Detailed Description

\inmodule QtCore

\reentrant

Since
5.0

The QJsonArray class encapsulates a JSON array.

\compares equality \compareswith equality QJsonValue \endcompareswith

A JSON array is a list of values. The list can be manipulated by inserting and removing QJsonValue's from the array.

A QJsonArray can be converted to and from a QVariantList. You can query the number of entries with size(), insert(), and removeAt() entries from it and iterate over its content using the standard C++ iterator pattern.

QJsonArray is an implicitly shared class and shares the data with the document it has been created from as long as it is not being modified.

You can convert the array to and from text based JSON through QJsonDocument.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ QJsonArray() [1/4]

QJsonArray::QJsonArray ( )
default

Creates an empty array.

◆ QJsonArray() [2/4]

QJsonArray::QJsonArray ( std::initializer_list< QJsonValue > args)
Since
5.4 Creates an array initialized from args initialization list.

QJsonArray can be constructed in a way similar to JSON notation, for example:

QJsonArray array = { 1, 2.2, QString() };
\inmodule QtCore\reentrant
Definition qjsonarray.h:18
GLenum array
[2]

Definition at line 134 of file qjsonarray.cpp.

◆ ~QJsonArray()

QJsonArray::~QJsonArray ( )
default

Deletes the array.

◆ QJsonArray() [3/4]

QJsonArray::QJsonArray ( const QJsonArray & other)
defaultnoexcept

Creates a copy of other.

Since QJsonArray is implicitly shared, the copy is shallow as long as the object doesn't get modified.

◆ QJsonArray() [4/4]

QJsonArray::QJsonArray ( QJsonArray && other)
noexcept
Since
5.10

Move-constructs a QJsonArray from other.
