<![CDATA[Find an occurrence in a QList]]>Hello,
im looking to find a way of an occurance of a string inside a QList<Qstring>.
this is what i did:

i declare a string str1
i have a QList of strings List1 where i stock some QStrings that i receive.
and i use the the methode contains as i do here: list1.contains(str1)
but i dont know if i it returns true for the exact match or just a substring .

thank you.

QString strInstance = QString("Quick Test");

listOStrings.append(strInstance);

listOStrings.contains("Quick") // Returns False
listOStrings.contains("quick test") // Returns False
listOStrings.contains("Quick Test") // Returns True
listOStrings.contains(strInstance) // Returns True

Hope this helps.
