list created a copy of Mary's entry. + + There are several ways to find items in the list. The begin() and + end() functions return iterators to the beginning and end of the + list. The advantage of getting an iterator is that you can move + forward or backward from this position by + incrementing/decrementing the iterator. The iterator returned by + end() points to the item which is one \e past the last item in the + container. The past-the-end iterator is still associated with the + list it belongs to, however it is \e not dereferenceable; + operator*() will not return a well-defined value. If the list is + empty(), the iterator returned by begin() will equal the iterator + returned by end(). + + Another way to find an item in the list is by using the \link + qtl.html#qFind qFind()\endlink algorithm. For example: + + \code + QValueList<int> list; + ... + QValueList<int>::iterator it = qFind( list.begin(), list.end(), 3 ); + if ( it != list.end() ) + // it points to the found item + \endcode + + It is safe to have multiple iterators a the list at the same + time. If some member of the list is removed, only iterators + pointing to the removed member become invalid. Inserting into the + list does not invalidate any iterator. For convenience, the + function last() returns a reference to the last item in the list, + and first() returns a reference to the the first item. If the + list is empty(), both last() and first() have undefined behavior + (your application will crash or do unpredictable things). Use + last() and first() with caution, for example: + + \code + QValueList<int> list; + list.append( 1 ); + list.append( 2 ); + list.append( 3 ); + ... + if ( !list.empty() ) { + // OK, modify the first item + int& i = list.first(); + i = 18; + } + ... + QValueList<double> dlist; + double d = dlist.last(); // undefined + \endcode + + Because QValueList is value-based there is no need to be careful + about deleting items in the list. The list holds its own copies + and will free them if the corresponding member or the list itself + is deleted. You can force the list to free all of its items with + clear(). + + QValueList is shared implicitly, which means it can be copied in + constant time, i.e. O(1). If multiple QValueList instances share + the same data and one needs to modify its contents, this modifying + instance makes a copy and modifies its private copy; therefore it + does not affect the other instances; this takes O(n) time. This is + often called "copy on write". If a QValueList is being used in a + multi-threaded program, you must protect all access to the list. + See \l QMutex. + + There are several ways to insert items into the list. The + prepend() and append() functions insert items at the beginning and + the end of the list respectively. The insert() function comes in + several flavors and can be used to add one or more items at + specific positions within the list. + + Items can also be removed from the list in several ways. There + are several variants of the remove() function, which removes a + specific item from the list. The remove() function will find and + remove items according to a specific item value. + + Lists can also be sorted using the \link qtl.html Qt Template + Library\endlink. For example with qHeapSort(): + + Example: + \code + QValueList<int> list; + list.append( 5 ); + list.append( 8 ); + list.append( 3 ); + list.append( 4 ); + qHeapSort( list ); + \endcode + + \sa QValueListIterator +*/ + +/*! \enum QValueList::iterator + The list's iterator type, QValueListIterator. */ +/*! \enum QValueList::const_iterator + The list's const iterator type, QValueListConstIterator. */ +/*! \enum QValueList::value_type + The type of the object stored in the list, T. */ +/*! \enum QValueList::pointer + The pointer to T type. */ +/*! \enum QValueList::const_pointer + The const pointer to T type. */ +/*! \enum QValueList::reference + The reference to T type. */ +/*! \enum QValueList::const_reference + The const reference to T type. */ +/*! \enum QValueList::size_type + An unsigned integral type, used to represent various sizes. */ +/*! \enum QValueList::difference_type + \internal +*/ +/*! \enum QValueList::ValueType + \internal +*/ +/*! + \fn QValueList::QValueList() + + Constructs an empty list. +*/ + +/*! + \fn QValueList::QValueList( const QValueList<T>& l ) + + Constructs a copy of \a l. + + This operation takes O(1) time because QValueList is implicitly + shared. + + The first modification to a list will take O(n) time. +*/ + +/*! + \fn QValueList::QValueList( const std::list<T>& l ) + + Contructs a copy of \a l. + + This constructor is provided for compatibility with STL + containers. +*/ + +/*! + \fn QValueList::~QValueList() + + Destroys the list.
