+
+
+
+The TQPtrCollection class is the base class of most pointer-based TQt collections.
+<p>
+
+<p> The TQPtrCollection class is an abstract base class for the TQt
+<a href="collection.html">collection classes</a> <a href="ntqdict.html">TQDict</a>, <a href="ntqptrlist.html">TQPtrList</a>,
+etc. TQt also includes value based collections, e.g. <a href="ntqvaluelist.html">TQValueList</a>,
+<a href="ntqmap.html">TQMap</a>, etc.
+<p> A TQPtrCollection only knows about the number of objects in the
+collection and the deletion strategy (see <a href="#setAutoDelete">setAutoDelete</a>()).
+<p> A collection is implemented using the <a href="#Item">Item</a> (generic collection
+item) type, which is a <tt>void*</tt>. The template classes that create
+the real collections cast the <a href="#Item">Item</a> to the required type.
+<p>See also <a href="collection.html">Collection Classes</a> and <a href="tools.html">Non-GUI Classes</a>.
+
+<hr><h2>Member Type Documentation</h2>
+<h3 class=fn><a name="Item"></a>TQPtrCollection::Item</h3>
+
+<p> This type is the generic "item" in a TQPtrCollection.
+
+<hr><h2>Member Function Documentation</h2>
+<h3 class=fn><a name="TQPtrCollection"></a>TQPtrCollection::TQPtrCollection ()<tt> [protected]</tt>
+</h3>
+
+<p> Constructs a collection. The constructor is protected because
+TQPtrCollection is an abstract class.
+
+<h3 class=fn><a name="TQPtrCollection-2"></a>TQPtrCollection::TQPtrCollection ( const&nbsp;<a href="ntqptrcollection.html">TQPtrCollection</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;source )<tt> [protected]</tt>
+</h3>
+
+<p> Constructs a copy of <em>source</em> with <a href="#autoDelete">autoDelete</a>() set to FALSE. The
+constructor is protected because TQPtrCollection is an abstract
+class.
+<p> Note that if <em>source</em> has autoDelete turned on, copying it will
+risk memory leaks, reading freed memory, or both.
+
+<h3 class=fn><a name="~TQPtrCollection"></a>TQPtrCollection::~TQPtrCollection ()<tt> [virtual protected]</tt>
+</h3>
+
+<p> Destroys the collection. The destructor is protected because
+TQPtrCollection is an abstract class.
+
+<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="autoDelete"></a>TQPtrCollection::autoDelete () const
+</h3>
+
+<p> Returns the setting of the auto-delete option. The default is FALSE.
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#setAutoDelete">setAutoDelete</a>().
+
+<h3 class=fn>void <a name="clear"></a>TQPtrCollection::clear ()<tt> [pure virtual]</tt>
+</h3>
+
+<p> Removes all objects from the collection. The objects will be
+deleted if auto-delete has been enabled.
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#setAutoDelete">setAutoDelete</a>().
+
+<p>Reimplemented in <a href="ntqasciicache.html#clear">TQAsciiCache</a>, <a href="ntqasciidict.html#clear">TQAsciiDict</a>, <a href="ntqcache.html#clear">TQCache</a>, <a href="ntqdict.html#clear">TQDict</a>, <a href="ntqintcache.html#clear">TQIntCache</a>, <a href="ntqintdict.html#clear">TQIntDict</a>, <a href="ntqptrlist.html#clear">TQPtrList</a>, <a href="ntqptrdict.html#clear">TQPtrDict</a>, and <a href="ntqptrvector.html#clear">TQPtrVector</a>.
+<h3 class=fn>uint <a name="count"></a>TQPtrCollection::count () const<tt> [pure virtual]</tt>
+</h3>
+
+<p> Returns the number of objects in the collection.
+
+<p>Reimplemented in <a href="ntqasciicache.html#count">TQAsciiCache</a>, <a href="ntqasciidict.html#count">TQAsciiDict</a>, <a href="ntqcache.html#count">TQCache</a>, <a href="ntqdict.html#count">TQDict</a>, <a href="ntqintcache.html#count">TQIntCache</a>, <a href="ntqintdict.html#count">TQIntDict</a>, <a href="ntqptrlist.html#count">TQPtrList</a>, <a href="ntqptrdict.html#count">TQPtrDict</a>, and <a href="ntqptrvector.html#count">TQPtrVector</a>.
+<h3 class=fn>void <a name="deleteItem"></a>TQPtrCollection::deleteItem ( <a href="ntqptrcollection.html#Item">Item</a>&nbsp;d )<tt> [pure virtual protected]</tt>
+</h3>
+
+<p> Reimplement this function if you want to be able to delete items.
+<p> Deletes an item that is about to be removed from the collection.
+<p> This function has to reimplemented in the collection template
+classes, and should <em>only</em> delete item <em>d</em> if auto-delete has
+been enabled.
+<p> <b>Warning:</b> If you reimplement this function you must also
+reimplement the destructor and call the virtual function <a href="#clear">clear</a>()
+from your destructor. This is due to the way virtual functions and
+destructors work in C++: Virtual functions in derived classes
+cannot be called from a destructor. If you do not do this, your
+<a href="#deleteItem">deleteItem</a>() function will not be called when the container is
+destroyed.
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#newItem">newItem</a>() and <a href="#setAutoDelete">setAutoDelete</a>().
+
+<h3 class=fn><a href="ntqptrcollection.html#Item">Item</a> <a name="newItem"></a>TQPtrCollection::newItem ( <a href="ntqptrcollection.html#Item">Item</a>&nbsp;d )<tt> [virtual protected]</tt>
+</h3>
+Virtual function that creates a copy of an object that is about to
+be inserted into the collection.
+<p> The default implementation returns the <em>d</em> pointer, i.e. no copy
+is made.
+<p> This function is seldom reimplemented in the collection template
+classes. It is not common practice to make a copy of something
+that is being inserted.
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#deleteItem">deleteItem</a>().
+
+<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setAutoDelete"></a>TQPtrCollection::setAutoDelete ( bool&nbsp;enable )
+</h3>
+
+<p> Sets the collection to auto-delete its contents if <em>enable</em> is
+TRUE and to never delete them if <em>enable</em> is FALSE.
+<p> If auto-deleting is turned on, all the items in a collection are
+deleted when the collection itself is deleted. This is convenient
+if the collection has the only pointer to the items.
+<p> The default setting is FALSE, for safety. If you turn it on, be
+careful about copying the collection - you might find yourself
+with two collections deleting the same items.
+<p> Note that the auto-delete setting may also affect other functions
+in subclasses. For example, a subclass that has a remove()
+function will remove the item from its data structure, and if
+auto-delete is enabled, will also delete the item.
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#autoDelete">autoDelete</a>().
