\class QStringList qstringlist.h
\brief A list of strings.
\ingroup qtl
\ingroup tools
\ingroup shared
QStringList is basically a QValueList of QString objects. As opposed
to QStrList, that stores pointers to characters, QStringList deals
with real QString objects. It is the class of choice whenever you
work with unicode strings.
Like QString itself, QStringList objects are implicit shared.
Passing them around as value-parameters is both fast and safe.
Example:
\code
QStringList list;
// three different ways of appending values:
list.append( "Torben");
list += "Warwick";
list << "Matthias" << "Arnt" << "Paul";
// sort the list, Arnt's now first
list.sort();
// print it out
for ( QStringList::Iterator it = list.begin(); it != list.end(); ++it ) {
printf( "%s \n", (*it).latin1() );
}
\endcode
Convenience methods such as sort(), split(), join() and grep() make
working with QStringList easy.
*/
/*!
\fn QStringList::QStringList()
Creates an empty list.
*/
/*! \fn QStringList::QStringList( const QStringList& l )
Creates a copy of the list. This function is very fast since
QStringList is implicit shared. However, for the programmer this
is the same as a deep copy. If this list or the original one or some
other list referencing the same shared data is modified, then the
modifying list makes a copy first.
*/
/*!
\fn QStringList::QStringList (const QString & i)
Constructs a string list consisting of the single string \a i.
To make longer lists easily, use:
\code
QString s1,s2,s3;
...
QStringList mylist = QStringList() << s1 << s2 << s3;
\endcode
*/
/*!
\fn QStringList::QStringList (const char* i)
Constructs a string list consisting of the single latin-1 string \a i.
*/
/*! \fn QStringList::QStringList( const QValueList<QString>& l )
Constructs a new string list that is a copy of \a l.
*/
/*!
Sorts the list of strings in ascending order.
Sorting is very fast. It uses the Qt Template Library's
efficient HeapSort implementation that operates in O(n*log n).
