Qt 4.7: Qt 3 Support Members for QLinkedList

Qt Reference Documentation

# Qt 3 Support Members for QLinkedList

The following class members are part of the Qt 3 support layer. They are provided to help you port old code to Qt 4. We advise against using them in new code.

## Member Function Documentation

### iterator QLinkedList::find ( iterator from, const T & t )

If you need random access to a data structure then QList, QVector, QMap, or QHash, are all better choices than QLinkedList.

For example, if you have code like

     QLinkedList::iterator i = list->find(from, value);

you can rewrite it as

     QLinkedList::iterator i = from;
     while (i != list->end() && *i != value)
         ++i;

### iterator QLinkedList::find ( const T & t )

If you need random access to a data structure then QList, QVector, QMap, or QHash, are all better choices than QLinkedList.

For example, if you have code like

     QLinkedList::iterator i = list->find(value);

you can rewrite it as

     QLinkedList::iterator i = list->begin();
     while (i != list->end() && *i != value)
         ++i;

### const_iterator QLinkedList::find ( const_iterator from, const T & t ) const

If you need random access to a data structure then QList, QVector, QMap, or QHash, are all better choices than QLinkedList.

For example, if you have code like

     QLinkedList::const_iterator i = list->find(from, value);

you can rewrite it as

     QLinkedList::const_iterator i = from;
     while (i != list->end() && *i != value)
         ++i;

### const_iterator QLinkedList::find ( const T & t ) const

If you need random access to a data structure then QList, QVector, QMap, or QHash, are all better choices than QLinkedList.

For example, if you have code like

     QLinkedList::const_iterator i = list->find(value);

you can rewrite it as

     QLinkedList::const_iterator i = list->begin();
     while (i != list->end() && *i != value)
         ++i;

### int QLinkedList::findIndex ( const T & t ) const

If you need indexes then QList or QVector are better choices than QLinkedList.

For example, if you have code like

     int index = list->findIndex(value);

you can rewrite it as

     int index = 0;
     bool found = false;
     for (const_iterator i = list->begin(); i != list->end(); ++i; ++index)
         if (*i == value) {
             found = true;
             break;
         }
     if (!found)
         index = -1;

### iterator QLinkedList::remove ( iterator pos )

Use erase() instead.
