How to create QList of arrays
-
Hello, I need to create a QList of arrays. Following is what I have come up with. Does this look ok? Should I call _delete _ here or not? Is there a shorthand for this other than the loop?
@
QList<unsigned short *>SplitData;
unsigned short *pTemp;
for( unsigned int j=0; j<NumGauges; j++ )
{
pTemp = new unsigned short[BufSize];
SplitData.append( pTemp );
delete pTemp;
}@Thanks.

Thanks mcosta. What if the above were inside a function, and the list SplitData were passed into the function. Would the list items still be available after the function returned? Or not since the pointers have gone out of scope?
I should 'delete' each element later after I have used it, right? I suppose clearing the list will not take care of that.

Hi,
Depends on how you call the function. If you have a pointer that goes out of scope you loose the access to the memory segment you just allocated. In your case you have a copy of the pointer in your list so you still can access (and thus delete) it.
qDeleteAll to the rescue :)
Hope it helps
