QT how to use QTableView to display a QMap within a QList

Question

I am having a QList as follow:

QList< QMap<QString, QString> > x;

for example:

table(1) <name<name(1),ABC> >

table(1) <age<age(1),10> >

I would like to have the "name" and "age" as columns header and down to them the values "ABC" and "10". Next when I have:

table(1) <name<name(2),DFG> >

table(1) <age<age(2),20> >

the values "DFG" and "20" comes in the next row

so, how can I do make this display ?

Answer 1

To do this, you have to pass your data to a model and then you can use QTableView to display your data; to set a model for a table use the following sample:

// creating a 4*4 table
QStandardItemModel* table_model = new QStandardItemModel(4, 4);
for (int row = 0; row < 4; ++row) {
    for (int column = 0; column < 4; ++column) {
        QStandardItem *item = new QStandardItem((QString())); // you should set your data here (in this case as a string)
        table_model.setItem(row, column, item);
    }
}

then you should pass the model to a tableview:

QTableView table;
table.setModel(table_model);
table.show();
