Yes. This should compile with GCC and Clang. It uses a C99 feature that is 
allowed in their C++ compilers known as Variable Length Array. But the code is 
non-standard and may not compile in other compilers.

If you want to make it portable, use QVector, QVarLengthArray or std::vector.

No, it's not.
