| 36 | The GUI layer of the SQL module in Qt 4 has been entirely
|
|---|
| 37 | redesigned to work with \l{qt4-interview.html}{Interview} (Qt's
|
|---|
| 38 | new model/view classes). It consists of three model classes
|
|---|
| 39 | (QSqlQueryModel, QSqlTableModel, and QSqlRelationalTableModel)
|
|---|
| 40 | that can be used with Qt's view classes, notably QTableView.
|

|
|---|
| 42 | \section1 General Overview
|
|---|
| 43 |
|
|---|
| 44 | The Qt 4 SQL classes are divided into three layers:
|
|---|
| 45 |
|
|---|
| 46 | \list
|
|---|
| 47 | \o The database drivers
|
|---|
| 48 | \o The core SQL classes
|
|---|
| 49 | \o The GUI classes
|
|---|
| 50 | \endlist
|
|---|
| 51 |
|
|---|
| 52 | The database drivers and the core SQL classes are mostly the same
|
|---|
| 53 | as in Qt 3. The database item models are new with Qt 4; they
|
|---|
| 54 | inherit from QAbstractItemModel and make it easy to present data
|
|---|
| 55 | from a database in a view class such as QListView, QTableView,
|
|---|
| 56 | and QTreeView.
