43 \class QStack
44 \brief The QStack class is a template class that provides a stack.

51 QStack\<T\> is one of Qt's generic \l{container classes}. It implements
52 a stack data structure for items of a same type.
53
54 A stack is a last in, first out (LIFO) structure. Items are added
55 to the top of the stack using push() and retrieved from the top
56 using pop(). The top() function provides access to the topmost
57 item without removing it.
58
59 Example:
60
61 \snippet doc/src/snippets/qstack/main.cpp 0
62
63 The example will output 3, 2, 1 in that order.
64
65 QStack inherits from QVector. All of QVector's functionality also
66 applies to QStack. For example, you can use isEmpty() to test
67 whether the stack is empty, and you can traverse a QStack using
68 QVector's iterator classes (for example, QVectorIterator). But in
69 addition, QStack provides three convenience functions that make
70 it easy to implement LIFO semantics: push(), pop(), and top().
71
72 QStack's value type must be an \l{assignable data type}. This
73 covers most data types that are commonly used, but the compiler
74 won't let you, for example, store a QWidget as a value; instead,
75 store a QWidget *.
