I have a list of files like:
007_601_1 007_601_2 007_601_3 007_601_10 007_601_11 007_601_12When I sort it using QDir::Name I get the following order:
007_601_1 007_601_10 007_601_11 007_601_12 007_601_2 007_601_3However, I need the order as mentioned in the first file list. Is there a way to sort like this or do I need to write my own piece of code which does it?

AFAIK functions like QDir::entryList sort file names only in alphabetical orders.
If you want to achieve different results you will need to write your own sorting code.

Is QCollator::compare a good option for this? I mean, I simply implement a sorting algorithm based on the result from QCollator::compare. Usually the number of files will be limited to ~3000.
