Detailed Description

QRangeModelAdapter provides a type-safe and structure-aware C++ API around a C++ range and a QRangeModel. Modifications made to the C++ range using the adapter will inform clients of the QRangeModel about the changes. This makes sure that item views are updated, caches are cleaned, and persistent item indexes are invalidated and adapted correctly.

Construction and model ownership

QRangeModelAdapter has to be constructed from a C++ range. As with QRangeModel, the range can be provided by lvalue or rvalue reference, as a reference wrapper, and as a raw or smart pointer.

std::vector<int> data = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5};
QRangeModelAdapter adapter(&data);

Constructing the adapter from a range implicitly constructs a QRangeModel instance from that same range. Use model() to get it, and pass it to Qt Widgets or Qt Quick item views as usual.

QListView listView;
listView.setModel(adapter.model());

The adapter owns the model. QRangeModelAdapter is a value type, so it can be copied and moved. All copies share the same QRangeModel, which will be destroyed when the last copy of the adapter is destroyed.

If the adapter was created from an lvalue or rvalue reference, then the adapter and model will operate on a copy of the original range object. Otherwise, modifications made through the adapter or model will be written to the original range object. To get the updated range, use the range() function explicitly, or use the implicit conversion of the adapter to a the range.

QList<Book> books = {
    // ...
};
QRangeModelAdapter adapter(books);
tableView.setModel(adapter.model());

// show UI and where the user can modify the list

QList<Book> modifiedBooks = adapter;
// or
modifiedBooks = adapter.range();

To replace the entire range data with data from another (compatible) range, use the setRange() function or the assignment operator.

// reset to the original
adapter = books;
// or
adapter.setRange(books);

Accessing item data

The QRangeModelAdapter API provides type-safe read and write access to the range that the model operates on. The adapter API is based on the typical API for C++ containers and ranges, including iterators. To access individual rows and items, use at(), the corresponding subscript operator[], or data(). Which overloads of those functions are available depends on the range for which the adapter was constructed.

Reading item data as a QVariant

The data() function always returns a QVariant with the value stored at the specified position and role. In a list, an item can be accessed by a single integer value specifying the row:

QVariant listItem = listAdapter.data(row);

If the range is a table, then items are specified by row and column:

QVariant tableItem = tableAdapter.data(row, column);

If the range is a tree, then items are located using a path of rows, and a single column value:

QVariant treeItem = treeAdapter.data({path, to, branch}, column);

Using a single integer as the row provides access to the toplevel tree items.

QRangeModelAdapter listOfBooks(QList<Book>{
    // ~~~
});
QString bookTitle = listOfBooks.data(0, Book::TitleRole).toString();
Book multiRoleItem = listOfBooks.data(0).value<Book>();

If no role is specified, then the QVariant will hold the entire item at the position. Use the QVariant::fromValue() template function to retrieve a copy of the item.

Reading and writing using at()

That the data() function returns a QVariant makes it flexible, but removes type safety. For ranges where all items are of the same type, the at() function provides a type-safe alternative that is more compatible with regular C++ containers. As with data(), at() overloads exist to access an item at a row for lists, at a row/column pair for table, and a path/column pair for trees. However, at() always returns the whole item at the specified position; it's not possible to read an individual role values for an item.

As expected from a C++ container API, the const overloads of at() (and the corresponding subscript operator[]) provide immutable access to the value, while the mutable overloads return a reference object that a new value can be assigned to. Note that a QRangeModelAdapter operating on a const range behaves in that respect like a const QRangeModelAdapter. The mutable overloads are removed from the overload set, so the compiler will always select the const version. Trying to call a function that modifies a range will result in a compiler error, even if the adapter itself is mutable:

const QStringList strings = {"On", "Off"};
QRangeModelAdapter adapter(strings);
adapter.at(0) = "Undecided"; // compile error: return value of 'at' is const
adapter.insertRow(0); // compiler error: requirements not satisfied

The returned reference objects are wrappers that convert implicitly to the underlying type, have a get() function to explicitly access the underlying value, and an operator->() that provides direct access to const member functions. However, to prevent accidental data changes that would bypass the QAbstractItemModel notification protocol, those reference objects prevent direct modifications of the items.

Note: Accessing the reference object always makes a call to the model to get a copy of the value. This can be expensive; for performance critical access to data, store a copy.

Item access

If the range is represented as a list, then only the overloads taking a row are available.

QRangeModelAdapter list(std::vector<int>{1, 2, 3, 4, 5});
listView.setModel(list.model());

int firstValue = list.at(0); // == 1
list.at(0) = -1;
list.at(1) = list.at(4);

The const overload returns the item at that row, while the mutable overload returns a wrapper that implicitly converts to and from the value type of the list.

QRangeModelAdapter books(QList<Book>{
    // ~~~
});
Book firstBook = books.at(0);
Book newBook = {};
books.at(0) = newBook; // dataChanged() emitted

Assign a value to the wrapper to modify the data in the list. The model will emit dataChanged() for all roles.

When using the mutable overloads, you can also access the item type's const members using the overloaded arrow operator.

QString title = books.at(0)->title();

It is not possible to access non-const members of the item. Such modifications would bypass the adapter, which couldn't notify the model about the changes. To modify the value stored in the model, make a copy, modify the properties of the copy, and then write that copy back.

// books.at(0)->setRating(5); - not possible even though 'books' is not const
firstBook = books.at(0);
firstBook.setRating(5);
books.at(0) = firstBook; // dataChanged() emitted

This will make the model emit dataChanged() for this item, and for all roles.

If the range is represented as a table, then you can access an individual item by row and columns, using the at(row, column) overload. For trees, that overload gives access to top-level items, while the at(path, column) overload provides access to items nested within the tree.

Accessing an individual item in a table or tree is equivalent to accessing an item in a list.

QRangeModelAdapter table(std::vector<std::vector<double>>{
    {1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0},
    {6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0, 10.0},
});
tableView.setModel(table.model());

double value = table.at(0, 2); // value == 3.0
table.at(0, 2) = value * 2; // table[0, 2] == 6.0

If the range doesn't store all columns using the same data type, then at(row,column) returns a (a reference wrapper with a) QVariant holding the item.

QRangeModelAdapter table(std::vector<std::tuple<int, QString>>{
    // ~~~
});
int number = table.at(0, 0)->toInt();
QString text = table.at(0, 1)->toString();

Accessing rows in tables and trees

For tables and trees, the overloads of at() and subscript operator[] without the column parameter provide access to the entire row. The value returned by the const overloads will be a reference type that gives access to the row data. If that row holds pointers, then that reference type will be a view of the row, giving access to pointers to const items.

Table row access

The at(int) overload is still available, but it returns the entire table wor. This makes it possible to work with all the values in the row at once.

const auto &constTable = table;
const std::vector<double> &topRow = constTable.at(0);

As with items, the const overload provides direct access to the row type, while the mutable overload returns a wrapper that acts as a reference to the row. The wrapper provides access to const member functions using the overloaded arrow operator. To modify the values, write a modified row type back.

auto lastRow = table.at(table.rowCount() - 1);
lastRow = { 6.5, 7.5, 8.0, 9.0, 10 }; // emits dataChanged() for entire row

When assigning a new value to the row, then the model emits the dataChanged() signal for all items in the row, and for all roles.

Note: When using a row type with runtime sizes, such as a std::vector or a QList, make sure that the new row has the correct size.

Tree row access

Rows in trees are specified by a sequence of integers, one entry for each level in the tree. Note that in the following snippets, the Tree is a range holding raw row pointers, and that the adapter is created with an rvalue reference of that range. This gives the QRangeModel ownership over the row data.

QRangeModelAdapter tree = QRangeModelAdapter(Tree{
    new TreeRow{"Germany", 357002, Tree{
            new TreeRow("Bavaria", 70550)
        },
    },
    new TreeRow{"France", 632702},
});
treeView.setModel(tree.model());

auto germanyData = tree.at(0);
auto bavariaData = tree.at({0, 0});

The overload of at() taking a single row value provides access to the top-level rows, or items in the top-level rows.

auto germanyName = tree.at(0, 0);
auto bavariaSize = tree.at({0, 0}, 1);

The basic pattern for accessing rows and items in a tree is identical to accessing rows and items in a table. However, the adapter will make sure that the tree structure is maintained when modifying entire rows.

// deletes the old row - tree was moved in
tree.at({0, 0}) = new TreeRow{"Berlin", 892};

In this example, a new row object is created, and assigned to the first child of the first top-level item.

Iterator API

Use begin() and end() to get iterators over the rows of the model, or use ranged-for. If the range is a list of items, dereferencing the iterator will give access to item data.

for (const auto &book : std::as_const(books)) {
    qDebug() << "The book" << book.title()
             << "written by" << book.author()
             << "has" << book.rating() << "stars";
}

As with the const and mutable overloads of at(), a mutable iterator will dereference to a wrapper.

for (auto book : books) {
    qDebug() << "The book" << book->title()
             << "written by" << book->author()
             << "has" << book->rating() << "stars";

    Book copy = book;
    copy.setRating(copy.rating() + 1);
    book = copy;
}

Use the overloaded arrow operator to access const members of the item type, and assign to the wrapper to replace the value.

It the range is a table or tree, then iterating over the model will give access to the rows.

QRangeModelAdapter table(std::vector<std::pair<int, QString>>{
    // ~~~
});

for (const auto &row : std::as_const(table)) {
    qDebug() << "Number is" << row->first << "and string is" << row->second;
}

Both the const and the mutable iterator will dereference to a wrapper type for the row. This make sure that we can consistently iterate over each column, even if the underlying row type is not a range (e.g. it might be a tuple or gadget).

for (const auto &row : std::as_const(table)) {
    for (const auto &item : row) {
        qDebug() << item; // item is a QVariant
    }
}

When iterating over a mutable table we can overwrite the entire row.

for (auto row : table) {
    qDebug() << "Number is" << row->first << "and string is" << row->second;
    row = std::make_pair(42, u"forty-two"_s);
}

The model emits the dataChanged() signal for all items in all row, and for all roles.

for (auto row : table) {
    for (auto item : row) {
        item = 42;
    }
}

Iterating over the mutable rows allows us to modify individual items.

When iterating over a tree, the row wrapper has two additional member functions, hasChildren() and children(), that allow us to traverse the entire tree using iterators.

for (auto row : tree) {
    if (row.hasChildren()) {
        for (auto child : row.children()) {
            // ~~~
        }
    }
}

The object returned by children() is a QRangeModelAdapter operating on the same model as the callee, but all operations will use the source row index as the parent index.

Inserts a single column constructed from data before the column specified by before into all rows, and returns whether the insertion was successful. If before is the same value as columnCount(), then the column will be appended to each row.

If data is a single value, then the new entry in all rows will be constructed from that single value.

If data is a container, then the elements in that container will be used sequentially to construct the column for each subsequent row. If there are fewer elements in data than there are rows, then function wraps around and starts again from the first element.

Constraints

Participates in overload resolution only if Range has rows that support insertion of elements, and the elements can be constructed from the entries in data.

This is an overloaded function.

Inserts columns constructed from the elements in data before the column specified by before into all rows, and returns whether the insertion was successful. If before is the same value as columnCount(), then the column will be appended to each row.

If the elements in data are values, then the new entries in all rows will be constructed from those values.

If the elements in data are containers, then the entries in the outer container will be used sequentially to construct the new entries for each subsequent row. If there are fewer elements in data than there are rows, then the function wraps around and starts again from the first element.
