QSortFilterProxyModel nothing changes

Hi i'm trying to filter the content displayed in the TableView getting the string from lineEdit but nothing happens when i write in the lineEdit.
HELP

Code:

---

QString searchValue = ui->lineEdit_search_clients->text();
 
        QSqlQueryModel *model=new QSqlQueryModel();
 
        QSortFilterProxyModel *proxyModel = new QSortFilterProxyModel;
        proxyModel->setSourceModel(model);
        proxyModel->setFilterRegExp(QRegExp(searchValue, Qt::CaseInsensitive, QRegExp::FixedString));
 
        model->setQuery("SELECT ROWID, ClientName, ClientCity, ClientEik FROM clients");
        model->setHeaderData(0, Qt::Horizontal, QObject::tr("RowID"));
        model->setHeaderData(1, Qt::Horizontal, QObject::tr("Name"));
        model->setHeaderData(2, Qt::Horizontal, QObject::tr("City"));
        model->setHeaderData(3, Qt::Horizontal, QObject::tr("ID"));
 
 
        ui->tableView_clients->setModel(proxyModel);
        ui->tableView_clients->setSortingEnabled(true);
        ui->tableView_clients->setColumnWidth(0,30);
        ui->tableView_clients->setColumnWidth(1,170);
        ui->tableView_clients->setColumnWidth(2,100);
        ui->tableView_clients->setColumnWidth(3,70);
        ui->tableView_clients->horizontalHeader()->setResizeMode(QHeaderView::Interactive);
        ui->tableView_clients->horizontalHeader()->setStretchLastSection(true);
        ui->tableView_clients->show();

If you write in lineEdit after this code has been run then it will not change anything. You have to call setFilterRegExp() again (or, better yet, setFilterFixedString() in your case) after the lineEdit's text has been modified. Also remember that QSortFilterProxyModel filters column 0 of the model by default, which may or may not be what you want.

By the way your code leaks memory in two places.

Thanks, now the code looks like this:

Code:

---

QString searchValue = ui->lineEdit_search_clients->text();
        QSqlQueryModel *model=new QSqlQueryModel(this);
        QSortFilterProxyModel *proxyModel = new QSortFilterProxyModel(this);
 
        proxyModel->setSourceModel(model);
        proxyModel->setFilterRegExp(QRegExp(searchValue, Qt::CaseInsensitive, QRegExp::FixedString));
 
        connect(ui->lineEdit_search_clients, SIGNAL(textChanged(QString)),
                    proxyModel, SLOT(setFilterFixedString(QString)));
 
        model->setQuery("SELECT ROWID, ClientName, ClientCity, ClientEik FROM clients");
        model->setHeaderData(0, Qt::Horizontal, QObject::tr("RowID"));
        model->setHeaderData(1, Qt::Horizontal, QObject::tr("Name"));
        model->setHeaderData(2, Qt::Horizontal, QObject::tr("City"));
        model->setHeaderData(3, Qt::Horizontal, QObject::tr("ID"));
 
 
        ui->tableView_clients->setModel(proxyModel);
        ui->tableView_clients->setSortingEnabled(true);
        ui->tableView_clients->setColumnWidth(0,30);
        ui->tableView_clients->setColumnWidth(1,170);
        ui->tableView_clients->setColumnWidth(2,100);
        ui->tableView_clients->setColumnWidth(3,70);
        ui->tableView_clients->horizontalHeader()->setResizeMode(QHeaderView::Interactive);
        ui->tableView_clients->horizontalHeader()->setStretchLastSection(true);
        ui->tableView_clients->show();

Remain the problem with filtering not only first column but everywhere.Any suggestions?

QSortFilterProxyModel has a method to select which column to filter: either a specific one or all of them.

sorry , but i can't figure out how to filter ALL without subclassing!

add the code

Code:

---

proxymodel->setFilterKeyColumn ( -1 )

---

the -1 indicate read the value in all the column.

Thank you!

Thank you!

A subquestion of my question:
When i get selected row from the model i use it on the following way:

Code:

---

QModelIndexList selectedList = ui->tableView_clients->selectionModel()->selectedRows();
 
    QSqlQueryModel *mod=new QSqlQueryModel(this);
 
 
    int selected_row;
    int i=0;
    selected_row=selectedList.at(i).row();
 
    mod->setQuery("SELECT * FROM clients");
 
    QString ClientName = mod->data(mod->index(selected_row, 0)).toString();
    QString ClientCity = mod->data(mod->index(selected_row, 1)).toString();
    QString ClientAddress = mod->data(mod->index(selected_row, 2)).toString();
    QString ClientMol = mod->data(mod->index(selected_row, 3)).toString();
    QString ClientEik = mod->data(mod->index(selected_row, 4)).toString();
    QString ClientVat = mod->data(mod->index(selected_row, 5)).toString();
 
    //QMessageBox::information(this,"", ClientMol);
 
    emit selectedName(ClientName);
    emit selectedCity(ClientCity);
    emit selectedAddress(ClientAddress);
    emit selectedMol(ClientMol);
    emit selectedEik(ClientEik);
    emit selectedVat(ClientVat);
    //emit selectedRaw(QString::number(ClientId));
    this->close();

The problem is that when searching the order of appearance is changing and the selected row i get already doesn't much the row selected we see.

Does nobody have an idea why the model doesn't correspond to the view after searching with QSortFilterProxyModel?
