Automatic update of listView and c++ model
-
Hi,
I'm trying to write a c++ model like the one describe in the example (Animal model). I would like to add a function to modified the model. I've add a Q_INVOKABLE function in the AnimalModel class.@ void AnimalModel::changeData(int number,QString type, QString size)
{
if ( number >= 0 && number < m_animals.count())
{
qDebug() <<"number:"<<number << " new type : "<< type<<" new size : "<< size;
m_animals[number].m_type = type;
m_animals[number].m_size = size;
emit dataChanged(index(0),index(m_animals.count()));
}
}@I see my message in the warning window but my view never update. I've read Model subclassing reference but I haven't found a thing to help me.
Thanks for reading me.

No idea what your AnimalModel is and where it comes from, but it looks to me like you are changing your underlying data structure (m_animals) and then tell the view that the model has changed. But you never update the model (or tell the model that the underlying data has changed).

Animal model is the one defined "here":http://doc-snapshot.qt-project.org/4.8/declarative-modelviews-abstractitemmodel.html
I've only change the Animal class to have all membres public.My model is a QList of Animal, which are modified line 6 and 7 and I guess I warn the model is updated line 8.

Sorry, that was a very confusing response from me...
Now that I see the code, I realise there's nothing wrong with your code, except for one tiny problem, and that is that when you emit dataChanged the second argument is out-of-range. It should be:
@emit dataChanged(index(0), index(m_animals.count() - 1));@
But that will invalidate the entire model, so really, you should just do:
@emit dataChanged(index(number), index(number));@

That's what I tried first but it didn't work, so I changed it just to see.
If I did all correctly I should raise it as a bug ?

Are you sure? I tried it, and it works just fine for me.

Yeah you're right that's working... I don't konw why this was'nt working the first time.
Thanks a lot.
