How to find which QTreeWidgetItem?

[aekilic]

Dear All

We create a QTreeWidget with a SQL query. We bring all the values like


QSqlQuery q;
q.exec("...");
while(q.next())
{
QTreeWidgetItem *cities = new QTreeWidgetItem(treeWidget);
cities->setText(0, tr(q.value(0).toString()));
}


There is no problem with this one. But in the query in some row I have child on cities items.

q.value(0).toString() is not same in every row, so is it possible to find which item on the tree that I could add the child?

You have to find the proper item based on the result of your query. Or maybe I don't understand the problem...

problem is like this,
query is like this
1 New York
2 Helena
3 Salt Lake City

the tree is like this
id city
1 New York
2 Helena
3 Salt Lake City

the three is like this. but in the query I get a row like
2.1 xxx
2.2 yyy which I had to show

2 Helena
2.1 xxx
2.2 yyy

Or could be 2.2.1 in the query...

Were I able to explain?

Not really. I know what a tree is, I don't know what you are having problems with.

[aekilic]

query is like this
1 New York
2 Helena
3 Salt Lake City
2.1 xxx 2
3.1 uuu 3
1.1 iiii 1
2.2 yyy 2
3.1.1 yuyu 3.1

I know from the query what is the parent but I dont know how can I put it under parent in the tree in a while(q.next)

[wysota]

Pass a pointer to the parent item to the constructor of the child item instead of a pointer to the tree widget.

[aekilic]

Normaly in table we could put a new row and a item like

insertRow, setitem...etc

is there a possible way to insert a tree like that?

[wysota]

There is QTreeWidgetItem::insertChild(), if it makes a difference for you not to pass the parent into the constructor of the child...

[aekilic]

then how can I find the index?

[wysota]

index of what? The child? You can use addChild() instead of insertChild() to append it to the end of the parent's child list.

Come on man... open the docs and at least browse through the API...

I think I was not able to explain,

It so clear that I create the tree

1
2
3
4


thats is ok. And from the query I get values like
1.2
1.1
4.1
1.1.1
1.1.4
1.1.2
1.1.3
not with an order. What I am planing is when I get a value like(4.1) this, I should find the index for 4 and addChild for this item?

The main problem is when I create the treewidget, we put every item with the same name. So after if you would like to add a child every item has the same name, so where to put? As I have said I should find 4 first ( that is my main problem) and after that i could either insert or add a child. And that is why I have asked you how can I find the index of the item

I am looking for the docs since morning but wasnt able find something helpfull.

You should look more carefully then.

QTreeWidget::findItems() to find by content, QTreeWidget::topLevelItem() to find by index.
