\class QVarLengthArray
\inmodule QtCore
\brief The QVarLengthArray class provides a low-level variable-length array.
\ingroup tools
\reentrant
The C++ language doesn't support variable-length arrays on the stack.
For example, the following code won't compile:
\snippet code/doc_src_qvarlengtharray.cpp 0
The alternative is to allocate the array on the heap (with
\c{new}):
\snippet code/doc_src_qvarlengtharray.cpp 1
However, if myfunc() is called very frequently from the
application's inner loop, heap allocation can be a major source
of slowdown.
QVarLengthArray is an attempt to work around this gap in the C++
language. It allocates a certain number of elements on the stack,
and if you resize the array to a larger size, it automatically
uses the heap instead. Stack allocation has the advantage that
it is much faster than heap allocation.
Example:
\snippet code/doc_src_qvarlengtharray.cpp 2
In the example above, QVarLengthArray will preallocate 1024
elements on the stack and use them unless \c{n + 1} is greater
than 1024. If you omit the second template argument,
QVarLengthArray's default of 256 is used.
QVarLengthArray's value type must be an \l{assignable data type}.
This covers most data types that are commonly used, but the
compiler won't let you, for example, store a QWidget as a value;
instead, store a QWidget *.
QVarLengthArray, like QVector, provides a resizable array data
structure. The main differences between the two classes are:
\list
\li QVarLengthArray's API is much more low-level and it lacks
some of QVector's functionality.
\li QVarLengthArray doesn't initialize the memory if the value is
a basic type. (QVector always does.)
\li QVector uses \l{implicit sharing} as a memory optimization.
QVarLengthArray doesn't provide that feature; however, it
usually produces slightly better performance due to reduced
overhead, especially in tight loops.
\endlist
In summary, QVarLengthArray is a low-level optimization class
that only makes sense in very specific cases. It is used a few
places inside Qt and was added to Qt's public API for the
convenience of advanced users.
