calling QListWidgetItem setText() or setCheckState() on crashes Qt application
-
I have an application which needs to populate a QListWidget with entries. The list widget should have 2 data entries:
- Name
- Checkbox
Using this as some reference and adapting it to something similar to this to enable user altering the QListWidgetItem::setCheckedState(), I get the following:
MainWindow constructor
MainWindow::MainWindow(QWidget* parent) : QMainWindow(parent), ui(new Ui::MainWindow) { ui->setupUi(this); //... // Called AFTER ui is setup // Call stack for the method below is: initGui > connectSettings > connectDriveListChanges > updateDrivesList updateDrivesListWidget(); //... }later in constructor, this is called:
void MainWindow::updateDrivesListWidget() { //... // Get name of item QString name = QString("Local Disk (%1)").arg(s); bool enabled = attachedDriveList.value(s); // create item for QListWidget named listDriveInfo on form // QListWidgetItem* item = new QListWidgetItem(name, ui->listDriveInfo); <---crashes when setting text QListWidgetItem* item = new QListWidgetItem(ui->listDriveInfo); //set checkable and state item->setText(name); < -----tried as alternative to crash above item->setCheckState(enabled ? Qt::Checked : Qt::Unchecked); Qt::ItemFlags localFlags = item->flags(); localFlags = localFlags | Qt::ItemIsUserCheckable; item->setFlags(localFlags); // add item to list ui->listDriveInfo->addItem(item); //... }I have run also ran Run qmake, also cleaned and rebuilt the project (incase of some invalid reference to the listWidget) but it keeps crashing at this same spot.
Stepping through
item->setText(name);callstack, I see the application crashes at this point:qlistwidget.cpp (ref)
void QListModel::itemChanged(QListWidgetItem *item, const QVector<int> &roles) { const QModelIndex idx = index(item); emit dataChanged(idx, idx, roles); <-------crash when emitting signal }Call stack here at the

Update (not a solution), an extension only
from the signal emitted
emit dataChanged(idx, idx, roles);in the function (mentioned above)QListModel::itemChanged(), it reaches this line (shown below) via this signal-slot connection, but I have absolutely no idea how to trace it further, nor what ever thisqrefers to.void QListWidgetPrivate::_q_emitItemChanged(const QModelIndex &index) { Q_Q(QListWidget); emit q->itemChanged(listModel()->at(index.row())); }qis shown here to connect the signals & slots.Stack Trace here

Doing a few (rather simple) tests, I found the following (which confirms your suspicion)
Works: (but no check box) - this is expected to work
// create item QListWidgetItem* item = new QListWidgetItem(name, ui->listDriveInfo); // item->setText(name); // item->setFlags(item->flags() | Qt::ItemIsUserCheckable); // item->setCheckState(enabled ? Qt::Checked : Qt::Unchecked); // add item to list ui->listDriveInfo->addItem(item);this crashes on
setFlags()call// create item QListWidgetItem* item = new QListWidgetItem(name, ui->listDriveInfo); // item->setText(name); //set checkable and state Qt::ItemFlags localFlags = item->flags(); item->setFlags(localFlags | Qt::ItemIsUserCheckable); item->setCheckState(enabled ? Qt::Checked : Qt::Unchecked); // add item to list ui->listDriveInfo->addItem(item);but these 2 both work (without setting owning QListWidget)
// create item QListWidgetItem* item = new QListWidgetItem(name); // item->setText(name); //set checkable and state Qt::ItemFlags localFlags = item->flags(); item->setFlags(localFlags | Qt::ItemIsUserCheckable); item->setCheckState(enabled ? Qt::Checked : Qt::Unchecked); // add item to list ui->listDriveInfo->addItem(item);and
// create item QListWidgetItem* item = new QListWidgetItem(); // item->setText(name); //set checkable and state Qt::ItemFlags localFlags = item->flags(); item->setFlags(localFlags | Qt::ItemIsUserCheckable); item->setCheckState(enabled ? Qt::Checked : Qt::Unchecked); // add item to list ui->listDriveInfo->addItem(item);Testing:
I create a new application, did exactly the same (add a string and a checkbox) and that work 100%. Create a form, throw on a
QListWidgetand run it with this code.QListWidgetItem* item = new QListWidgetItem("New", ui->listWidget); item->setFlags(item->flags() | Qt::ItemIsUserCheckable); item->setCheckState(Qt::Unchecked); QListWidgetItem* item1 = new QListWidgetItem("New 1", ui->listWidget); item1->setFlags(item->flags() | Qt::ItemIsUserCheckable); item1->setCheckState(Qt::Unchecked); QListWidgetItem* item2 = new QListWidgetItem("New 2", ui->listWidget); item2->setFlags(item->flags() | Qt::ItemIsUserCheckable); item2->setCheckState(Qt::Unchecked); ui->listWidget->addItem(item); ui->listWidget->addItem(item1); ui->listWidget->addItem(item2); connect(ui->listWidget, &QListWidget::itemClicked, this, [this](QListWidgetItem * i) { // Get drive info from driveList int pos = ui->listWidget->row(i); // check state & set state bool active = i->checkState() == Qt::Checked; qDebug() << (active ? "enabled" : "disabled"); });So my question is, bug (on whose side) or some setting on my side? Thoughts on what to look for?
