We don't care about exceptions, so we won't be adding those. As for the move-versions, since we can't take move-only types in our containers due to the implicit sharing, does it really make a difference if we have them or not? > >> Option 3: > >> Create Qt API wrappers for those containers like std::deque, adding only > >> a > >> few inline functions to match the Qt-style API where the Standard > >> Library > >> > >> API deviates.

There's just a handful of functions that need different names, plus two more like takeFirst and takeLast that do two things in one. > > Option 5: > > Allow Standard Library containers in internal code even if performance or > > code size gains are not appreciable or have not been measured. > > Which again seems like a sensible thing to do in general, unless there > are documented cases in which Qt containers significantly outperform STL > ones (apart from implicit sharing). I would prefer the opposite: use non-Qt only if that is better than the Qt equivalent. If you can't prove it or if it's too small, it's not worth the difference in readability that it creates. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel Open Source Technology Center _______________________________________________ Development mailing list Development@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
