Is there somewhere a visual inheritance tree of the Qt classes?

Would be nice for study. 🙂
Something like this but than all inclusive, and maybe interactive or something?
Also, as a little side question: Can one actually study how the classes are made? Are they public, or do we only have headers?

Hi,
The Qt sources are available at https://code.qt.io

That would be a very, very large tree... :-D
I haven't seen one, sorry.

@SGaist's link is the official repo. Here is an interactive repo: https://code.woboq.org/qt5/qtbase/src/corelib/kernel/qobject.h.html

However, when I just checked, for example; the QLayout inherits QObject, but I don't see it in the list "Inherited By:" in the QObject Class documentation.Are these list in the docs just not complete or is there are reason why this is with QLayout?
Where can I find the complete list?

Do share your results with the community when you make it

Older versions of Qt had documentation that spanned across modules: https://doc.qt.io/qt-5.9/qobject.html
I'm not sure if the change in recent versions was intentional or not.

It looks like in the current version of the docs, the Inherited By: field shows the classes in the same module, but doesn't show the classes in other modules.
In your example, QObject is in the Qt Core module but QLayout is in the Qt Widgets module.

Probably related to the recent QDoc changes that now involves
clangfor creating the documentation. Maybe a bug? -
