Efficient models for QML: QAbstractListModel & QSyncable / QQmlObjectListModel

We start the meeting earlier next time; 6:30 PM at Promenade on the 2nd Tuesday of August.

Join us to explore the QAbstractListModel class and the powerful QSyncable class for providing lists of data to QML.

QAbstractListModel is a subclass of the QAbstractItemModel with a few minor changes for handling list data instead of tree data. It allows inserting, removing and modifying list elements while only updating affected QML elements -- not the entire list.

The QSyncable class is an open source project which wraps QAbstractItemModel and manages the QAbstractItemModel remove, insert and move operations for data changes. It too supports efficient QML view updating.

Both Stan Morris and Niels Mayer will present.
