Essentially QStringList is a QValueList of QString objects. Unlike QStrList, which stores pointers to characters, QStringList holds real QString objects. It is the class of choice whenever you work with Unicode strings. QStringList is part of the \link qtl.html Qt Template Library\endlink. Like QString itself, QStringList objects are implicitly shared, so passing them around as value-parameters is both fast and safe. Strings can be added to a list using append(), operator+=() or operator<<(), e.g. \code QStringList fonts; fonts.append( "Times" ); fonts += "Courier"; fonts += "Courier New"; fonts << "Helvetica [Cronyx]" << "Helvetica [Adobe]"; \endcode String lists have an iterator, QStringList::Iterator(), e.g. \code for ( QStringList::Iterator it = fonts.begin(); it != fonts.end(); ++it ) { cout << *it << ":"; } cout << endl; // Output: // Times:Courier:Courier New:Helvetica [Cronyx]:Helvetica [Adobe]: \endcode Many Qt functions return string lists by value; to iterate over these you should make a copy and iterate over the copy. You can concatenate all the strings in a string list into a single string (with an optional separator) using join(), e.g. \code QString allFonts = fonts.join( ", " ); cout << allFonts << endl; // Output: // Times, Courier, Courier New, Helvetica [Cronyx], Helvetica [Adobe] \endcode You can sort the list with sort(), and extract a new list which contains only those strings which contain a particular substring (or match a particular regular expression) using the grep() functions, e.g. \code fonts.sort(); cout << fonts.join( ", " ) << endl; // Output: // Courier, Courier New, Helvetica [Adobe], Helvetica [Cronyx], Times QStringList helveticas = fonts.grep( "Helvetica" ); cout << helveticas.join( ", " ) << endl; // Output: // Helvetica [Adobe], Helvetica [Cronyx] \endcode Existing strings can be split into string lists with character, string or regular expression separators, e.g. \code QString s = "Red\tGreen\tBlue"; QStringList colors = QStringList::split( "\t", s ); cout << colors.join( ", " ) << endl; // Output: // Red, Green, Blue \endcode */ /*! \fn QStringList::QStringList() Creates an empty string list. */ /*! \fn QStringList::QStringList( const QStringList& l ) Creates a copy of the list \a l. This function is very fast because QStringList is implicitly shared. In most situations this acts like a deep copy, for example, if this list or the original one or some other list referencing the same shared data is modified, the modifying list first makes a copy, i.e. copy-on-write. In a threaded environment you may require a real deep copy \omit see \l QDeepCopy\endomit. */ /*! \fn QStringList::QStringList (const QString & i) Constructs a string list consisting of the single string \a i.
