.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
The TQPtrList class is a template class that provides a list.
|
|
.PP
|
|
TQValueList is an STL-compatible alternative to this class.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Define a template instance TQPtrList<X> to create a list that operates on pointers to X (X*).
|
|
.PP
|
|
The list class is indexable and has a current index and a current item. The first item corresponds to index position 0. The current index is -1 if the current item is 0.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Items are inserted with prepend(), insert() or append(). Items are removed with remove(), removeRef(), removeFirst() and removeLast(). You can search for an item using find(), findNext(), findRef() or findNextRef(). The list can be sorted with sort(). You can count the number of occurrences of an item with contains() or containsRef(). You can get a pointer to the current item with current(), to an item at a particular index position in the list with at() or to the first or last item with getFirst() and getLast(). You can also iterate over the list with first(), last(), next() and prev() (which all update current()). The list's deletion property is set with setAutoDelete().

TQPtrList has several member functions for traversing the list, but using a TQPtrListIterator can be more practical. Multiple list iterators may traverse the same list, independently of each other and of the current list item.
|
|
.PP
|
|
In the example above we make the call setAutoDelete(TRUE). Enabling auto-deletion tells the list to delete items that are removed. The default is to not delete items when they are removed but this would cause a memory leak in the example because there are no other references to the list items.
|
|
.PP
|
|
When inserting an item into a list only the pointer is copied, not the item itself, i.e. a shallow copy. It is possible to make the list copy all of the item's data (deep copy) when an item is inserted. insert(), inSort() and append() call the virtual function TQPtrCollection::newItem() for the item to be inserted. Inherit a list and reimplement newItem() to have deep copies.
|
|
.PP
|
|
When removing an item from a list, the virtual function TQPtrCollection::deleteItem() is called. TQPtrList's default implementation is to delete the item if auto-deletion is enabled.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The virtual function compareItems() can be reimplemented to compare two list items. This function is called from all list functions that need to compare list items, for instance remove(const type*). If you only want to deal with pointers, there are functions that compare pointers instead, for instance removeRef(const type*). These functions are somewhat faster than those that call compareItems().
|
|
.PP
|
|
List items are stored as \fCvoid*\fR in an internal QLNode, which also holds pointers to the next and previous list items. The functions currentNode(), removeNode(), and takeNode() operate directly on the QLNode, but they should be used with care. The data component of the node is available through QLNode::getData().
|
|
.PP
|
|
The QStrList class defined in ntqstrlist.h is a list of \fCchar*\fR. It reimplements newItem(), deleteItem() and compareItems(). (But see QStringList for a list of Unicode QStrings.)
|
|
.PP

|
|
.SH MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION
|
|
.SH "TQPtrList::TQPtrList ()"
|
|
Constructs an empty list.
|
|
.SH "TQPtrList::TQPtrList ( const TQPtrList<type> & list )"
|
|
Constructs a copy of \fIlist\fR.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Each item in \fIlist\fR is appended to this list. Only the pointers are copied (shallow copy).
|
|
.SH "TQPtrList::~TQPtrList ()"
|
|
Removes all items from the list and destroys the list.
|
|
.PP
|
|
All list iterators that access this list will be reset.
|
|
.PP
|
|
See also setAutoDelete().
|
|
.SH "void TQPtrList::append ( const type * item )"
|
|
Inserts the \fIitem\fR at the end of the list.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The inserted item becomes the current list item. This is equivalent to \fCinsert( count(), item )\fR.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fIitem\fR must not be 0.
|
|
.PP
|
|
See also insert(), current(), and prepend().
|
|
.PP
|
|
Examples:
|
|
.)l customlayout/border.cpp, customlayout/card.cpp, customlayout/flow.cpp, grapher/grapher.cpp, listviews/listviews.cpp, listviews/listviews.h, and qwerty/qwerty.cpp.
|
|
.SH "type * TQPtrList::at ( uint index )"
|
|
Returns a pointer to the item at position \fIindex\fR in the list, or 0 if the index is out of range.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Sets the current list item to this item if \fIindex\fR is valid. The valid range is \fC0..(count() - 1)\fR inclusive.
|
|
.PP
|
|
This function is very efficient. It starts scanning from the first item, last item, or current item, whichever is closest to \fIindex\fR.
|
|
.PP
|
|
See also current().
|
|
.PP
|
|
Examples:
|
|
.)l customlayout/border.cpp, customlayout/card.cpp, customlayout/flow.cpp, dirview/dirview.cpp, mdi/application.cpp, and qwerty/qwerty.cpp.
|
|
.SH "int TQPtrList::at () const"
|
|
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Returns the index of the current list item. The returned value is -1 if the current item is 0.
|
|
.PP
|
|
See also current().
|
|
.SH "bool TQPtrCollection::autoDelete () const"
|
|
Returns the setting of the auto-delete option. The default is FALSE.
|
|
.PP
|
|
See also setAutoDelete().
|
|
.SH "void TQPtrList::clear ()\fC [virtual]\fR"
|
|
Removes all items from the list.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The removed items are deleted if auto-deletion is enabled.
|
|
.PP
|
|
All list iterators that access this list will be reset.
|
|
.PP
|
|
See also remove(), take(), and setAutoDelete().
|
|
.PP
|
|
Reimplemented from TQPtrCollection.
|
|
.SH "int TQPtrList::compareItems ( TQPtrCollection::Item item1, TQPtrCollection::Item item2 )\fC [virtual protected]\fR"
|
|
This virtual function compares two list items.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Returns:
|
|
.TP
|
|
zero if \fIitem1\fR == \fIitem2\fR
|
|
.TP
|
|
nonzero if \fIitem1\fR != \fIitem2\fR
|
|
.PP
|
|
This function returns \fIint\fR rather than \fIbool\fR so that reimplementations can return three values and use it to sort by:
|
|
.TP
|
|
0 if \fIitem1\fR == \fIitem2\fR
|
|
.TP
|
|
> 0 (positive integer) if \fIitem1\fR > \fIitem2\fR
|
|
.TP
|
|
< 0 (negative integer) if \fIitem1\fR < \fIitem2\fR
|
|
.PP
|
|
inSort() requires that compareItems() is implemented as described here.
|
|
.PP
|
|
This function should not modify the list because some const functions call compareItems().
|
|
.PP
|
|
The default implementation compares the pointers.
|
|
.SH "uint TQPtrList::contains ( const type * item ) const"
|
|
Returns the number of occurrences of \fIitem\fR in the list.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The compareItems() function is called when looking for the \fIitem\fR in the list. If compareItems() is not reimplemented, it is more efficient to call containsRef().
|
|
.PP
|
|
This function does not affect the current list item.
|
|
.PP
|
|
See also containsRef() and compareItems().
|
|
.SH "uint TQPtrList::containsRef ( const type * item ) const"
|
|
Returns the number of occurrences of \fIitem\fR in the list.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Calling this function is much faster than contains() because contains() compares \fIitem\fR with each list item using compareItems(), whereas his function only compares the pointers.
|
|
.PP
|
|
This function does not affect the current list item.
|
|
.PP
|
|
See also contains().
|
|
.SH "uint TQPtrList::count () const\fC [virtual]\fR"
|
|
Returns the number of items in the list.
|
|
.PP
|
|
See also isEmpty().
|
|
.PP
|
|
Examples:
|
|
.)l customlayout/border.cpp, customlayout/card.cpp, customlayout/flow.cpp, dirview/dirview.cpp, grapher/grapher.cpp, mdi/application.cpp, and qwerty/qwerty.cpp.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Reimplemented from TQPtrCollection.
|
|
.SH "type * TQPtrList::current () const"
|
|
Returns a pointer to the current list item. The current item may be 0 (implies that the current index is -1).
|
|
.PP
|
|
See also at().
|
|
.SH "QLNode * TQPtrList::currentNode () const"
|
|
Returns a pointer to the current list node.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The node can be kept and removed later using removeNode(). The advantage is that the item can be removed directly without searching the list.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fBWarning:\fR Do not call this function unless you are an expert.
|
|
.PP
|
|
See also removeNode(), takeNode(), and current().
|
|
.SH "int TQPtrList::find ( const type * item )"
|
|
Finds the first occurrence of \fIitem\fR in the list.
|
|
.PP
|
|
If the item is found, the list sets the current item to point to the found item and returns the index of this item. If the item is not found, the list sets the current item to 0, the current index to -1, and returns -1.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The compareItems() function is called when searching for the item in the list. If compareItems() is not reimplemented, it is more efficient to call findRef().
|
|
.PP
|
|
See also findNext(), findRef(), compareItems(), and current().
|
|
.SH "int TQPtrList::findNext ( const type * item )"
|
|
Finds the next occurrence of \fIitem\fR in the list, starting from the current list item.
|
|
.PP
|
|
If the item is found, the list sets the current item to point to the found item and returns the index of this item. If the item is not found, the list sets the current item to 0, the current index to -1, and returns -1.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The compareItems() function is called when searching for the item in the list. If compareItems() is not reimplemented, it is more efficient to call findNextRef().
|
|
.PP
|
|
See also find(), findNextRef(), compareItems(), and current().
|
|
.SH "int TQPtrList::findNextRef ( const type * item )"
|
|
Finds the next occurrence of \fIitem\fR in the list, starting from the current list item.
|
|
.PP
|
|
If the item is found, the list sets the current item to point to the found item and returns the index of this item. If the item is not found, the list sets the current item to 0, the current index to -1, and returns -1.
|
|
.PP

Calling this function is much faster than findNext() because findNext() compares \fIitem\fR with each list item using compareItems(), whereas this function only compares the pointers.

.SH "int TQPtrList::findRef ( const type * item )"
|
|

.PP
|
|
If the item is found, the list sets the current item to point to the found item and returns the index of this item. If the item is not found, the list sets the current item to 0, the current index to -1, and returns -1.

Inserts the \fIitem\fR at its sorted position in the list.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The sort order depends on the virtual compareItems() function. All items must be inserted with inSort() to maintain the sorting order.
|

.PP
|
|
The inserted item becomes the current list item.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fIitem\fR must not be 0.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fBWarning:\fR Using inSort() is slow. An alternative, especially if you have lots of items, is to simply append() or insert() them and then use sort(). inSort() takes up to O(n) compares. That means inserting n items in your list will need O(n^2) compares whereas sort() only needs O(n*log n) for the same task. So use inSort() only if you already have a presorted list and want to insert just a few additional items.

Inserts the \fIitem\fR at position \fIindex\fR in the list.
|
|
.PP
|

.SH "void TQPtrCollection::setAutoDelete ( bool enable )"
|
|
Sets the collection to auto-delete its contents if \fIenable\fR is TRUE and to never delete them if \fIenable\fR is FALSE.
|
|
.PP
|
|
If auto-deleting is turned on, all the items in a collection are deleted when the collection itself is deleted. This is convenient if the collection has the only pointer to the items.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The default setting is FALSE, for safety. If you turn it on, be careful about copying the collection - you might find yourself with two collections deleting the same items.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Note that the auto-delete setting may also affect other functions in subclasses. For example, a subclass that has a remove() function will remove the item from its data structure, and if auto-delete is enabled, will also delete the item.

The item after the removed item becomes the new current list item if the removed item is not the last item in the list. If the last item is removed, the new last item becomes the current item. The current item is set to 0 if the list becomes empty.
