Difficulties with QTableView and setModel

[sekatsim]

The Qt4.4 Doc, in the SQL section, has the following example for connecting an opened SQL form to a QTableView widget:

QTableView *view = new QTableView;
     view->setModel(model);
     view->show();

QTableView *view = new QTableView;
     view->setModel(model);
     view->show();

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

However, when I try something similar:

QSqlTableModel model;
 
     model.setTable("employee");
     model.setFilter("salary > 50000");
     model.setSort(2, Qt::DescendingOrder);
     model.select();
 
     for (int i = 0; i < model.rowCount(); ++i) {
         QString name = model.record(i).value("name").toString();
         int salary = model.record(i).value("salary").toInt();
         qDebug() << name << salary;
     }
 
     model.insertRows(row, 1);
     model.setData(model.index(row, 0), 1013);
     model.setData(model.index(row, 1), "Peter Gordon");
     model.setData(model.index(row, 2), 68500);
     model.submitAll();
 
     ui.cueTable->setModel(model);

QSqlTableModel model;

     model.setTable("employee");
     model.setFilter("salary > 50000");
     model.setSort(2, Qt::DescendingOrder);
     model.select();

     for (int i = 0; i < model.rowCount(); ++i) {
         QString name = model.record(i).value("name").toString();
         int salary = model.record(i).value("salary").toInt();
         qDebug() << name << salary;
     }
     
     model.insertRows(row, 1);
     model.setData(model.index(row, 0), 1013);
     model.setData(model.index(row, 1), "Peter Gordon");
     model.setData(model.index(row, 2), 68500);
     model.submitAll();
     
     ui.cueTable->setModel(model);

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

I get

"src/cues.cpp:38: error: no matching function for call to ‘QTableView::setModel(QSqlTableModel&)â€⠄¢
/usr/include/qt4/QtGui/qtableview.h:73: note: candidates are: virtual void QTableView::setModel(QAbstractItemModel*)
make: *** [build/cues.o] Error 1"

I cant tell why.. As far as I understood, QSqlTableModel Was a QAbstractItemModel. I'm trying to put the model into a QTableView, just like in the example, but it won't accept it.

Why is this?

Thank you
