<p>The Completer example shows how to provide string-completion facilities for an input widget based on data provided by a model.<p class="centerAlign"><img src="images/completer-example.png" alt="" /></p><p>This example uses a custom item model, <tt>FileSystemModel</tt>, and a <a href="qcompleter.html">QCompleter</a> object. <a href="qcompleter.html">QCompleter</a> is a class that provides completions based on an item model. The type of model, the completion mode, and the case sensitivity can be selected using combo boxes.</p>
<a name="the-resource-file"></a>
<h2>The Resource File</h2>
<p>The Completer example requires a resource file in order to store the <i>countries.txt</i> and <i>words.txt</i>. The resource file contains the following code:</p>
<pre class="cpp"> &lt;!DOCTYPE RCC&gt;&lt;RCC version=&quot;1.0&quot;&gt;
&lt;qresource prefix=&quot;/&quot;&gt;
&lt;file&gt;resources/countries.txt&lt;/file&gt;
&lt;file&gt;resources/wordlist.txt&lt;/file&gt;
&lt;/qresource&gt;
&lt;/RCC&gt;</pre>
<a name="filesystemmodel-class-definition"></a>
<h2>FileSystemModel Class Definition</h2>
<p>The <tt>FileSystemModel</tt> class is a subclass of <a href="qfilesystemmodel.html">QFileSystemModel</a>, which provides a data model for the local filesystem.</p>
<pre class="cpp"> <span class="keyword">class</span> FileSystemModel : <span class="keyword">public</span> <span class="type"><a href="qfilesystemmodel.html">QFileSystemModel</a></span>
{
<span class="keyword">public</span>:
FileSystemModel(<span class="type"><a href="qobject.html">QObject</a></span> <span class="operator">*</span>parent <span class="operator">=</span> <span class="number">0</span>);
<span class="type"><a href="qvariant.html">QVariant</a></span> data(<span class="keyword">const</span> <span class="type"><a href="qmodelindex.html">QModelIndex</a></span> <span class="operator">&amp;</span>index<span class="operator">,</span> <span class="type">int</span> role <span class="operator">=</span> <span class="type"><a href="qt.html">Qt</a></span><span class="operator">::</span>DisplayRole) <span class="keyword">const</span>;
};</pre>
<p>This class only has a constructor and a <tt>data()</tt> function as it is only created to enable <tt>data()</tt> to return the entire file path for the display role, unlike <a href="qfilesystemmodel.html">QFileSystemModel</a>'s <tt>data()</tt> function that only returns the folder and not the drive label. This is further explained in <tt>FileSystemModel</tt>'s implementation.</p>
<a name="filesystemmodel-class-implementation"></a>
<h2>FileSystemModel Class Implementation</h2>
<p>The constructor for the <tt>FileSystemModel</tt> class is used to pass <i>parent</i> to <a href="qfilesystemmodel.html">QFileSystemModel</a>.</p>
<pre class="cpp"> FileSystemModel<span class="operator">::</span>FileSystemModel(<span class="type"><a href="qobject.html">QObject</a></span> <span class="operator">*</span>parent)
: <span class="type"><a href="qfilesystemmodel.html">QFileSystemModel</a></span>(parent)
{
}</pre>
<p>As mentioned earlier, the <tt>data()</tt> function is reimplemented in order to get it to return the entire file parth for the display role. For example, with a <a href="qfilesystemmodel.html">QFileSystemModel</a>, you will see &quot;Program Files&quot; in the view. However, with <tt>FileSystemModel</tt>, you will see &quot;C:\Program Files&quot;.</p>
<pre class="cpp"> <span class="type"><a href="qvariant.html">QVariant</a></span> FileSystemModel<span class="operator">::</span>data(<span class="keyword">const</span> <span class="type"><a href="qmodelindex.html">QModelIndex</a></span> <span class="operator">&amp;</span>index<span class="operator">,</span> <span class="type">int</span> role) <span class="keyword">const</span>
{
<span class="keyword">if</span> (role <span class="operator">=</span><span class="operator">=</span> <span class="type"><a href="qt.html">Qt</a></span><span class="operator">::</span>DisplayRole <span class="operator">&amp;</span><span class="operator">&amp;</span> index<span class="operator">.</span>column() <span class="operator">=</span><span class="operator">=</span> <span class="number">0</span>) {
<span class="type"><a href="qstring.html">QString</a></span> path <span class="operator">=</span> <span class="type"><a href="qdir.html">QDir</a></span><span class="operator">::</span>toNativeSeparators(filePath(index));
<span class="keyword">if</span> (path<span class="operator">.</span>endsWith(<span class="type"><a href="qdir.html">QDir</a></span><span class="operator">::</span>separator()))
path<span class="operator">.</span>chop(<span class="number">1</span>);
<span class="keyword">return</span> path;
}
<span class="keyword">return</span> <span class="type"><a href="qfilesystemmodel.html">QFileSystemModel</a></span><span class="operator">::</span>data(index<span class="operator">,</span> role);
}</pre>
<p>The screenshots below illustrate this difference:</p>
<table class="generic">
<tr valign="top" class="odd"><td ><img src="images/completer-example-qdirmodel.png" alt="" /></td><td ><img src="images/completer-example-dirmodel.png" alt="" /></td></tr>
</table>
<p>The <a href="qt.html#ItemDataRole-enum">Qt::EditRole</a>, which <a href="qcompleter.html">QCompleter</a> uses to look for matches, is left unchanged.</p>
<a name="mainwindow-class-definition"></a>
<h2>MainWindow Class Definition</h2>
<p>The <tt>MainWindow</tt> class is a subclass of <a href="qmainwindow.html">QMainWindow</a> and implements five private slots - <tt>about()</tt>, <tt>changeCase()</tt>, <tt>changeMode()</tt>, <tt>changeModel()</tt>, and <tt>changeMaxVisible()</tt>.</p>
<pre class="cpp"> <span class="keyword">class</span> MainWindow : <span class="keyword">public</span> <span class="type"><a href="qmainwindow.html">QMainWindow</a></span>

<span class="type">void</span> changeModel();
<span class="type">void</span> changeMaxVisible(<span class="type">int</span>);</pre>
<p>Within the <tt>MainWindow</tt> class, we have two private functions: <tt>createMenu()</tt> and <tt>modelFromFile()</tt>. We also declare the private widgets needed - three <a href="qcombobox.html">QComboBox</a> objects, a <a href="qcheckbox.html">QCheckBox</a>, a <a href="qcompleter.html">QCompleter</a>, a <a href="qlabel.html">QLabel</a>, and a <a href="qlineedit.html">QLineEdit</a>.</p>

<h2>MainWindow Class Implementation</h2>
<p>The constructor of <tt>MainWindow</tt> constructs a <tt>MainWindow</tt> with a parent widget and initializes the private members. The <tt>createMenu()</tt> function is then invoked.</p>
<p>We set up three <a href="qcombobox.html">QComboBox</a> objects, <tt>modelComb</tt>, <tt>modeCombo</tt> and <tt>caseCombo</tt>. By default, the <tt>modelCombo</tt> is set to <a href="qfilesystemmodel.html">QFileSystemModel</a>, the <tt>modeCombo</tt> is set to &quot;Filtered Popup&quot; and the <tt>caseCombo</tt> is set to &quot;Case Insensitive&quot;.</p>
