[Interest] QMultiHash / QMultiMap: insert QList?

[Schimkowitsch Robert]

Hi there,

I saw this data structure:

QHash<SomeKey, QList<SomeValue>>

…and I was wondering: Why not use QMultiHash?
The rationale was that it’s easier to extract and re-insert whole blocks (i.e. all values sharing the same key), which is indeed a relevant use case for the surrounding code.

There IS QHash::values(key) -> QList<value>, but what’s missing is the opposite function: insert(key, QList<value>)

Any special reason for this omission? Did I overlook a direct way to insert a QList of multiple values with the same key with a single operation, that is (almost) as efficient as adding a whole new list to the QHash?

Thanks!

Robert
