QTableView with custom QHeaderView

[xbase]

i have started with reimplementing paintEvent ( QPaintEvent * event ) but when i try to create a QPainter as shown in the documentation the console says:

QPainter::begin: Widget painting can only begin as a result of a paintEvent

but it is inside paint event.

code

HeaderView::HeaderView(Qt::Orientation orientation, QWidget * parent) : QHeaderView(orientation, parent)
{
}


void HeaderView::paintEvent ( QPaintEvent * event )
{
QPainter painter(this);
painter.drawRect(event->rect());
}
any idea?

[xbase]

ok this problem is solved. used

QPainter painter(viewport());
instead.

will try to reimplement the QHeaderView. if anyone has an idea on how this could be done otherwhise let me know please. i thought letting table items be tables of its own so that one would automaticly have more headers. the only problem is then how to sort and how to design in model/view architekture. any advices?

tnx
