What is the difference between QItemDelegate and QStyledItemDelegate?

问题

Both classes provide display and editing facilities for data items from a model. QStyledItemDelegate is newer and the Qt documentation about QItemDelegate states that :

Note that QStyledItemDelegate has taken over the job of drawing Qt's item views. We recommend the use of QStyledItemDelegate when creating new delegates.

I am confused what's the difference between the two and why QStyledItemDelegate is preferred over QItemDelegate!

回答1:

As mentioned in the QStyledItemDelegate documentation, the difference is that QStyledItemDelegate uses the current style to paint its items.

These two classes are independent alternatives to painting and providing editors for items in views. The difference between them is that QStyledItemDelegate uses the current style to paint its items. We therefore recommend using QStyledItemDelegate as the base class when implementing custom delegates or when working with Qt style sheets. The code required for either class should be equal unless the custom delegate needs to use the style for drawing.
