QListWIdget multiple selection

Qt Enthusiast

I have a QListWidget and I have enabling multiple selections using following line

QListWidget * listWidget =new QListWidget;
listWidget->setSelectionMode(QAbstractItemView::ExtendedSelection);

What is best way to handle multiple selection in QListWidget I am using following . Let me know if it is best way to do that

connect(listWIdget,::itemSelectionChanged(), this, handleMultipleSelectionInList())

handleMultipleSelectionInList() {
QList<QListWidgetItem *> QListWidget::selectedItems() const

foreach (QListWidgetItem* item, listWidget->selectedItems())
QString text = item->data(Qt::UserRole).toString();
// do necessary processing for text
}
}

is the best way to do that or can some one suggest me the better way to do that

That should be the way to go.
Doesn't it work for you?

Some one in my tool used the following and it was single selectiion
connect(d_ListWidget, SIGNAL(currentTextChanged(const QString&)), this, SLOT(currentTextChanged(const QString&)));

sp wanted to check which is the best way

Well, you cannot change the text in more than one item at the same time. And

currentTextChanged(const QString&)

is completely different to

itemSelectionChanged()
