Iterating over a QMap with for

Question

I\'ve a QMap object and I am trying to write its content to a file.

QMap extensions;
//.. 

for(auto e : extensions)
{
  fou         


        

Answer 1

Another convenient method, from the QMap Docs. It allows explicit access to key and value (Java-Style iterator):

QMap extensions;
// ... fill extensions
QMapIterator i(extensions);
while (i.hasNext()) {
    i.next();
    qDebug() << i.key() << ": " << i.value();
}

In case you want to be able to overwrite, use QMutableMapIterator instead.

There's another convenient Qt method, if you're only interested in reading the values, without the keys (using Qts foreach and c++11):

QMap extensions;
// ... fill extensions
foreach (const auto& value, extensions)
{
    // to stuff with value
}
