<div class="descr">
<h2>Detailed Description</h2>
<p>The QMap::iterator class provides an STL-style non-const iterator for <a href="qmap.html">QMap</a> and <a href="qmultimap.html">QMultiMap</a>.</p>
<p><a href="qmap.html">QMap</a> features both <a href="containers.html#stl-style-iterators">STL-style iterators</a> and <a href="containers.html#java-style-iterators">Java-style iterators</a>. The STL-style iterators are more low-level and more cumbersome to use; on the other hand, they are slightly faster and, for developers who already know STL, have the advantage of familiarity.</p>
<p><a href="qmap.html">QMap</a><Key, T>::iterator allows you to iterate over a <a href="qmap.html">QMap</a> (or <a href="qmultimap.html">QMultiMap</a>) and to modify the value (but not the key) stored under a particular key. If you want to iterate over a const <a href="qmap.html">QMap</a>, you should use <a href="qmap-const-iterator.html">QMap::const_iterator</a>. It is generally good practice to use <a href="qmap-const-iterator.html">QMap::const_iterator</a> on a non-const <a href="qmap.html">QMap</a> as well, unless you need to change the <a href="qmap.html">QMap</a> through the iterator. Const iterators are slightly faster, and can improve code readability.</p>
<p>The default QMap::iterator constructor creates an uninitialized iterator. You must initialize it using a <a href="qmap.html">QMap</a> function like <a href="qmap.html#begin">QMap::begin</a>(), <a href="qmap.html#end">QMap::end</a>(), or <a href="qmap.html#find">QMap::find</a>() before you can start iterating. Here's a typical loop that prints all the (key, value) pairs stored in a map:</p>
<pre class="cpp"> <span class="type"><a href="qmap.html">QMap</a></span><span class="operator"><</span><span class="type"><a href="qstring.html">QString</a></span><span class="operator">,</span> <span class="type">int</span><span class="operator">></span> map;
map<span class="operator">.</span><a href="qmap.html#insert">insert</a>(<span class="string">"January"</span><span class="operator">,</span> <span class="number">1</span>);
map<span class="operator">.</span><a href="qmap.html#insert">insert</a>(<span class="string">"February"</span><span class="operator">,</span> <span class="number">2</span>);
<span class="operator">.</span><span class="operator">.</span><span class="operator">.</span>
map<span class="operator">.</span><a href="qmap.html#insert">insert</a>(<span class="string">"December"</span><span class="operator">,</span> <span class="number">12</span>);
<span class="type"><a href="qmap.html">QMap</a></span><span class="operator"><</span><span class="type"><a href="qstring.html">QString</a></span><span class="operator">,</span> <span class="type">int</span><span class="operator">></span><span class="operator">::</span>iterator i;
<span class="keyword">for</span> (i <span class="operator">=</span> map<span class="operator">.</span>begin(); i <span class="operator">!</span><span class="operator">=</span> map<span class="operator">.</span>end(); <span class="operator">+</span><span class="operator">+</span>i)
cout <span class="operator"><</span><span class="operator"><</span> i<span class="operator">.</span><a href="qmap-iterator.html#key">key</a>() <span class="operator"><</span><span class="operator"><</span> <span class="string">": "</span> <span class="operator"><</span><span class="operator"><</span> i<span class="operator">.</span><a href="qmap-iterator.html#value">value</a>() <span class="operator"><</span><span class="operator"><</span> endl;</pre>
<p>Unlike <a href="qhash.html">QHash</a>, which stores its items in an arbitrary order, <a href="qmap.html">QMap</a> stores its items ordered by key. Items that share the same key (because they were inserted using <a href="qmap.html#insertMulti">QMap::insertMulti</a>(), or due to a <a href="qmap.html#unite">unite</a>()) will appear consecutively, from the most recently to the least recently inserted value.</p>
<p>Let's see a few examples of things we can do with a QMap::iterator that we cannot do with a <a href="qmap-const-iterator.html">QMap::const_iterator</a>. Here's an example that increments every value stored in the <a href="qmap.html">QMap</a> by 2:</p>
<pre class="cpp"> <span class="type"><a href="qmap.html">QMap</a></span><span class="operator"><</span><span class="type"><a href="qstring.html">QString</a></span><span class="operator">,</span> <span class="type">int</span><span class="operator">></span><span class="operator">::</span>iterator i;
<span class="keyword">for</span> (i <span class="operator">=</span> map<span class="operator">.</span>begin(); i <span class="operator">!</span><span class="operator">=</span> map<span class="operator">.</span>end(); <span class="operator">+</span><span class="operator">+</span>i)
i<span class="operator">.</span><a href="qmap-iterator.html#value">value</a>() <span class="operator">+</span><span class="operator">=</span> <span class="number">2</span>;</pre>
<p>Here's an example that removes all the items whose key is a string that starts with an underscore character:</p>
<pre class="cpp"> <span class="type"><a href="qmap.html">QMap</a></span><span class="operator"><</span><span class="type"><a href="qstring.html">QString</a></span><span class="operator">,</span> <span class="type">int</span><span class="operator">></span><span class="operator">::</span>iterator i <span class="operator">=</span> map<span class="operator">.</span><a href="qmap.html#begin">begin</a>();
<span class="keyword">while</span> (i <span class="operator">!</span><span class="operator">=</span> map<span class="operator">.</span>end()) {
<span class="keyword">if</span> (i<span class="operator">.</span>key()<span class="operator">.</span>startsWith(<span class="string">"_"</span>))
i <span class="operator">=</span> map<span class="operator">.</span>erase(i);
<span class="keyword">else</span>
<span class="operator">+</span><span class="operator">+</span>i;
}</pre>
<p>The call to <a href="qmap.html#erase">QMap::erase</a>() removes the item pointed to by the iterator from the map, and returns an iterator to the next item. Here's another way of removing an item while iterating:</p>
<pre class="cpp"> <span class="type"><a href="qmap.html">QMap</a></span><span class="operator"><</span><span class="type"><a href="qstring.html">QString</a></span><span class="operator">,</span> <span class="type">int</span><span class="operator">></span><span class="operator">::</span>iterator i <span class="operator">=</span> map<span class="operator">.</span><a href="qmap.html#begin">begin</a>();
<span class="keyword">while</span> (i <span class="operator">!</span><span class="operator">=</span> map<span class="operator">.</span>end()) {
<span class="type"><a href="qmap.html">QMap</a></span><span class="operator"><</span><span class="type"><a href="qstring.html">QString</a></span><span class="operator">,</span> <span class="type">int</span><span class="operator">></span><span class="operator">::</span>iterator prev <span class="operator">=</span> i;
<span class="operator">+</span><span class="operator">+</span>i;
<span class="keyword">if</span> (prev<span class="operator">.</span>key()<span class="operator">.</span>startsWith(<span class="string">"_"</span>))
map<span class="operator">.</span>erase(prev);
}</pre>
<p>It might be tempting to write code like this:</p>
<pre class="cpp"> <span class="comment">// WRONG</span>
<span class="keyword">while</span> (i <span class="operator">!</span><span class="operator">=</span> map<span class="operator">.</span>end()) {
<span class="keyword">if</span> (i<span class="operator">.</span>key()<span class="operator">.</span>startsWith(<span class="string">"_"</span>))
map<span class="operator">.</span>erase(i);
<span class="operator">+</span><span class="operator">+</span>i;
}</pre>
<p>However, this will potentially crash in <tt>++i</tt>, because <tt>i</tt> is a dangling iterator after the call to <a href="qmap.html#erase">erase</a>().</p>
<p>Multiple iterators can be used on the same map. If you add items to the map, existing iterators will remain valid. If you remove items from the map, iterators that point to the removed items will become dangling iterators.</p>

<p>The postfix ++ operator (<tt>i++</tt>) advances the iterator to the next item in the map and returns an iterator to the previously current item.</p>

<p>Advances the iterator by <i>j</i> items. (If <i>j</i> is negative, the iterator goes backward.)</p>

<p>Returns an iterator to the item at <i>j</i> positions backward from this iterator. (If <i>j</i> is negative, the iterator goes forward.)</p>
<p>This operation can be slow for large <i>j</i> values.</p>

<p>The prefix -- operator (<tt>--i</tt>) makes the preceding item current and returns an iterator pointing to the new current item.</p>
<p>Calling this function on <a href="qmap.html#begin">QMap::begin</a>() leads to undefined results.</p>
