Using Custom Types with Model/View - Video

In this episode, I'll show how you can use your own custom types to communicate between a model and a delegate editing these custom types. My example is a Money class which contains a currency and an amount. The delegate will see Money instances, rather than parse them from their string representation.

NOTE: This video was filmed before Qt6 was out, and it seems that, contrary to rumors, the function registerConverter is still there: https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qmetatype.html#registerConverter.

The example code showcased in this video is available here: https://github.com/KDAB/kdabtv/tree/master/Qt-Widgets-and-more/CustomDataTypesInModel
