Public Methods

void removeDuplicates ()
 Removes duplicate matches.

QStringList list (bool sort=true) const
 Returns the matches as a QStringList.

bool sorting () const
 If sorting() returns false, the matches aren't sorted by their weight, even if true is passed to list().


Detailed Description

This structure is returned by KCompletion::allWeightedMatches . List for keeping matches returned from KCompletion.

It also keeps the weight of the matches, allowing you to modify some matches or merge them with matches from another call to allWeightedMatches(), and sort the matches after that in order to have the matches ordered correctly

Example (a simplified example of what Konqueror's completion does):

 KCompletionMatches matches = completion->allWeightedMatches( location );
 if( !location.startsWith( "www." ))
       matches += completion->allWeightedmatches( "www." + location" );
 matches.removeDuplicates();
 QStringList list = matches.list();
