QListView ContextMenu

Hi,
I have a QListView and I wanted to set its context menu so I started with delete action. I need to get the selected item's data to be able to delete the item from the model. but when I do:

void Music::albumContextMenu()
{
QAction *deleteAction = new QAction("Delete",ui->albumView);

ui->albumView->addAction(deleteAction);
ui->albumView->setContextMenuPolicy(Qt::ActionsContextMenu);

connect(deleteAction,SIGNAL(triggered(bool)),SLOT(albumDeleteAction()));

}

void Music::albumDeleteAction()
{
QModelIndex index= ui->albumView->selectedIndexes();
int indexNumber = index.data(Qt::UserRole+1).toInt();
...
...
}

But the selectedIndexes() function is private.
How should I do this?
is there a better way to do this?

You should go through the selection model:

QModelIndexList indexes = ui->albumView->selectionModel()->selectedIndexes();
if(!indexes.isEmpty())
{
   int indexNumber = indexes.front().data(Qt::UserRole+1).toInt();
   ...
}
