<div class="descr">
<h2>Detailed Description</h2>
<p>The Q3ValueStack class is a value-based template class that provides a stack.</p>
<p>Define a template instance Q3ValueStack<X> to create a stack of values that all have the class X.</p>
<p>Note that Q3ValueStack does not store pointers to the members of the stack; it holds a copy of every member. That is why these kinds of classes are called "value based"; <a href="q3ptrstack.html">Q3PtrStack</a>, <a href="q3ptrlist.html">Q3PtrList</a>, <a href="q3dict.html">Q3Dict</a>, etc., are "pointer based".</p>
<p>A stack is a last in, first out (LIFO) structure. Items are added to the top of the stack with <a href="q3valuestack.html#push">push</a>() and retrieved from the top with <a href="q3valuestack.html#pop">pop</a>(). The <a href="q3valuestack.html#top">top</a>() function provides access to the topmost item without removing it.</p>
<p>Example:</p>
<pre class="cpp"> <span class="type">Q3ValueStack</span><span class="operator"><</span><span class="type">int</span><span class="operator">></span> stack;
stack<span class="operator">.</span><a href="q3valuestack.html#push">push</a>( <span class="number">1</span> );
stack<span class="operator">.</span><a href="q3valuestack.html#push">push</a>( <span class="number">2</span> );
stack<span class="operator">.</span><a href="q3valuestack.html#push">push</a>( <span class="number">3</span> );
<span class="keyword">while</span> ( <span class="operator">!</span> stack<span class="operator">.</span>isEmpty() )
cout <span class="operator"><</span><span class="operator"><</span> <span class="string">"Item: "</span> <span class="operator"><</span><span class="operator"><</span> stack<span class="operator">.</span><a href="q3valuestack.html#pop">pop</a>() <span class="operator"><</span><span class="operator"><</span> endl;
<span class="comment">// Output:</span>
<span class="comment">// Item: 3</span>
<span class="comment">// Item: 2</span>
<span class="comment">// Item: 1</span></pre>
<p>Q3ValueStack is a specialized <a href="q3valuelist.html">Q3ValueList</a> provided for convenience. All of <a href="q3valuelist.html">Q3ValueList</a>'s functionality also applies to <a href="q3ptrstack.html">Q3PtrStack</a>, for example the facility to iterate over all elements using Q3ValueStack<T>::Iterator. See <a href="q3valuelistiterator.html">Q3ValueListIterator</a> for further details.</p>
<p>Some classes cannot be used within a Q3ValueStack, for example everything derived from <a href="qobject.html">QObject</a> and thus all classes that implement widgets. Only values can be used in a Q3ValueStack. To qualify as a value, the class must provide</p>
<ul>
<li>a copy constructor;</li>
<li>an assignment operator;</li>
<li>a default constructor, i.e. a constructor that does not take any arguments.</li>
</ul>
<p>Note that C++ defaults to field-by-field assignment operators and copy constructors if no explicit version is supplied. In many cases this is sufficient.</p>

<h2>Member Function Documentation</h2>
<!-- $$$Q3ValueStack[overload1]$$$Q3ValueStack -->

<p>Destroys the stack. References to the values in the stack and all iterators of this stack become invalidated. Because <a href="q3valuestack.html" class="compat">Q3ValueStack</a> is highly tuned for performance, you won't see warnings if you use invalid iterators because it is impossible for an iterator to check whether or not it is valid.</p>

<!-- $$$pop[overload1]$$$pop -->
<h3 class="fn"><a name="pop"></a><span class="type">T</span> Q3ValueStack::<span class="name">pop</span> ()</h3>
