Detailed Description

The QAbstractItemModel class provides the abstract interface for item model classes.

\inmodule QtCore

The QAbstractItemModel class defines the standard interface that item models must use to be able to interoperate with other components in the model/view architecture. It is not supposed to be instantiated directly. Instead, you should subclass it to create new models.

The QAbstractItemModel class is one of the \l{Model/View Classes} and is part of Qt's \l{Model/View Programming}{model/view framework}. It can be used as the underlying data model for the item view elements in QML or the item view classes in the Qt Widgets module.

If you need a model to use with an item view such as QML's List View element or the C++ widgets QListView or QTableView, you should consider subclassing QAbstractListModel or QAbstractTableModel instead of this class.

The underlying data model is exposed to views and delegates as a hierarchy of tables. If you do not make use of the hierarchy, then the model is a simple table of rows and columns. Each item has a unique index specified by a QModelIndex.

Every item of data that can be accessed via a model has an associated model index. You can obtain this model index using the index() function. Each index may have a sibling() index; child items have a parent() index.

Each item has a number of data elements associated with it and they can be retrieved by specifying a role (see \l Qt::ItemDataRole) to the model's data() function. Data for all available roles can be obtained at the same time using the itemData() function.

Data for each role is set using a particular \l Qt::ItemDataRole. Data for individual roles are set individually with setData(), or they can be set for all roles with setItemData().

Items can be queried with flags() (see \l Qt::ItemFlag) to see if they can be selected, dragged, or manipulated in other ways.

If an item has child objects, hasChildren() returns {true} for the corresponding index.

The model has a rowCount() and a columnCount() for each level of the hierarchy. Rows and columns can be inserted and removed with insertRows(), insertColumns(), removeRows(), and removeColumns().

The model emits signals to indicate changes. For example, dataChanged() is emitted whenever items of data made available by the model are changed. Changes to the headers supplied by the model cause headerDataChanged() to be emitted. If the structure of the underlying data changes, the model can emit layoutChanged() to indicate to any attached views that they should redisplay any items shown, taking the new structure into account.

The items available through the model can be searched for particular data using the match() function.

To sort the model, you can use sort().

Member Enumeration Documentation

◆ CheckIndexOption

Since
5.11

This enum can be used to control the checks performed by QAbstractItemModel::checkIndex().

\value NoOption No check options are specified.

\value IndexIsValid The model index passed to QAbstractItemModel::checkIndex() is checked to be a valid model index.

\value DoNotUseParent Does not perform any check involving the usage of the parent of the index passed to QAbstractItemModel::checkIndex().

\value ParentIsInvalid The parent of the model index passed to QAbstractItemModel::checkIndex() is checked to be an invalid model index. If both this option and DoNotUseParent are specified, then this option is ignored.

Enumerator
NoOption 
IndexIsValid 
DoNotUseParent 
ParentIsInvalid 

Definition at line 353 of file qabstractitemmodel.h.

◆ LayoutChangeHint

This enum describes the way the model changes layout.

\value NoLayoutChangeHint No hint is available. \value VerticalSortHint Rows are being sorted. \value HorizontalSortHint Columns are being sorted.

Note that VerticalSortHint and HorizontalSortHint carry the meaning that items are being moved within the same parent, not moved to a different parent in the model, and not filtered out or in.

Member Function Documentation

◆ beginInsertColumns()

void QAbstractItemModel::beginInsertColumns ( const QModelIndex parent,
int  first,
int  last 
)
protected

Begins a column insertion operation.

When reimplementing insertColumns() in a subclass, you must call this function before inserting data into the model's underlying data store.

The parent index corresponds to the parent into which the new columns are inserted; first and last are the column numbers of the new columns will have after they have been inserted.

\table 80% \row

  • \inlineimage modelview-begin-insert-columns.png Inserting columns
  • Specify the first and last column numbers for the span of columns you want to insert into an item in a model.

For example, as shown in the diagram, we insert three columns before column 4, so first is 4 and last is 6:

This inserts the three new columns as columns 4, 5, and 6. \row

  • \inlineimage modelview-begin-append-columns.png Appending columns
  • To append columns, insert them after the last column.
    For example, as shown in the diagram, we append three columns to a
    collection of six existing columns (ending in column 5), so
    \a first is 6 and \a last is 8:
    
    \snippet code/src_corelib_kernel_qabstractitemmodel.cpp 4
    
    This appends the two new columns as columns 6, 7, and 8.
    
    \endtable
Note
This function emits the columnsAboutToBeInserted() signal which connected views (or proxies) must handle before the data is inserted. Otherwise, the views may end up in an invalid state.

◆ beginInsertRows()

void QAbstractItemModel::beginInsertRows ( const QModelIndex parent,
int  first,
int  last 
)
protected

Begins a row insertion operation.

When reimplementing insertRows() in a subclass, you must call this function before inserting data into the model's underlying data store.

The parent index corresponds to the parent into which the new rows are inserted; first and last are the row numbers that the new rows will have after they have been inserted.

\table 80% \row

  • \inlineimage modelview-begin-insert-rows.png Inserting rows
  • Specify the first and last row numbers for the span of rows you want to insert into an item in a model.

For example, as shown in the diagram, we insert three rows before row 2, so first is 2 and last is 4:

This inserts the three new rows as rows 2, 3, and 4. \row

  • \inlineimage modelview-begin-append-rows.png Appending rows
  • To append rows, insert them after the last row.
    For example, as shown in the diagram, we append two rows to a
    collection of 4 existing rows (ending in row 3), so \a first is 4
    and \a last is 5:
    
    \snippet code/src_corelib_kernel_qabstractitemmodel.cpp 1
    
    This appends the two new rows as rows 4 and 5.
    
    \endtable
Note
This function emits the rowsAboutToBeInserted() signal which connected views (or proxies) must handle before the data is inserted. Otherwise, the views may end up in an invalid state.

◆ beginMoveColumns()

bool QAbstractItemModel::beginMoveColumns ( const QModelIndex sourceParent,
int  sourceFirst,
int  sourceLast,
const QModelIndex destinationParent,
int  destinationChild 
)
protected

Begins a column move operation.

When reimplementing a subclass, this method simplifies moving entities in your model. This method is responsible for moving persistent indexes in the model, which you would otherwise be required to do yourself. Using beginMoveColumns and endMoveColumns is an alternative to emitting layoutAboutToBeChanged and layoutChanged directly along with changePersistentIndex.

The sourceParent index corresponds to the parent from which the columns are moved; sourceFirst and sourceLast are the first and last column numbers of the columns to be moved. The destinationParent index corresponds to the parent into which those columns are moved. The destinationChild is the column to which the columns will be moved. That is, the index at column sourceFirst in sourceParent will become column destinationChild in destinationParent, followed by all other columns up to sourceLast.

However, when moving columns down in the same parent (sourceParent and destinationParent are equal), the columns will be placed before the destinationChild index. That is, if you wish to move columns 0 and 1 so they will become columns 1 and 2, destinationChild should be 3. In this case, the new index for the source column i (which is between sourceFirst and sourceLast) is equal to {(destinationChild-sourceLast-1+i)}.

Note that if sourceParent and destinationParent are the same, you must ensure that the destinationChild is not within the range of sourceFirst and sourceLast + 1. You must also ensure that you do not attempt to move a column to one of its own children or ancestors. This method returns {false} if either condition is true, in which case you should abort your move operation.

bool QAbstractItemModel::beginMoveRows ( const QModelIndex sourceParent,
int  sourceFirst,
int  sourceLast,
const QModelIndex destinationParent,
int  destinationChild 
)
protected
Since
4.6

Begins a row move operation.

When reimplementing a subclass, this method simplifies moving entities in your model. This method is responsible for moving persistent indexes in the model, which you would otherwise be required to do yourself. Using beginMoveRows and endMoveRows is an alternative to emitting layoutAboutToBeChanged and layoutChanged directly along with changePersistentIndex.

The destinationParent index corresponds to the parent into which those rows are moved. The destinationChild is the row to which the rows will be moved. That is, the index at row sourceFirst in sourceParent will become row destinationChild in destinationParent, followed by all other rows up to sourceLast.

However, when moving rows down in the same parent (sourceParent and destinationParent are equal), the rows will be placed before the destinationChild index. That is, if you wish to move rows 0 and 1 so they will become rows 1 and 2, destinationChild should be 3. In this case, the new index for the source row i (which is between sourceFirst and sourceLast) is equal to {(destinationChild-sourceLast-1+i)}.

Note that if sourceParent and destinationParent are the same, you must ensure that the destinationChild is not within the range of sourceFirst and sourceLast + 1. You must also ensure that you do not attempt to move a row to one of its own children or ancestors. This method returns {false} if either condition is true, in which case you should abort your move operation.

\table 80% \row

  • \inlineimage modelview-move-rows-1.png Moving rows to another parent
  • Specify the first and last row numbers for the span of rows in the source parent you want to move in the model. Also specify the row in the destination parent to move the span to.

For example, as shown in the diagram, we move three rows from row 2 to 4 in the source, so sourceFirst is 2 and sourceLast is 4. We move those items to above row 2 in the destination, so destinationChild is 2.

This moves the three rows rows 2, 3, and 4 in the source to become 2, 3 and 4 in the destination. Other affected siblings are displaced accordingly. \row

  • \inlineimage modelview-move-rows-2.png Moving rows to append to another parent
  • To append rows to another parent, move them to after the last row.
    For example, as shown in the diagram, we move three rows to a
    collection of 6 existing rows (ending in row 5), so \a destinationChild is 6:
    
    \snippet code/src_corelib_kernel_qabstractitemmodel.cpp 7
    
    This moves the target rows to the end of the target parent as 6, 7 and 8.
    
    \row
  • \inlineimage modelview-move-rows-3.png Moving rows in the same parent up
  • To move rows within the same parent, specify the row to move them to.
    For example, as shown in the diagram, we move one item from row 2 to row 0,
    so \a sourceFirst and \a sourceLast are 2 and \a destinationChild is 0.
    
    \snippet code/src_corelib_kernel_qabstractitemmodel.cpp 8
    
    Note that other rows may be displaced accordingly. Note also that when moving
    items within the same parent you should not attempt invalid or no-op moves. In
    the above example, item 2 is at row 2 before the move, so it cannot be moved
    to row 2 (where it is already) or row 3 (no-op as row 3 means above row 3, where
    it is already)
    
    \row
  • \inlineimage modelview-move-rows-4.png Moving rows in the same parent down
  • To move rows within the same parent, specify the row to move them to.
    For example, as shown in the diagram, we move one item from row 2 to row 4,
    so \a sourceFirst and \a sourceLast are 2 and \a destinationChild is 4.
    
    \snippet code/src_corelib_kernel_qabstractitemmodel.cpp 9
    
    Note that other rows may be displaced accordingly.

◆ beginRemoveColumns()

void QAbstractItemModel::beginRemoveColumns ( const QModelIndex parent,
int  first,
int  last 
)
protected

Begins a column removal operation.

When reimplementing removeColumns() in a subclass, you must call this function before removing data from the model's underlying data store.

The parent index corresponds to the parent from which the new columns are removed; first and last are the column numbers of the first and last columns to be removed.

\table 80% \row

  • \inlineimage modelview-begin-remove-columns.png Removing columns
  • Specify the first and last column numbers for the span of columns you want to remove from an item in a model.

For example, as shown in the diagram, we remove the three columns from column 4 to column 6, so first is 4 and last is 6:

Begins a row removal operation.

When reimplementing removeRows() in a subclass, you must call this function before removing data from the model's underlying data store.

The parent index corresponds to the parent from which the new rows are removed; first and last are the row numbers of the rows to be removed.

\table 80% \row

  • \inlineimage modelview-begin-remove-rows.png Removing rows
  • Specify the first and last row numbers for the span of rows you want to remove from an item in a model.

For example, as shown in the diagram, we remove the two rows from row 2 to row 3, so first is 2 and last is 3:

\endtable

Note
This function emits the rowsAboutToBeRemoved() signal which connected views (or proxies) must handle before the data is removed. Otherwise, the views may end up in an invalid state.

◆ beginResetModel()

void QAbstractItemModel::beginResetModel ( )
protected

Begins a model reset operation.

A reset operation resets the model to its current state in any attached views.

Note
Any views attached to this model will be reset as well.

When a model is reset it means that any previous data reported from the model is now invalid and has to be queried for again. This also means that the current item and any selected items will become invalid.

When a model radically changes its data it can sometimes be easier to just call this function rather than emit dataChanged() to inform other components when the underlying data source, or its structure, has changed.

You must call this function before resetting any internal data structures in your model or proxy model.

This function emits the signal modelAboutToBeReset().

◆ checkIndex()

bool QAbstractItemModel::checkIndex ( const QModelIndex index,
CheckIndexOptions  options = CheckIndexOption::NoOption 
) const
Since
5.11

This function checks whether index is a legal model index for this model. A legal model index is either an invalid model index, or a valid model index for which all the following holds:

\list

  • the index' model is {this};
  • the index' row is greater or equal than zero;
  • the index' row is less than the row count for the index' parent;
  • the index' column is greater or equal than zero;
  • the index' column is less than the column count for the index' parent.

\endlist

The options argument may change some of these checks. If options contains {IndexIsValid}, then index must be a valid index; this is useful when reimplementing functions such as \l{data()} or \l{setData()}, which expect valid indexes.

If options contains {DoNotUseParent}, then the checks that would call \l{parent()} are omitted; this allows calling this function from a \l{parent()} reimplementation (otherwise, this would result in endless recursion and a crash).

If options does not contain {DoNotUseParent}, and it contains {ParentIsInvalid}, then an additional check is performed: the parent index is checked for not being valid. This is useful when implementing flat models such as lists or tables, where no model index should have a valid parent index.

This function returns true if all the checks succeeded, and false otherwise. This allows to use the function in \l{Q_ASSERT} and similar other debugging mechanisms. If some check failed, a warning message will be printed in the {qt.core.qabstractitemmodel.checkindex} logging category, containing some information that may be useful for debugging the failure.

Note
This function is a debugging helper for implementing your own item models. When developing complex models, as well as when building complicated model hierarchies (e.g. using proxy models), it is useful to call this function in order to catch bugs relative to illegal model indices (as defined above) accidentally passed to some QAbstractItemModel API.
Warning
Note that it's undefined behavior to pass illegal indices to item models, so applications must refrain from doing so, and not rely on any "defensive" programming that item models could employ to handle illegal indexes gracefully.

◆ dropMimeData()

bool QAbstractItemModel::dropMimeData ( const QMimeData data,

virtual

Handles the data supplied by a drag and drop operation that ended with the given action.

Returns {true} if the data and action were handled by the model; otherwise returns {false}.

The specified row, column and parent indicate the location of an item in the model where the operation ended. It is the responsibility of the model to complete the action at the correct location.

For instance, a drop action on an item in a QTreeView can result in new items either being inserted as children of the item specified by row, column, and parent, or as siblings of the item.

When row and column are -1 it means that the dropped data should be considered as dropped directly on parent. Usually this will mean appending the data as child items of parent. If row and column are greater than or equal zero, it means that the drop occurred just before the specified row and column in the specified parent.

The mimeTypes() member is called to get the list of acceptable MIME types. This default implementation assumes the default implementation of mimeTypes(), which returns a single default MIME type. If you reimplement mimeTypes() in your custom model to return multiple MIME types, you must reimplement this function to make use of them.

Returns a list of indexes for the items in the column of the start index where data stored under the given role matches the specified value. The way the search is performed is defined by the flags given. The list that is returned may be empty. Note also that the order of results in the list may not correspond to the order in the model, if for example a proxy model is used. The order of the results cannot be relied upon.

The search begins from the start index, and continues until the number of matching data items equals hits, the search reaches the last row, or the search reaches start again - depending on whether MatchWrap is specified in flags. If you want to search for all matching items, use hits = -1.

By default, this function will perform a wrapping, string-based comparison on all items, searching for items that begin with the search term specified by value.

Note
The default implementation of this function only searches columns. Reimplement this function to include a different search behavior.

QMimeData * QAbstractItemModel::mimeData ( const QModelIndexList indexes) const

Returns an object that contains serialized items of data corresponding to the list of indexes specified. The format used to describe the encoded data is obtained from the mimeTypes() function. This default implementation uses the default MIME type returned by the default implementation of mimeTypes(). If you reimplement mimeTypes() in your custom model to return more MIME types, reimplement this function to make use of them.

If the list of indexes is empty, or there are no supported MIME types, \nullptr is returned rather than a serialized empty list.

◆ multiData()

void QAbstractItemModel::multiData ( const QModelIndex index,
QModelRoleDataSpan  roleDataSpan 
) const
virtual
Since
6.0

Fills the roleDataSpan with the requested data for the given index.

The default implementation will call simply data() for each role in the span. A subclass can reimplement this function to provide data to views more efficiently:

In the snippet above, {index} is the same for the entire call. This means that accessing to the necessary data structures in order to retrieve the information for {index} can be done only once (hoisting the relevant code out of the loop).

The usage of QModelRoleData::setData(), or similarly QVariant::setValue(), is encouraged over constructing a QVariant separately and using a plain assignment operator; this is because the former allow to re-use the memory already allocated for the QVariant object stored inside a QModelRoleData, while the latter always allocates the new variant and then destroys the old one.

Note that views may call multiData() with spans that have been used in previous calls, and therefore may already contain some data. Therefore, it is imperative that if the model cannot return the data for a given role, then it must clear the data in the corresponding QModelRoleData object. This can be done by calling QModelRoleData::clearData(), or similarly by setting a default constructed QVariant, and so on. Failure to clear the data will result in the view believing that the "old" data is meant to be used for the corresponding role.

Finally, in order to avoid code duplication, a subclass may also decide to reimplement data() in terms of multiData(), by supplying a span of just one element:

Note
Models are not allowed to modify the roles in the span, or to rearrange the span elements. Doing so results in undefined behavior.
It is illegal to pass an invalid model index to this function.

QModelIndex QAbstractItemModel::parent ( const QModelIndex index) const

Returns the parent of the model item with the given index. If the item has no parent, an invalid QModelIndex is returned.

A common convention used in models that expose tree data structures is that only items in the first column have children. For that case, when reimplementing this function in a subclass the column of the returned QModelIndex would be 0.

When reimplementing this function in a subclass, be careful to avoid calling QModelIndex member functions, such as QModelIndex::parent(), since indexes belonging to your model will simply call your implementation, leading to infinite recursion.
