How to copy a linklist

[Zlatomir]

QLinkedList has a copy constructor witch initialize a new list with the shared elements of your original list and copy the list only if you modify the "copy" (copy-on-write)

Thanks for your quick responce my current bit of code is

ceguSubWidget::ceguSubWidget(QLinkedList<tabptr> tabs)
{
    tablist = tabs;
    setAttribute(Qt::WA_DeleteOnClose);
    isUntitled = true;
}

ceguSubWidget::ceguSubWidget(QLinkedList<tabptr> tabs)
{
    tablist = tabs;
    setAttribute(Qt::WA_DeleteOnClose);
    isUntitled = true;
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

Is that correct or incorrect.

Thanks

If you use the list to store pointers to type the copy of the list doesn't copy the objects pointed by the pointers stored in the list (it copy the pointers)

If tabptr is a type defined by you, code a copy constructor witch must do a deep copy (copy of objects the pointers points to)

LE: i think this is your problem: you end up with two pointers (two copy, one in each copy of the list) per each object, if you modify the object by de-reference one pointer, the second pointer will point to the same modified value (not the one before modification)

I created a copy constuctor and it working now.

Thanks for your help
