[Solved] The "best" way to programmatically refresh a QSqlQueryModel when the content of the query changes

[ZapB]

Another way is to prepare a database view of your complex query and then use a QSqlTableModel on the view. This class does expose an exec() method to re-run the query.

[ZapB]

Oops sorry, the method is actually select() not exec(). /me should check the docs.

QSqlTableModel::select() use setQuery( QString, QSqlDatabase ) method refresh contents. I guess you could do it the same way.

Hi all
I have similar question I am use QTableView + QSqlQuery when I set query at first time I allow fetch only first 10 rows from query, after that according user decides I can fetch next few rows, but my QTableView is not refreshed after fetch. I can't use setQuery because I do not what run sql yet one time to get result that I already have.
I try to use something like this
@emit dataChanged(createIndex(OldRowCnt, 1), createIndex(RowCount, HeaderCount));@
but this has no result

thank you for future help )

beginInsertRows solve my problem, I am call it after fetch

@bool cOciQModel::fetch(int Cnt, bool SilentMode) {
if (RowCount && !query->seek(RowCount - 1)) {
LastError = QString("Can't goto [%1] position").arg(QString::number(RowCount - 1));
return false;
}
int OldRowCnt = RowCount;
int Count = Cnt + 1;
while (--Count && !AllDataFetched) {
AllDataFetched = !query->next();
if (!AllDataFetched) {
++RowCount;
}
}

if (!SilentMode) {
beginInsertRows(QModelIndex(), OldRowCnt, RowCount);
endInsertRows();
}

return true;

}@

How I update QSqlQueryModel:

QString queryStr = model->query().executedQuery();
model->clear();
model->query().clear();
model->setQuery(queryStr);

@iamantony how to do it with Python?

[jsulm]

@Gelo Replace -> with .

[A Former User]

@jsulm

QString queryStr = model->query().executedQuery();
model->clear();
model->query().clear();
model->setQuery(queryStr);

is that c++? for what is QString?

[jsulm]

@Gelo Yes, it is C++.
QString is a Qt data type for strings - no need to write it in Python.
