QSet<T> is one of Qt's generic container classes. It stores values in an unspecified order and provides very fast lookup of the values. Internally, QSet<T> is implemented as a QHash.
Here's an example QSet with QString values:
QSet<QString> set;
To insert a value into the set, use insert():
set.insert("one");
set.insert("three");
set.insert("seven"); Another way to insert items into the set is to use operator<<():
set << "twelve" << "fifteen" << "nineteen";
To test whether an item belongs to the set or not, use contains():
if (!set.contains("ninety-nine"))
... If you want to navigate through all the values stored in a QSet, you can use an iterator. QSet supports both Java-style iterators (QSetIterator and QMutableSetIterator) and STL-style iterators (QSet::iterator and QSet::const_iterator). Here's how to iterate over a QSet<QWidget *> using a Java-style iterator:
QSetIterator<QWidget *> i(set);
while (i.hasNext())
qDebug() << i.next(); Here's the same code, but using an STL-style iterator:
QSet<QWidget *>::const_iterator i = set.constBegin();
while (i != set.constEnd()) {
qDebug() << *i;
++i;
} QSet is unordered, so an iterator's sequence cannot be assumed to be predictable. If ordering by key is required, use a QMap.
To navigate through a QSet, you can also use foreach:
QSet<QString> set;
...
foreach (const QString &value, set)
qDebug() << value; Items can be removed from the set using remove(). There is also a clear() function that removes all items.
QSet's value data type must be an assignable data type. You cannot, for example, store a QWidget as a value; instead, store a QWidget *. In addition, the type must provide operator==(), and there must also be a global qHash() function that returns a hash value for an argument of the key's type. See the QHash documentation for a list of types supported by qHash().
Internally, QSet uses a hash table to perform lookups. The hash table automatically grows and shrinks to provide fast lookups without wasting memory. You can still control the size of the hash table by calling reserve(), if you already know approximately how many elements the QSet will contain, but this isn't necessary to obtain good performance. You can also call capacity() to retrieve the hash table's size.

Returns a new QSet that is the union of this set and the other set.
See also unite(), operator|=(), operator&(), and operator-().
Same as unite(other).
See also operator|(), operator&=(), and operator-=().
Inserts a new item value and returns a reference to the set. If value already exists in the set, the set is left unchanged.
See also insert().
Constructs a set with the contents in the iterator range [first, last).
The value type of InputIterator must be convertible to T.
Note: If the range [first, last) contains duplicate elements, the first one is retained.
This function was introduced in Qt 5.14.
Constructs a set with a copy of each of the elements in the initializer list list.
This function was introduced in Qt 5.1.
Constructs an empty set.
See also clear().
Returns a const STL-style iterator positioned at the first item in the set.
See also constBegin() and end().
This is an overloaded function.
Returns a non-const STL-style iterator positioned at the first item in the set.
This function was introduced in Qt 4.2.
Returns the number of buckets in the set's internal hash table.
The sole purpose of this function is to provide a means of fine tuning QSet's memory usage. In general, you will rarely ever need to call this function. If you want to know how many items are in the set, call size().
See also reserve() and squeeze().
Returns a const STL-style iterator positioned at the first item in the set.
This function was introduced in Qt 5.0.
Returns a const STL-style iterator pointing to the imaginary item after the last item in the set.
This function was introduced in Qt 5.0.
Removes all elements from the set.
See also remove().
Returns a const STL-style iterator positioned at the first item in the set.
See also begin() and constEnd().
Returns a const STL-style iterator pointing to the imaginary item after the last item in the set.
See also constBegin() and end().
Returns a const iterator positioned at the item value in the set. If the set contains no item value, the function returns constEnd().
This function was introduced in Qt 4.2.
See also find() and contains().
Returns true if the set contains item value; otherwise returns false.
See also insert(), remove(), and find().
Returns true if the set contains all items from the other set; otherwise returns false.
This function was introduced in Qt 4.6.
See also insert(), remove(), and find().
Same as size().
Returns true if the set is empty. This function is provided for STL compatibility. It is equivalent to isEmpty().
Returns a const STL-style iterator positioned at the imaginary item after the last item in the set.
See also constEnd() and begin().
This is an overloaded function.
Returns a non-const STL-style iterator pointing to the imaginary item after the last item in the set.
This function was introduced in Qt 4.2.
Removes the item at the iterator position pos from the set, and returns an iterator positioned at the next item in the set.
Unlike remove(), this function never causes QSet to rehash its internal data structure. This means that it can safely be called while iterating, and won't affect the order of items in the set.
This function was introduced in Qt 5.7.
This is an overloaded function.
This function was introduced in Qt 4.2.
Returns a const iterator positioned at the item value in the set. If the set contains no item value, the function returns constEnd().
This function was introduced in Qt 4.2.
See also constFind() and contains().
This is an overloaded function.
Returns a non-const iterator positioned at the item value in the set. If the set contains no item value, the function returns end().
This function was introduced in Qt 4.2.
[static] QSet<T> QSet::fromList(const QList<T> &list)
Returns a new QSet object containing the data contained in list. Since QSet doesn't allow duplicates, the resulting QSet might be smaller than the list, because QList can contain duplicates.
Example:
QStringList list;
list << "Julia" << "Mike" << "Mike" << "Julia" << "Julia";
QSet<QString> set = QSet<QString>::fromList(list);
set.contains("Julia"); // returns true
set.contains("Mike"); // returns true
set.size(); // returns 2 Note: Since Qt 5.14, range constructors are available for Qt's generic container classes and should be used in place of this method.
See also toList() and QList::toSet().
Inserts item value into the set, if value isn't already in the set, and returns an iterator pointing at the inserted item.
See also operator<<(), remove(), and contains().
Removes all items from this set that are not contained in the other set. A reference to this set is returned.
See also intersects(), operator&=(), unite(), and subtract().
Returns true if this set has at least one item in common with other.
This function was introduced in Qt 5.6.
See also contains() and intersect().
Returns true if the set contains no elements; otherwise returns false.
See also size().
Removes any occurrence of item value from the set. Returns true if an item was actually removed; otherwise returns false.
See also contains() and insert().
Ensures that the set's internal hash table consists of at least size buckets.
This function is useful for code that needs to build a huge set and wants to avoid repeated reallocation. For example:
QSet<QString> set;
set.reserve(20000);
for (int i = 0; i < 20000; ++i)
set.insert(values[i]); Ideally, size should be slightly more than the maximum number of elements expected in the set. size doesn't have to be prime, because QSet will use a prime number internally anyway. If size is an underestimate, the worst that will happen is that the QSet will be a bit slower.
In general, you will rarely ever need to call this function. QSet's internal hash table automatically shrinks or grows to provide good performance without wasting too much memory.
See also squeeze() and capacity().
Returns the number of items in the set.
See also isEmpty() and count().
Reduces the size of the set's internal hash table to save memory.
The sole purpose of this function is to provide a means of fine tuning QSet's memory usage. In general, you will rarely ever need to call this function.
See also reserve() and capacity().
Removes all items from this set that are contained in the other set. Returns a reference to this set.
See also operator-=(), unite(), and intersect().
Swaps set other with this set. This operation is very fast and never fails.
Returns a new QList containing the elements in the set. The order of the elements in the QList is undefined.
Example:
QSet<QString> set; set << "red" << "green" << "blue" << ... << "black"; QList<QString> list = set.toList(); std::sort(list.begin(), list.end());
Note: Since Qt 5.14, range constructors are available for Qt's generic container classes and should be used in place of this method.
See also fromList() and QList::fromSet().
Each item in the other set that isn't already in this set is inserted into this set. A reference to this set is returned.
See also operator|=(), intersect(), and subtract().

This is the same as toList().
Note: Since Qt 5.14, range constructors are available for Qt's generic container classes and should be used in place of this method.
See also fromList() and QList::fromSet().
