QGridStarLayout - A Qt grid layout identical to WPF's star sized grid

Hey folks, I've had to go about designing my own layout that worked as a clone of WPF's Grid with "star sizing" capabilities, so I've done just that.

For more information on how star sizing works, please refer to this Stack Overflow post:

Example usage:

Code:

---

QGridDefinition mainGridDef;
 
mainGridDef.RowDefinition(0.03f);
mainGridDef.RowDefinition(0.08f);
mainGridDef.RowDefinition(0.94f);
mainGridDef.RowDefinition(0.08f);
mainGridDef.RowDefinition(0.03f);
 
mainGridDef.ColumnDefinition(0.03f);
mainGridDef.ColumnDefinition(0.2f);
mainGridDef.ColumnDefinition(0.03f);
mainGridDef.ColumnDefinition();
 
QGridStarLayout *mainGrid = new QGridStarLayout(mainGridDef);
 
mainGrid->addWidget(new QPushButton("Test"), 1, 1);
mainGrid->addWidget(new QPushButton("Test"), 3, 1);
 
QGridDefinition subGridDef;
 
subGridDef.RowDefinition(0.03f);
subGridDef.RowDefinition(0.15f);
subGridDef.RowDefinition();
subGridDef.RowDefinition(0.03f);
 
subGridDef.ColumnDefinition(0.2f);
subGridDef.ColumnDefinition(0.5f);
subGridDef.ColumnDefinition(0.2f);
 
QGridStarLayout *subGrid = new QGridStarLayout(subGridDef);
 
subGrid->addWidget(new QScrollBar(Qt::Orientation::Horizontal), 1, 1);
 
mainGrid->addLayout(subGrid, 0, 3, 5);
 
centralWidget()->setLayout(mainGrid);

Furthermore, if you see where the layout can be optimized, feel free to fork the repo and apply any necessary changes.

Nice work!

Though I would recommend to follow Qt's style for naming methods, i.e. start with a lower case letter and probably name them in a way they say what they are doing.
E.g. addRowDefinition() if it adds the definition of a new row. At least that is what it looks like.

Also it is usually not a good idea to call a custom class QSomething, that makes it look like a class from Qt and gets people confused when they can't find it in the documentation.

Thank you for the suggestions! I'll fix the naming conventions soon.
