QSqlTableModel and insertRecord()

I'm trying use a Model / View framework. I know how to make model and how to display data with QTableView and how to use QDataWidgetMapper. But I have problem with QDataWidgetMapper when I want to insert new record. Actualy I use something like this:

Code:

---

QSqlRecord record = model->record();
 
    // append new record
    model->insertRecord( -1, record );
 
    mapper = new QDataWidgetMapper();
    mapper->setModel( _model );
    mapper->addMapping( )
    mapper->addMapping( )
    mapper->addMapping( )
 
    // HERE IS MY QUESTION
    mapper->setCurrentIndex( model->rowCount() - 1 );

---

I use

Code:

---

mapper->setCurrentIndex( model->rowCount() - 1 );

---

but rowCount doesn't have a true row count. How can I insert a record and set up an edit on this empty new record in safe way?

Are model, the one you insert to, and _model, the one your mapper looks at, the same object? Is that just a typo?

It is a typo.

What is the editStrategy() on the model?

This code:

Code:

---

#include <QtCore>
#include <QtSql>
#include <QDebug>
 
 
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    QCoreApplication app(argc, argv);
 
 
    QSqlDatabase db = QSqlDatabase::addDatabase("QSQLITE");
    db.setDatabaseName(":memory:");
    db.open();
    QSqlQuery query;
    query.exec("CREATE TABLE test (a INTEGER, b VARCHAR(10))");
    query.exec("INSERT INTO test VALUES (1, 'One')");
    query.exec("INSERT INTO test VALUES (2, 'Two')");
    query.exec("INSERT INTO test VALUES (3, 'Three')");
 
 
    QSqlTableModel model;
    model.setTable("test");
    model.select();
 
//    model.setEditStrategy(QSqlTableModel::OnRowChange);
    model.setEditStrategy(QSqlTableModel::OnManualSubmit);
 
    qDebug() << "Starting with" << model.rowCount();
    for (int i = 0; i < 20; ++i) {
        QSqlRecord record = model.record();
        qDebug() << i << model.rowCount();
        model.insertRecord(-1, record);
    }
    return app.exec();
}

Works as expected with one value and not the other.

Thanks for your reply. I think that I now know how to work with Model / View Framework.
