QVariant comparator

[jasig]

Hi,

I'm declaring a class as given below

@
class Foo : public Object
{
Q_OBJECT
public:
Foo(Object* parent = 0);
virtual ~Foo();

 void setName(QString name);
 QString name();

private:
QString m_name;
};

inline bool operator==(const Foo& lhs, const Foo& rhs)
{
qDebug() << "entered Foo == operator";
return (lhs.name() == rhs.name());
}

inline bool operator<(const NameProperty& lhs, const NameProperty& rhs)
{
return lhs.name() < rhs.name();
}

Q_DECLARE_METATYPE(Foo*)
@

and registered it this way

qRegisterMetaType<Foo*>();
QMetaType::registerComparators<Foo*>();

however the equality operator never get's called when i compare two QVariants that contain Foo*.

Please advise what I'm doing wrong.

Hi,

AFAIK, you are providing comparators for Foo not Foo*, so it's comparing the pointer values.

On a side note, please provide correct code sample, this one doesn't allow to test your problem
