QFileSystemModel crash when rename

stereomatching

[code]
#include <QtCore>
#include <QtGui>

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
QApplication app( argc, argv );

QFileSystemModel model;    
QString const rootPath = "E:/file_test/very big";

QTableView view;
view.setModel(&model);
view.setRootIndex(model.setRootPath(rootPath));    

QSplitter splitter;
splitter.addWidget(&view);   
splitter.show();    

return app.exec();

}
[/code]

Under the folder "very big" consist 8448 jpg, when I using a tool(Bulk rename utility)
to rename the jpg under "very big", the program will crash.
How could I stop the self updating function of QFileSystemModel?
Thanks

1 : I find out the QDirModel will not update until you call "refresh"

2 : even I do not setup the model for the view, rename the files will affect
the main thread(GUI) seriously.No wonder why even I rename the files
on another thread, the GUI still stall.

[code]
int main( int argc, char **argv )
{
QApplication app( argc, argv );

QFileSystemModel model;

QString const rootPath = "E:/file_test/very big";
model.setRootPath(rootPath);       

QTableView view;
//I haven't set any model for The view, but the program still
//crash if I rename 8448 of my jpg files by other program    

QSplitter splitter;
splitter.addWidget(&view);   
splitter.show();

return app.exec&#40;&#41;;

}
[/code]

There are still more than 1XX pages of the model/view architecture I have to studied(advanced Qt programming)
I hope I could know how to prevent the automatic "refresh" function of the QFileSystemModel after
I finish the chapter 4, 5, 6 in the book

QDirModel is not a good solution, but looks like it could solve my problem for now.

Never expect that customize the model/view of Qt4 could be so complicated(2XX pages to study)
Maybe a little bit difficult for a newbie like me?

The book is called Advanced Qt Programming. How did you figure that that is suitable for a beginner with Qt?

bq. The book is called Advanced Qt Programming. How did you figure that that is suitable for a beginner with Qt?

So it is not suitable for a beginner?But this book explain model/view much more detail than
"Foundation of Qt development", although "Foundation of Qt development" teach us how to
deal with table model/view but no tree model/view.

Whatever, when I use multithread to rename the files with QFileSystemModel,
the GUI still stall and the use of memory will keep raising(memory leak?),but QDirModel
would not have the situations like QFileSystemModel.

Is this a bug of QFileSystemModel?Or a normal behavior?
