Unsolved Updating widget with QSqlTableModel
-
Hello,
I have a database that look like this :
And my goal is to make a custom widget out of each row of the database
For that I decided to use a QSqlTableModel and for each custom widget that I make, create a QWidgetMapper in whose purpose is to map a specific row to the QLabels of my custom widget like so
m_dataMapper->addMapping(m_descriptionLabel, model->fieldIndex("description"), "text"); m_dataMapper->addMapping(m_tagLabel, model->fieldIndex("tag"), "text"); m_dataMapper->setCurrentIndex(row);
In my application, I allow the user to modify those label using QDialog, but one thing I am not able to do is update the database using my model and force it to update automatically the QLabels of my custom widget. Should I use a delegate ? What am I doing wrong

@Harsaith said in Updating widget with QSqlTableModel:
Should I use a delegate ?

@VRonin
But the delegate will now update the widgets unless and told force him to call setText() on the QLabels even though those qlabels are mapped to the model, am I correct ? -
A delegate is not a widget. It paints itself using a
paint()
method that gets data directly from the model
