Fwd: KCategorizedView bug?

Hi there,

I can't use KCategorizedView: when I add more items -after the view has
been setup- then KCategorizedView calls recursively to visualRect and crash.

This is the bug I reported (it contains a simple use case in wich the class
fails):

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=303228

Also, you can reproduce the bug by adding more items in the
kdelibs/kdeui/kcategorized test or just by copy and paste this pastebin:

http://paste.kde.org/516338/

In short, the class doesn't behaviour like QListView (as stated in its
documentation): with QListView one can add or remove items after setup the
model and the view, on the other hand it seems that with KCategorizedView
can't add items after that.

Perhaps I'm not using correctly the class, it that case I think the
documentation should be changed.

Thanks in advance,
Percy

p.s: I tried to talk to ereslibre (irc) but it seems he is not online. I
also wrote to Alex Merry but he doesn't have the time now, please somebody
that knows about that class help me.

Alex, thanks for your time,

I understand the situation, widgets like KCategorizedView are nice examples
of the potential of qwidgets api (despite that the itemviews -specially the
delegates part- can be better)

I hope situation improve; if you want to reproduce the problem take the
KCategorizedViewTest and add more items after setup the view ... like this->

http://paste.kde.org/516338/

... maybe the last info can help when you have the time ;)

Thanks again for the reply,

Cheers,
Percy
