how to use QIdentityProxyModel?

[ChrisW67]

The prototype of your data() function does not match the prototype of the data() function you are trying to override: you are missing a const qualifier.

almost four hours of trial and error and the error was a missing type in the doc of QIdentityProxyModel... but, I feel like a fool for not having noticed before.

let me report the missing typo in the doc to trolltech.


thanks for the help.

I see no error in the documentation of the data() function in QAbstractProxyModel, from which it is inherited by QIdentityProxyModel. There is an error in the snippet in the QIdentityProxyModel detailed description section. Attach a patch to your bug.
