[Development] Proposal: Deprecate QVector in Qt 6

[Simon Hausmann]

Hi,

Ah yes, I'm suggesting to keep the implementation in Qt 6, so:

    Qt 6 QList == Qt 6 QVector and deprecate Qt 6 Vector.


Or differently put:

Currently:

    template <typename T> class QVector { $(implementation to be moved) }
    template <typename T> using QList = QVector<T>;

Proposed:

    template <typename T> using QVector = QList<T>; // mark deprecated
    template <typename T> class QList { $(implementation to be moved); }

I hope that clarifies the intent.

Simon

But keeping which implementation?

I.e. it's not clear if you are suggesting to make
   Qt6 QList == Qt5 QVector and deprecate Qt6 QVector
or
   Qt6 QList == Qt5 QList and deprecate Qt6 QVector

Cheers,
