No, it isn't.

This function is trying to hash the QString you passed it. Hashing only 
happens on hash or set keys. So find where the akey parameter was passed from:

At this point in the code, you made a call to contains(). The string you 
passed is not valid. You probably have dangling pointers or other problems if 
you managed to get an invalid QString.

You may want to try running your application in valgrind.
