QListView and QStringListModel

Good evening,
I am developing an application where I have to process a bunch of image files.
To load the file's list, the user have to press a load button and a QFileDialog is created, then I populate a QStringList model with the file's paths.
To show the list I use a QListView
Here the code:

Code:

---

QFileDialog fileDialog;
fileDialog.setWindowTitle(tr("Open Directory"));
fileDialog.setFileMode(QFileDialog::DirectoryOnly);
 
if (fileDialog.exec() == QDialog::Accepted)
  {
     QStringList files = getImageFiles(fileDialog.selectedFiles().first());
 
      // Populate the model
      m_model->setStringList(files);
 
      // and pass it to the view
      ui->listView->setModel(m_model);
   }
 
QStringList MainWindow::getImageFiles(const QString& path) const
{
    QStringList result;
    QDir root(path);
 
    QStringList dirs = root.entryList(QDir::AllDirs | QDir::NoDotAndDotDot, QDir::Name);
 
    foreach (const QString& dir, dirs)
    {
        result.append(getImageFiles(root.filePath(dir)));
    }
 
    QStringList files = root.entryList(QString("*.jpg").split(";"), QDir::Files, QDir::Name);
 
    foreach (const QString& file, files)
    {
        result.append(root.filePath(file));
    }
 
    return result;
}

Now in the view I have a list of full paths, but I would only show the files names instead of full path while keeping the full paths in the model
How can I do it? I would have an help on it.
Thanx in advance

Derive a custom model from QStringListModel, and override the data() method. In the handler for DisplayRole, use QFileInfo to retrieve the file name only from the path (using QFileInfo::fileName()) and return that as the QVariant. For all other data roles, call the QStringListModel base class data() method.

For your processing where you need the entire path, you can implement a handler for Qt::UserRole in your custom model. For that role, you call the base class data() method with the Qt::DisplayRole role, which will return the entire path string. In your list-handling code, you would call into the model with the UserRole when you need the full path.
