Casting QStringList to QList<QVariant>

[Valheru]

Can I simply cast this using a static/dynamic/const cast? If so, what is the syntax for it?

QStringList is a QList<QString>. But it is not possible cast it to QList<QVariant>. That's two template containers containing different types.

Edit: BTW, see qCopy. Maybe it suits for your need:

QStringList stringList;
stringList << "one" << "two" << "three";
 
QVector<QVariant> vector(strings.size());
qCopy(stringList.begin(), stringList.end(), vector.begin()); // works because QVariant has  
                                                             // a constructor taking QString
 
QList<QVariant> variantList = vector.toList(); // if you really need a list

QStringList stringList;
stringList << "one" << "two" << "three";

QVector<QVariant> vector(strings.size());
qCopy(stringList.begin(), stringList.end(), vector.begin()); // works because QVariant has  
                                                             // a constructor taking QString

QList<QVariant> variantList = vector.toList(); // if you really need a list

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode

The only thing you can do is:

QList<QVariant> variantlist;
QStringList slist;
foreach(QString s, slist){
  variantlist << s;
}

QList<QVariant> variantlist;
QStringList slist;
foreach(QString s, slist){
  variantlist << s;
}
