And in QML you have .length where you'd expect to have it, in JS arrays and strings. > It makes no sense to have Qt use count in similar situations. Arrays and strings are not exactly similar situations to item views and item models. :) > As Thiago mentioned length, size and count are all analogous in the C++ API, > so I don't know how/why they are ambiguous. The C++ API of the Qt containers. Not item views nor item models. Two entirely different worlds. The length or size of an array is clear, but the length or size of a list view is likely to get associated to the UI element's visual geometry. > I write quite a bit of JS code (server and mobile) and it seems rather > arbitrary to continue to use count. > > Specific places: > All models. DelegateModel, DelegateModelGroup, ListModel, etc. It's not that arbitrary. "Count" is used all over in item views and item models, in C++ and in QML. -- J-P Nurmi _______________________________________________ Interest mailing list Interest@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/interest
