QList of pointers - how to prevent memory leak.
-
Good morning,
I came to the point where my knowledge is not sufficient so I'd like to ask before I implement something stupid.On the frontend side I have a tabwidget, where each tab has QTableView.
For each of those table views I have QSortFilterProxyModel on top of QSqlTableModel presenting different tables from sqlite db.On the backend side I have single QObject based class for managing those and interacting with db.
Now the dubious part:
I figured that backend will store internallyQList<QSortFilterProxyModel*> mModelList
as to the outside world only those models should be returned (well, pointers to them).
The creation process goes (in simplified form, without setting up the header view and such):QSqlTableModel *newView = new QSqlTableModel(this,db); newView->setTable(someTableName); newView->select(); QSoftFilterProxyModel *listItem = new QSortFilterProxyModel(this); listItem->setSource(newView); mModelList.append(listItem);
The question is: since all the objects have parent, are there any extra steps I need to do (like
delete
) on any of those or (as I assume but I might be wrong) will all the items be properly destroyed once the parent class is destroyed?
Second question is: is my way of handling this at all sound or is there a better and more canonical approach?Many thanks in advance.
Artur.
