Detailed Description

This class allows several methods of accessing the values of a container held within a QVariant. An instance of QSequentialIterable can be extracted from a QVariant if it can be converted to a QVariantList.

 QList<int> intList = {7, 11, 42};

 QVariant variant = QVariant::fromValue(intList);
 if (variant.canConvert<QVariantList>()) {
     QSequentialIterable iterable = variant.value<QSequentialIterable>();
     // Can use foreach:
     foreach (const QVariant &v, iterable) {
         qDebug() << v;
     }
     // Can use C++11 range-for:
     for (const QVariant &v : iterable) {
         qDebug() << v;
     }
     // Can use iterators:
     QSequentialIterable::const_iterator it = iterable.begin();
     const QSequentialIterable::const_iterator end = iterable.end();
     for ( ; it != end; ++it) {
         qDebug() << *it;
     }
 }

The container itself is not copied before iterating over it.

[alias] QSequentialIterable::const_iterator

The QSequentialIterable::const_iterator allows iteration over a container in a QVariant.

A QSequentialIterable::const_iterator can only be created by a QSequentialIterable instance, and can be used in a way similar to other stl-style iterators.

 QList<int> intList = {7, 11, 42};

 QVariant variant = QVariant::fromValue(intList);
 if (variant.canConvert<QVariantList>()) {
     QSequentialIterable iterable = variant.value<QSequentialIterable>();
     // Can use foreach:
     foreach (const QVariant &v, iterable) {
         qDebug() << v;
     }
     // Can use C++11 range-for:
     for (const QVariant &v : iterable) {
         qDebug() << v;
     }
     // Can use iterators:
     QSequentialIterable::const_iterator it = iterable.begin();
     const QSequentialIterable::const_iterator end = iterable.end();
     for ( ; it != end; ++it) {
         qDebug() << *it;
     }
 }

[alias, since 6.0] QSequentialIterable::iterator

The QSequentialIterable::iterator allows iteration over a container in a QVariant.

A QSequentialIterable::iterator can only be created by a QSequentialIterable instance, and can be used in a way similar to other stl-style iterators.

This typedef was introduced in Qt 6.0.

void QSequentialIterable::addValue(const QVariant &value, QSequentialIterable::Position position = Unspecified)

Adds value to the container, at position, if possible.

QVariant QSequentialIterable::at(qsizetype idx) const

Returns the value at position idx in the container.

void QSequentialIterable::removeValue(QSequentialIterable::Position position = Unspecified)

Removes a value from the container, at position, if possible.

void QSequentialIterable::set(qsizetype idx, const QVariant &value)

Sets the element at position idx in the container to value.
