Simple Table View

[ruda]

I'm translating a little app that I made in PHP-Gtk to Qt. I was going well till I had to do what in Gtk is a GtkTreeView, but in Qt I guess it's a QTableView or a QTableWidget, I don't know which one to use. Basically it has 3 columns (Accounts, Password, Group Id) and must have the option to sort the items asc/desc. Here is a pic of my app:



If you double-click any item, the entries below will be filled according to the item you cliked.
If you click Prev/Next buttons, it will clear the list and add the new items.

I'm really lost because:
1. I dont know what is better to my case: QTableView or QTableWidget
2. I couldn't test any of both, since I didn't find any simple example to newbies

So... could someone show me how to do a simple table like in the pic? All the examples I found were difficult.

Thanks

PS: (I just want the table, forget the other widgets)

Where is the data in the table coming from? Is it fixed or variable?

From a variable. A friend told me to use QTreeView instead of QTables, but I'm still lost...

You can use either. The QTableView can source its data from any Qt data model (you might look a QStandardItemModel). The QTableWidget is a QTableView with its own internal data model. Search for Model/View Programming in the Qt documentation to get an overview of how this works.

To use the QTableWidget need to insert your values using QTableWidget::setItem(). You create and remove rows in the table with QTableWidget::insertRow() and QTableWidget::removeRow(). You enable sorting with setSortingEnabled(). You can used the currentChanged() signal from the QTableWidget's selectionModel() to trigger updates of the other widgets.
