DESCRIPTION
       The QListView class implements a list/tree view.

       It can display and control a hierarchy of multi-column items, and
       provides the ability to add new items at any time. The user may select
       one or many items (depending on the SelectionMode) and sort the list in
       increasing or decreasing order by any column.

       The simplest pattern of use is to create a QListView, add some column
       headers using addColumn() and create one or more QListViewItem or
       QCheckListItem objects with the QListView as parent:

	       QListView * table;

	       table->addColumn( "Qualified name" );
	       table->addColumn( "Namespace" );

		   element = new QListViewItem( table, qName, namespaceURI );

       Further nodes can be added to the list view object (the root of the
       tree) or as child nodes to QListViewItems:

		   for ( int i = 0 ; i < attributes.length(); i++ ) {
		       new QListViewItem( element, attributes.qName(i), attributes.uri(i) );
		   }

       (From xml/tagreader-with-features/structureparser.cpp)

       The main setup functions are: <center>.nf

       </center>

       To handle events such as mouse presses on the list view, derived
       classes can reimplement the QScrollView functions:
       contentsMousePressEvent, contentsMouseReleaseEvent,
       contentsMouseDoubleClickEvent, contentsMouseMoveEvent,
       contentsDragEnterEvent, contentsDragMoveEvent, contentsDragLeaveEvent,
       contentsDropEvent, and contentsWheelEvent.

       There are also several functions for mapping between items and
       coordinates. itemAt() returns the item at a position on-screen,
       itemRect() returns the rectangle an item occupies on the screen, and
       itemPos() returns the position of any item (whether it is on-screen or
       not). firstChild() returns the list view's first item (not necessarily
       visible on-screen).

       You can iterate over visible items using QListViewItem::itemBelow();
       over a list view's top-level items using QListViewItem::firstChild()
       and QListViewItem::nextSibling(); or every item using a
       QListViewItemIterator. See the QListViewItem documentation for examples
       of traversal.

       An item can be moved amongst its siblings using
       QListViewItem::moveItem(). To move an item in the hierarchy use
       takeItem() and insertItem(). Item's (and all their child items) are
       deleted with delete; to delete all the list view's items use clear().

       There are a variety of selection modes described in the
       QListView::SelectionMode documentation. The default is Single
       selection, which you can change using setSelectionMode().

       Because QListView offers multiple selection it must display keyboard
       focus and selection state separately. Therefore there are functions
       both to set the selection state of an item (setSelected()) and to set
       which item displays keyboard focus (setCurrentItem()).

       QListView emits two groups of signals; one group signals changes in
       selection/focus state and one indicates selection. The first group
       consists of selectionChanged() (applicable to all list views),
       selectionChanged(QListViewItem*) (applicable only to a Single selection
       list view), and currentChanged(QListViewItem*). The second group
       consists of doubleClicked(QListViewItem*),
       returnPressed(QListViewItem*), rightButtonClicked(QListViewItem*, const
       QPoint&, int), etc.

       Note that changing the state of the list view in a slot connected to a
       list view signal may cause unexpected side effects. If you need to
       change the list view's state in response to a signal, use a single shot
       timer with a time out of 0, and connect this timer to a slot that
       modifies the list view's state.

       In Motif style, QListView deviates fairly strongly from the look and
       feel of the Motif hierarchical tree view. This is done mostly to
       provide a usable keyboard interface and to make the list view look
       better with a white background.

       If selectionMode() is Single (the default) the user can select one item
       at a time, e.g. by clicking an item with the mouse, see
       QListView::SelectionMode for details.

       The list view can be navigated either using the mouse or the keyboard.
       Clicking a - icon closes an item (hides its children) and clicking a +
       icon opens an item (shows its children). The keyboard controls are
       these: <center>.nf

       </center>

       If the user starts typing letters with the focus in the list view an
       incremental search will occur. For example if the user types 'd' the
       current item will change to the first item that begins with the letter
       'd'; if they then type 'a', the current item will change to the first
       item that begins with 'da', and so on. If no item begins with the
       letters they type the current item doesn't change.

       Warning: The list view assumes ownership of all list view items and
       will delete them when it does not need them any more.

   Member Type Documentation
QListView::RenameAction
       This enum describes whether a rename operation is accepted if the
       rename editor loses focus without the user pressing Enter.

       QListView::Accept - Rename if Enter is pressed or focus is lost.

       QListView::Reject - Discard the rename operation if focus is lost (and
       Enter has not been pressed).

QListView::ResizeMode
       This enum describes how the list view's header adjusts to resize events
       which affect the width of the list view.

       QListView::NoColumn - The columns do not get resized in resize events.

       QListView::AllColumns - All columns are resized equally to fit the
       width of the list view.

       QListView::LastColumn - The last column is resized to fit the width of
       the list view.

QListView::SelectionMode
       This enumerated type is used by QListView to indicate how it reacts to
       selection by the user.

       QListView::Single - When the user selects an item, any already-selected
       item becomes unselected. The user can unselect the selected item by
       clicking on some empty space within the view.

       QListView::Multi - When the user selects an item in the usual way, the
       selection status of that item is toggled and the other items are left
       alone. Also, multiple items can be selected by dragging the mouse while
       the left mouse button stays pressed.

       QListView::Extended - When the user selects an item in the usual way,
       the selection is cleared and the new item selected. However, if the
       user presses the Ctrl key when clicking on an item, the clicked item
       gets toggled and all other items are left untouched. And if the user
       presses the Shift key while clicking on an item, all items between the
       current item and the clicked item get selected or unselected, depending
       on the state of the clicked item. Also, multiple items can be selected
       by dragging the mouse over them.

       QListView::NoSelection - Items cannot be selected.

       In other words, Single is a real single-selection list view, Multi a
       real multi-selection list view, Extended is a list view where users can
       select multiple items but usually want to select either just one or a
       range of contiguous items, and NoSelection is a list view where the
       user can look but not touch.

QListView::WidthMode
       This enum type describes how the width of a column in the view changes.

       QListView::Manual - the column width does not change automatically.

       QListView::Maximum - the column is automatically sized according to the
       widths of all items in the column. (Note: The column never shrinks in
       this case.) This means that the column is always resized to the width
       of the item with the largest width in the column.

       See also setColumnWidth(), setColumnWidthMode(), and columnWidth().

MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION
QListView::QListView ( QWidget * parent = 0, const char * name = 0, WFlags f =
       0 )
       Constructs a new empty list view called name with parent parent.

       Performance is boosted by modifying the widget flags f so that only
       part of the QListViewItem children is redrawn. This may be unsuitable
       for custom QListViewItem classes, in which case WStaticContents and
       WNoAutoErase should be cleared.

       See also QWidget::clearWFlags() and Qt::WidgetFlags.

QListView::~QListView ()
       Destroys the list view, deleting all its items, and frees up all
       allocated resources.

int QListView::addColumn ( const QString & label, int width = -1 ) [virtual]
       Adds a width pixels wide column with the column header label to the
       list view, and returns the index of the new column.

       All columns apart from the first one are inserted to the right of the
       existing ones.

       If width is negative, the new column's WidthMode is set to Maximum
       instead of Manual.

       See also setColumnText(), setColumnWidth(), and setColumnWidthMode().

       Examples:

int QListView::addColumn ( const QIconSet & iconset, const QString & label,
       int width = -1 ) [virtual]
       This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It
       behaves essentially like the above function.

       Adds a width pixels wide new column with the header label and the
       iconset to the list view, and returns the index of the column.

       If width is negative, the new column's WidthMode is set to Maximum, and
       to Manual otherwise.

       See also setColumnText(), setColumnWidth(), and setColumnWidthMode().

void QListView::adjustColumn ( int col ) [slot]
       Adjusts the column col to its preferred width

bool QListView::allColumnsShowFocus () const
       Returns TRUE if items should show keyboard focus using all columns;
       otherwise returns FALSE. See the "allColumnsShowFocus" property for
       details.

int QListView::childCount () const
       Returns the number of parentless (top-level) QListViewItem objects in
       this QListView. See the "childCount" property for details.

void QListView::clear () [virtual slot]
       Removes and deletes all the items in this list view and triggers an
       update.

       Note that the currentChanged() signal is not emitted when this slot is
       invoked.

       See also triggerUpdate().

       Examples:

void QListView::clearSelection () [virtual]
       Sets all the items to be not selected, updates the list view as
       necessary, and emits the selectionChanged() signals. Note that for
       Multi selection list views this function needs to iterate over all
       items.

       See also setSelected() and multiSelection.

       Example: addressbook/centralwidget.cpp.

void QListView::clicked ( QListViewItem * item ) [signal]
       This signal is emitted whenever the user clicks (mouse pressed and
       mouse released) in the list view. item is the clicked list view item,
       or 0 if the user didn't click on an item.

       Warning: Do not delete any QListViewItem objects in slots connected to
       this signal.

       Example: addressbook/centralwidget.cpp.

void QListView::clicked ( QListViewItem * item, const QPoint & pnt, int c )
       [signal]
       This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It
       behaves essentially like the above function.

       This signal is emitted whenever the user clicks (mouse pressed and
       mouse released) in the list view. item is the clicked list view item,
       or 0 if the user didn't click on an item. pnt is the position where the
       user has clicked in global coordinates. If item is not 0, c is the list
       view column into which the user pressed; if item is 0 c's value is
       undefined.

       Warning: Do not delete any QListViewItem objects in slots connected to
       this signal.

void QListView::collapsed ( QListViewItem * item ) [signal]
       This signal is emitted when the item has been collapsed, i.e. when the
       children of item are hidden.

       See also setOpen() and expanded().

int QListView::columnAlignment ( int column ) const
       Returns the alignment of column column. The default is AlignAuto.

       See also Qt::AlignmentFlags.

QString QListView::columnText ( int c ) const
       Returns the text of column c.

       See also setColumnText().

int QListView::columnWidth ( int c ) const
       Returns the width of column c.

       See also setColumnWidth().

WidthMode QListView::columnWidthMode ( int c ) const
       Returns the WidthMode for column c.

       See also setColumnWidthMode().

int QListView::columns () const
       Returns the number of columns in this list view. See the "columns"
       property for details.

void QListView::contentsMouseDoubleClickEvent ( QMouseEvent * e ) [virtual
       protected]
       Processes the mouse double-click event e on behalf of the viewed
       widget.

       Reimplemented from QScrollView.

void QListView::contentsMouseMoveEvent ( QMouseEvent * e ) [virtual protected]

       Processes the mouse move event e on behalf of the viewed widget.

       Example: dirview/dirview.cpp.

       Reimplemented from QScrollView.

void QListView::contentsMousePressEvent ( QMouseEvent * e ) [virtual
       protected]
       Processes the mouse press event e on behalf of the viewed widget.

       Example: dirview/dirview.cpp.

       Reimplemented from QScrollView.

void QListView::contentsMouseReleaseEvent ( QMouseEvent * e ) [virtual
       protected]
       Processes the mouse release event e on behalf of the viewed widget.

       Example: dirview/dirview.cpp.

       Reimplemented from QScrollView.

void QListView::contextMenuRequested ( QListViewItem * item, const QPoint &
       pos, int col ) [signal]
       This signal is emitted when the user invokes a context menu with the
       right mouse button or with special system keys. If the keyboard was
       used item is the current item; if the mouse was used, item is the item
       under the mouse pointer or 0 if there is no item under the mouse
       pointer. If no item is clicked, the column index emitted is -1.

       pos is the position for the context menu in the global coordinate
       system.

       col is the column on which the user pressed, or -1 if the signal was
       triggered by a key event.

       Example: listviews/listviews.cpp.

void QListView::currentChanged ( QListViewItem * ) [signal]
       This signal is emitted whenever the current item has changed (normally
       after the screen update). The current item is the item responsible for
       indicating keyboard focus.

       The argument is the newly current item, or 0 if the change made no item
       current. This can happen, for example, if all items in the list view
       are deleted.

       Warning: Do not delete any QListViewItem objects in slots connected to
       this signal.

       See also setCurrentItem() and currentItem().

       Example: listviews/listviews.cpp.

QListViewItem * QListView::currentItem () const
       Returns the current item, or 0 if there isn't one.

       See also setCurrentItem().

       Examples:

RenameAction QListView::defaultRenameAction () const
       Returns what action to perform when the editor loses focus during
       renaming. See the "defaultRenameAction" property for details.

void QListView::doAutoScroll () [protected slot]
       This slot handles auto-scrolling when the mouse button is pressed and
       the mouse is outside the widget.

void QListView::doubleClicked ( QListViewItem *, const QPoint &, int )
       [signal]
       This signal is emitted whenever an item is double-clicked. It's emitted
       on the second button press, not the second button release. The
       arguments are the relevant QListViewItem (may be 0), the point in
       global coordinates and the relevant column (or -1 if the click was
       outside the list).

       Warning: Do not delete any QListViewItem objects in slots connected to
       this signal.

void QListView::doubleClicked ( QListViewItem * item ) [signal]
       This function is obsolete. It is provided to keep old source working.
       We strongly advise against using it in new code. (use doubleClicked(
       QListViewItem *, const QPoint&, int ))

       This signal is emitted whenever an item is double-clicked. It's emitted
       on the second button press, not the second button release. item is the
       list view item on which the user did the double-click.

QDragObject * QListView::dragObject () [virtual protected]
       If the user presses the mouse on an item and starts moving the mouse,
       and the item allow dragging (see QListViewItem::setDragEnabled()), this
       function is called to get a drag object and a drag is started unless
       dragObject() returns 0.

       By default this function returns 0. You should reimplement it and
       create a QDragObject depending on the selected items.

void QListView::drawContentsOffset ( QPainter * p, int ox, int oy, int cx, int
       cy, int cw, int ch ) [virtual protected]
       Calls QListViewItem::paintCell() and QListViewItem::paintBranches() as
       necessary for all list view items that require repainting in the cw
       pixels wide and ch pixels high bounding rectangle starting at position
       cx, cy with offset ox, oy. Uses the painter p.

       Reimplemented from QScrollView.

void QListView::dropped ( QDropEvent * e ) [signal]
       This signal is emitted, when a drop event occurred on the viewport (not
       onto an item).

       e provides all the information about the drop.

void QListView::ensureItemVisible ( const QListViewItem * i )
       Ensures that item i is visible, scrolling the list view vertically if
       necessary and opening (expanding) any parent items if this is required
       to show the item.

       See also itemRect() and QScrollView::ensureVisible().

bool QListView::eventFilter ( QObject * o, QEvent * e ) [virtual]
       Redirects the event e relating to object o, for the viewport to
       mousePressEvent(), keyPressEvent() and friends.

       Reimplemented from QScrollView.

void QListView::expanded ( QListViewItem * item ) [signal]
       This signal is emitted when item has been expanded, i.e. when the
       children of item are shown.

       See also setOpen() and collapsed().

QListViewItem * QListView::findItem ( const QString & text, int column,
       ComparisonFlags compare = ExactMatch | CaseSensitive ) const
       Finds the first list view item in column column, that matches text and
       returns the item, or returns 0 of no such item could be found. The
       search starts from the current item if the current item exists,
       otherwise it starts from the first list view item. After reaching the
       last item the search continues from the first item. Pass OR-ed together
       Qt::StringComparisonMode values in the compare flag, to control how the
       matching is performed. The default comparison mode is case-sensitive,
       exact match.

QListViewItem * QListView::firstChild () const
       Returns the first item in this QListView. Returns 0 if there is no
       first item.

       A list view's items can be traversed using firstChild() and
       nextSibling() or using a QListViewItemIterator.

       See also itemAt(), QListViewItem::itemBelow(), and
       QListViewItem::itemAbove().

       Examples:

QHeader * QListView::header () const
       Returns the QHeader object that manages this list view's columns.
       Please don't modify the header behind the list view's back.

       You may safely call QHeader::setClickEnabled(),
       QHeader::setResizeEnabled(), QHeader::setMovingEnabled(),
       QHeader::hide() and all the const QHeader functions.

       Examples:

void QListView::hideColumn ( int column )
       Hides the column specified at column. This is a convenience function
       that calls setColumnWidth( column, 0 ).

       Note: The user may still be able to resize the hidden column using the
       header handles. To prevent this, call setResizeEnabled(FALSE, column)
       on the list views header.

       See also setColumnWidth().

void QListView::insertItem ( QListViewItem * i ) [virtual]
       Inserts item i into the list view as a top-level item. You do not need
       to call this unless you've called takeItem(i) or
       QListViewItem::takeItem(i) and need to reinsert i elsewhere.

       See also QListViewItem::takeItem() and takeItem().

void QListView::invertSelection () [virtual slot]
       Inverts the selection. Only works in Multi and Extended selection
       modes.

bool QListView::isMultiSelection () const
       Returns TRUE if the list view is in multi-selection or extended-
       selection mode; otherwise returns FALSE. See the "multiSelection"
       property for details.

bool QListView::isOpen ( const QListViewItem * item ) const
       Identical to item->isOpen(). Provided for completeness.

       See also setOpen().

bool QListView::isRenaming () const
       Returns TRUE if an item is being renamed; otherwise returns FALSE.

bool QListView::isSelected ( const QListViewItem * i ) const
       Returns TRUE if the list view item i is selected; otherwise returns
       FALSE.

       See also QListViewItem::isSelected().

QListViewItem * QListView::itemAt ( const QPoint & viewPos ) const
       Returns the list view item at viewPos. Note that viewPos is in the
       viewport()'s coordinate system, not in the list view's own, much
       larger, coordinate system.

       itemAt() returns 0 if there is no such item.

       Note that you also get the pointer to the item if viewPos points to the
       root decoration (see setRootIsDecorated()) of the item. To check
       whether or not viewPos is on the root decoration of the item, you can
       do something like this:

	   QListViewItem *i = itemAt( p );
	   if ( i ) {
	       if ( p.x() > header()->sectionPos( header()->mapToIndex( 0 ) ) +
		       treeStepSize() * ( i->depth() + ( rootIsDecorated() ? 1 : 0) ) + itemMargin() ||
		       p.x() < header()->sectionPos( header()->mapToIndex( 0 ) ) ) {
		   ; // p is not on root decoration
	       else
		   ; // p is on the root decoration
	   }

       This might be interesting if you use this function to find out where
       the user clicked and if you want to start a drag (which you do not want
       to do if the user clicked onto the root decoration of an item).

       See also itemPos(), itemRect(), and viewportToContents().

int QListView::itemMargin () const
       Returns the advisory item margin that list items may use. See the
       "itemMargin" property for details.

int QListView::itemPos ( const QListViewItem * item )
       Returns the y-coordinate of item in the list view's coordinate system.
       This function is normally much slower than itemAt() but it works for
       all items, whereas itemAt() normally works only for items on the
       screen.

       This is a thin wrapper around QListViewItem::itemPos().

       See also itemAt() and itemRect().

QRect QListView::itemRect ( const QListViewItem * i ) const
       Returns the rectangle on the screen that item i occupies in
       viewport()'s coordinates, or an invalid rectangle if i is 0 or is not
       currently visible.

       The rectangle returned does not include any children of the rectangle
       (i.e. it uses QListViewItem::height(), rather than
       QListViewItem::totalHeight()). If you want the rectangle to include
       children you can use something like this:

	   QRect r( listView->itemRect( item ) );
	   r.setHeight( (QCOORD)(QMIN( item->totalHeight(),
				       listView->viewport->height() - r.y() ) ) )

       Note the way it avoids too-high rectangles. totalHeight() can be much
       larger than the window system's coordinate system allows.

       itemRect() is comparatively slow. It's best to call it only for items
       that are probably on-screen.

void QListView::itemRenamed ( QListViewItem * item, int col, const QString &
       text ) [signal]
       This signal is emitted when item has been renamed to text, e.g. by in
       in-place renaming, in column col.

       See also QListViewItem::setRenameEnabled().

void QListView::itemRenamed ( QListViewItem * item, int col ) [signal]
       This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It
       behaves essentially like the above function.

       This signal is emitted when item has been renamed, e.g. by in-place
       renaming, in column col.

       See also QListViewItem::setRenameEnabled().

QListViewItem * QListView::lastItem () const
       Returns the last item in the list view tree. Returns 0 if there are no
       items in the QListView.

       This function is slow because it traverses the entire tree to find the
       last item.

void QListView::mouseButtonClicked ( int button, QListViewItem * item, const
       QPoint & pos, int c ) [signal]
       This signal is emitted whenever the user clicks (mouse pressed and
       mouse released) in the list view at position pos. button is the mouse
       button that the user pressed, item is the clicked list view item or 0
       if the user didn't click on an item. If item is not 0, c is the list
       view column into which the user pressed; if item is 0 c's value is
       undefined.

       Warning: Do not delete any QListViewItem objects in slots connected to
       this signal.

void QListView::mouseButtonPressed ( int button, QListViewItem * item, const
       QPoint & pos, int c ) [signal]
       This signal is emitted whenever the user pressed the mouse button in
       the list view at position pos. button is the mouse button which the
       user pressed, item is the pressed list view item or 0 if the user
       didn't press on an item. If item is not 0, c is the list view column
       into which the user pressed; if item is 0 c's value is undefined.

       Warning: Do not delete any QListViewItem objects in slots connected to
       this signal.

void QListView::onItem ( QListViewItem * i ) [signal]
       This signal is emitted when the user moves the mouse cursor onto item
       i, similar to the QWidget::enterEvent() function.

void QListView::onViewport () [signal]
       This signal is emitted when the user moves the mouse cursor from an
       item to an empty part of the list view.

void QListView::paintEmptyArea ( QPainter * p, const QRect & rect ) [virtual
       protected]
       Paints rect so that it looks like empty background using painter p.
       rect is in widget coordinates, ready to be fed to p.

       The default function fills rect with the viewport()->backgroundBrush().

void QListView::pressed ( QListViewItem * item ) [signal]
       This signal is emitted whenever the user presses the mouse button in a
       list view. item is the list view item on which the user pressed the
       mouse button, or 0 if the user didn't press the mouse on an item.

       Warning: Do not delete any QListViewItem objects in slots connected to
       this signal.

void QListView::pressed ( QListViewItem * item, const QPoint & pnt, int c )
       [signal]
       This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It
       behaves essentially like the above function.

       This signal is emitted whenever the user presses the mouse button in a
       list view. item is the list view item on which the user pressed the
       mouse button, or 0 if the user didn't press the mouse on an item. pnt
       is the position of the mouse cursor in global coordinates, and c is the
       column where the mouse cursor was when the user pressed the mouse
       button.

       Warning: Do not delete any QListViewItem objects in slots connected to
       this signal.

void QListView::removeColumn ( int index ) [virtual]
       Removes the column at position index.

       If no columns remain after the column is removed, the list view will be
       cleared.

       See also clear().

void QListView::removeItem ( QListViewItem * item ) [virtual]
       This function is obsolete. It is provided to keep old source working.
       We strongly advise against using it in new code.

       This function has been renamed takeItem().

void QListView::repaintItem ( const QListViewItem * item ) const
       Repaints item on the screen if item is currently visible. Takes care to
       avoid multiple repaints.

void QListView::resizeEvent ( QResizeEvent * e ) [virtual protected]
       Ensures that the header is correctly sized and positioned when the
       resize event e occurs.

ResizeMode QListView::resizeMode () const
       Returns TRUE if all, none or the only the last column should be
       resized; otherwise returns FALSE. See the "resizeMode" property for
       details.

void QListView::returnPressed ( QListViewItem * ) [signal]
       This signal is emitted when Enter or Return is pressed. The argument is
       the currentItem().

void QListView::rightButtonClicked ( QListViewItem *, const QPoint &, int )
       [signal]
       This signal is emitted when the right button is clicked (i.e. when it's
       released). The arguments are the relevant QListViewItem (may be 0), the
       point in global coordinates and the relevant column (or -1 if the click
       was outside the list).

void QListView::rightButtonPressed ( QListViewItem *, const QPoint &, int )
       [signal]
       This signal is emitted when the right button is pressed. The arguments
       are the relevant QListViewItem (may be 0), the point in global
       coordinates and the relevant column (or -1 if the click was outside the
       list).

bool QListView::rootIsDecorated () const
       Returns TRUE if the list view shows open/close signs on root items;
       otherwise returns FALSE. See the "rootIsDecorated" property for
       details.

void QListView::selectAll ( bool select ) [virtual slot]
       If select is TRUE, all the items get selected; otherwise all the items
       get unselected. This only works in the selection modes Multi and
       Extended. In Single and NoSelection mode the selection of the current
       item is just set to select.

QListViewItem * QListView::selectedItem () const
       Returns the selected item if the list view is in Single selection mode
       and an item is selected.

       If no items are selected or the list view is not in Single selection
       mode this function returns 0.

       See also setSelected() and multiSelection.

void QListView::selectionChanged () [signal]
       This signal is emitted whenever the set of selected items has changed
       (normally before the screen update). It is available in Single, Multi,
       and Extended selection modes, but is most useful in Multi selection
       mode.

       Warning: Do not delete any QListViewItem objects in slots connected to
       this signal.

       See also setSelected() and QListViewItem::setSelected().

       Example: listviews/listviews.cpp.

void QListView::selectionChanged ( QListViewItem * ) [signal]
       This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It
       behaves essentially like the above function.

       This signal is emitted whenever the selected item has changed in Single
       selection mode (normally after the screen update). The argument is the
       newly selected item. If the selection is cleared (when, for example,
       the user clicks in the unused area of the list view) then this signal
       will not be emitted.

       In Multi selection mode, use the no argument overload of this signal.

       Warning: Do not delete any QListViewItem objects in slots connected to
       this signal.

       See also setSelected(), QListViewItem::setSelected(), and
       currentChanged().

SelectionMode QListView::selectionMode () const
       Returns the list view's selection mode. See the "selectionMode"
       property for details.

void QListView::setAllColumnsShowFocus ( bool ) [virtual]
       Sets whether items should show keyboard focus using all columns. See
       the "allColumnsShowFocus" property for details.

void QListView::setColumnAlignment ( int column, int align ) [virtual]
       Sets column column's alignment to align. The alignment is ultimately
       passed to QListViewItem::paintCell() for each item in the list view.
       For horizontally aligned text with Qt::AlignLeft or Qt::AlignHCenter
       the ellipsis (...) will be to the right, for Qt::AlignRight the
       ellipsis will be to the left.

       See also Qt::AlignmentFlags.

       Example: listviews/listviews.cpp.

void QListView::setColumnText ( int column, const QString & label ) [virtual]
       Sets the heading of column column to label.

       See also columnText().

void QListView::setColumnText ( int column, const QIconSet & iconset, const
       QString & label ) [virtual]
       This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It
       behaves essentially like the above function.

       Sets the heading of column column to iconset and label.

       See also columnText().

void QListView::setColumnWidth ( int column, int w ) [virtual]
       Sets the width of column column to w pixels. Note that if the column
       has a WidthMode other than Manual, this width setting may be
       subsequently overridden.

       See also columnWidth().

void QListView::setColumnWidthMode ( int c, WidthMode mode ) [virtual]
       Sets column c's width mode to mode. The default depends on the original
       width argument to addColumn().

       See also QListViewItem::width().

void QListView::setCurrentItem ( QListViewItem * i ) [virtual]
       Sets item i to be the current item and repaints appropriately (i.e.
       highlights the item). The current item is used for keyboard navigation
       and focus indication; it is independent of any selected items, although
       a selected item can also be the current item.

       This function does not set the selection anchor. Use
       setSelectionAnchor() instead.

       See also currentItem() and setSelected().

       Example: listviews/listviews.cpp.

void QListView::setDefaultRenameAction ( RenameAction a ) [virtual]
       Sets what action to perform when the editor loses focus during renaming
       to a. See the "defaultRenameAction" property for details.

void QListView::setItemMargin ( int ) [virtual]
       Sets the advisory item margin that list items may use. See the
       "itemMargin" property for details.

void QListView::setMultiSelection ( bool enable ) [virtual]
       Sets whether the list view is in multi-selection or extended-selection
       mode to enable. See the "multiSelection" property for details.

void QListView::setOpen ( QListViewItem * item, bool open ) [virtual]
       Sets item to be open if open is TRUE and item is expandable, and to be
       closed if open is FALSE. Repaints accordingly.

       See also QListViewItem::setOpen() and QListViewItem::setExpandable().

void QListView::setResizeMode ( ResizeMode m ) [virtual]
       Sets whether all, none or the only the last column should be resized to
       m. See the "resizeMode" property for details.

void QListView::setRootIsDecorated ( bool ) [virtual]
       Sets whether the list view shows open/close signs on root items. See
       the "rootIsDecorated" property for details.

void QListView::setSelected ( QListViewItem * item, bool selected ) [virtual]
       If selected is TRUE the item is selected; otherwise it is unselected.

       If the list view is in Single selection mode and selected is TRUE, the
       currently selected item is unselected and item is made current. Unlike
       QListViewItem::setSelected(), this function updates the list view as
       necessary and emits the selectionChanged() signals.

       See also isSelected(), multiSelection, multiSelection,
       setCurrentItem(), and setSelectionAnchor().

       Example: listviews/listviews.cpp.

void QListView::setSelectionAnchor ( QListViewItem * item )
       Sets the selection anchor to item, if item is selectable.

       The selection anchor is the item that remains selected when Shift-
       selecting with either mouse or keyboard in Extended selection mode.

       See also setSelected().

void QListView::setSelectionMode ( SelectionMode mode )
       Sets the list view's selection mode to mode. See the "selectionMode"
       property for details.

void QListView::setShowSortIndicator ( bool show ) [virtual]
       Sets whether the list view header should display a sort indicator to
       show. See the "showSortIndicator" property for details.

void QListView::setShowToolTips ( bool b ) [virtual]
       Sets whether this list view should show tooltips for truncated column
       texts to b. See the "showToolTips" property for details.

void QListView::setSortColumn ( int column )
       Sets the sorting column for the list view.

       If column is -1, sorting is disabled and the user cannot sort columns
       by clicking on the column headers. If column is larger than the number
       of columns the user must click on a column header to sort the list
       view.

       See also setSorting().

void QListView::setSortOrder ( SortOrder order )
       Sets the sort order for the items in the list view to order.

       See also setSorting().

void QListView::setSorting ( int column, bool ascending = TRUE ) [virtual]
       Sets the list view to be sorted by column column in ascending order if
       ascending is TRUE or descending order if it is FALSE.

       If column is -1, sorting is disabled and the user cannot sort columns
       by clicking on the column headers. If column is larger than the number
       of columns the user must click on a column header to sort the list
       view.

void QListView::setTreeStepSize ( int ) [virtual]
       Sets the number of pixels a child is offset from its parent. See the
       "treeStepSize" property for details.

bool QListView::showSortIndicator () const
       Returns TRUE if the list view header should display a sort indicator;
       otherwise returns FALSE. See the "showSortIndicator" property for
       details.

bool QListView::showToolTips () const
       Returns TRUE if this list view should show tooltips for truncated
       column texts; otherwise returns FALSE. See the "showToolTips" property
       for details.

void QListView::sort () [virtual]
       Sorts the list view using the last sorting configuration (sort column
       and ascending/descending).

int QListView::sortColumn () const
       Returns the column by which the list view is sorted, or -1 if sorting
       is disabled.

       See also sortOrder().

SortOrder QListView::sortOrder () const
       Returns the sorting order of the list view items.

       See also sortColumn().

void QListView::spacePressed ( QListViewItem * ) [signal]
       This signal is emitted when Space is pressed. The argument is the
       currentItem().

void QListView::startDrag () [virtual protected]
       Starts a drag.

void QListView::takeItem ( QListViewItem * i ) [virtual]
       Removes item i from the list view; i must be a top-level item. The
       warnings regarding QListViewItem::takeItem() apply to this function,
       too.

       See also insertItem().

int QListView::treeStepSize () const
       Returns the number of pixels a child is offset from its parent. See the
       "treeStepSize" property for details.

void QListView::triggerUpdate () [slot]
       Triggers a size, geometry and content update during the next iteration
       of the event loop. Ensures that there'll be just one update to avoid
       flicker.

void QListView::updateContents () [protected slot]
       Updates the sizes of the viewport, header, scroll bars and so on.

       Warning: Don't call this directly; call triggerUpdate() instead.

   Property Documentation
bool allColumnsShowFocus
       This property holds whether items should show keyboard focus using all
       columns.

       If this property is TRUE all columns will show focus and selection
       states, otherwise only column 0 will show focus.

       The default is FALSE.

       Setting this to TRUE if it's not necessary may cause noticeable
       flicker.

       Set this property's value with setAllColumnsShowFocus() and get this
       property's value with allColumnsShowFocus().

int childCount
       This property holds the number of parentless (top-level) QListViewItem
       objects in this QListView.

       Holds the current number of parentless (top-level) QListViewItem
       objects in this QListView.

       See also QListViewItem::childCount().

       Get this property's value with childCount().

int columns
       This property holds the number of columns in this list view.

       Get this property's value with columns().

       See also addColumn() and removeColumn().

RenameAction defaultRenameAction
       This property holds what action to perform when the editor loses focus
       during renaming.

       If this property is Accept, and the user renames an item and the editor
       loses focus (without the user pressing Enter), the item will still be
       renamed. If the property's value is Reject, the item will not be
       renamed unless the user presses Enter. The default is Reject.

       Set this property's value with setDefaultRenameAction() and get this
       property's value with defaultRenameAction().

int itemMargin
       This property holds the advisory item margin that list items may use.

       The item margin defaults to one pixel and is the margin between the
       item's edges and the area where it draws its contents.
       QListViewItem::paintFocus() draws in the margin.

       See also QListViewItem::paintCell().

       Set this property's value with setItemMargin() and get this property's
       value with itemMargin().

bool multiSelection
       This function is obsolete. It is provided to keep old source working.
       We strongly advise against using it in new code.

       This property holds whether the list view is in multi-selection or
       extended-selection mode.

       If you enable multi-selection, Multi, mode, it is possible to specify
       whether or not this mode should be extended. Extended means that the
       user can select multiple items only when pressing the Shift or Ctrl key
       at the same time.

       The default selection mode is Single.
