In a derived class from QAbstractTableModel I have impemented an user-role to give back the complete Object.

@
QVariant TmNotizTableModel::data(const QModelIndex &index, int role) const
{
int iRow,iCol, iMax;
CSubclass mySubclass;

mySubclass = mySubclassList.at(index.row());

if( role == JUTABLEVIEW_USER_ROLE_OBJECT){
QVariant v;
qVariantSetValue(v, mySubclass);
return v;
}
}

In a derived class from QTableView I reimplemented the edit - Method to do some general access handling, which needs the CBaic-Data. The Problem is that qvariant_cast doesn't give me the valid superclass object back.

@
bool JuTableView::edit (const QModelIndex & index, EditTrigger trigger, QEvent * event )
{
CBasic myCurrElement = qvariant_cast <CBasic> (index.model()->data(index, JUTABLEVIEW_USER_ROLE_OBJECT));
// myCurrElement is standard constructed and has no valid data

CSubclass myCurrSubclass = qvariant_cast <CSubclass> (index.model()->data(index, JUTABLEVIEW_USER_ROLE_OBJECT));
// Is valid including the elements inherited from CBasic. 

}
@

Here is a code snippet of the Class Architecture:

I have the following sample architecture:
@
class CBasic
{

public:
CBasic();

void init(void);

void setDbAdress(C_PKEY _dbadr){ dbAdress = _dbadr;};
C_PKEY getDbAdress(void){ return dbAdress;};

QByteArray getDbStream(void){return myDbStream;};
void setDbStream(QByteArray _myDbStream){myDbStream = _myDbStream;};
void setDbStream(const char *data, int iSize){setDbStream(QByteArray(data, iSize));};

int getUserId(void){return iUserId;};
void setUserId(int _iUserId){ iUserId = _iUserId;};

protected:

C_PKEY dbAdress;
QByteArray myDbStream;
int iUserId;

};

Q_DECLARE_METATYPE(CBasic);

class CSubclass : plublic CBasic
{

public:
CSubclass();

void init(void);

void setValue1(int _iValue1){ iValue1 = _iValue1;};
int getValue1(void){ return iValue1;};

protected:

int iValue1;
};

Q_DECLARE_METATYPE(CSubclass);

Do you have any ideas? Best regards,
