Hi, I found in many Qt-examples, either from the Official Documentation, or from the books, that the QListView (or any other View) can be created dinamically without specifying the parent, like here:
Qt Code:
  1. QListView *listView = new QListView;
  2. listView->setModel(&model); // model was created previously on the stack
To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

So the question is: why have it sense?
