Detailed Description▲
QJsonObject::iterator allows you to iterate over a QJsonObject and to modify the value (but not the key) stored under a particular key. If you want to iterate over a const QJsonObject, you should use QJsonObject::const_iterator. It is generally good practice to use QJsonObject::const_iterator on a non-const QJsonObject as well, unless you need to change the QJsonObject through the iterator. Const iterators are slightly faster, and improve code readability.
The default QJsonObject::iterator constructor creates an uninitialized iterator. You must initialize it using a QJsonObject function like QJsonObject::begin(), QJsonObject::end(), or QJsonObject::find() before you can start iterating.
Multiple iterators can be used on the same object. Existing iterators will however become dangling once the object gets modified.

Member Type Documentation▲
iterator::iterator_category▲
A synonym for std::random_access_iterator_tag indicating this iterator is a random-access iterator.
In Qt versions before 5.6, this was set by mistake to std::bidirectional_iterator_tag.

bool iterator::operator==(const const_iterator &other) const▲
bool iterator::operator==(const iterator &other) const
Returns true if other points to the same item as this iterator; otherwise returns false.

bool iterator::operator!=(const const_iterator &other) const▲
bool iterator::operator!=(const iterator &other) const
Returns true if other points to a different item than this iterator; otherwise returns false.

See also operator==()
bool iterator::operator<(const const_iterator &other) const▲
bool iterator::operator<(const iterator &other) const
Returns true if the item pointed to by this iterator is less than the item pointed to by the other iterator.
bool iterator::operator<=(const const_iterator &other) const▲
bool iterator::operator<=(const iterator &other) const
Returns true if the item pointed to by this iterator is less than or equal to the item pointed to by the other iterator.
bool iterator::operator>(const const_iterator &other) const▲
bool iterator::operator>(const iterator &other) const
Returns true if the item pointed to by this iterator is greater than the item pointed to by the other iterator.
bool iterator::operator>=(const const_iterator &other) const▲
bool iterator::operator>=(const iterator &other) const
Returns true if the item pointed to by this iterator is greater than or equal to the item pointed to by the other iterator.
iterator::iterator()▲
Constructs an uninitialized iterator.
Functions like key(), value(), and operator++() must not be called on an uninitialized iterator. Use operator=() to assign a value to it before using it.

QString iterator::key() const▲
Returns the current item's key.
There is no direct way of changing an item's key through an iterator, although it can be done by calling QJsonObject::erase() followed by QJsonObject::insert().

See also value()
QJsonValueRef iterator::value() const▲
Returns a modifiable reference to the current item's value.
You can change the value of an item by using value() on the left side of an assignment.
The return value is of type QJsonValueRef, a helper class for QJsonArray and QJsonObject. When you get an object of type QJsonValueRef, you can use it as if it were a reference to a QJsonValue. If you assign to it, the assignment will apply to the element in the QJsonArray or QJsonObject from which you got the reference.

QJsonValueRef iterator::operator*() const▲
Returns a modifiable reference to the current item's value.
Same as value().
The return value is of type QJsonValueRef, a helper class for QJsonArray and QJsonObject. When you get an object of type QJsonValueRef, you can use it as if it were a reference to a QJsonValue. If you assign to it, the assignment will apply to the element in the QJsonArray or QJsonObject from which you got the reference.

iterator iterator::operator+(qsizetype j) const▲
Returns an iterator to the item at j positions forward from this iterator. If j is negative, the iterator goes backward.
See Also▲
See also operator-()
iterator &iterator::operator++()▲
The prefix ++ operator, ++i, advances the iterator to the next item in the object and returns an iterator to the new current item.
Calling this function on QJsonObject::end() leads to undefined results.
See Also▲
See also operator--()
iterator iterator::operator++(int)▲
This is an overloaded function.
The postfix ++ operator, i++, advances the iterator to the next item in the object and returns an iterator to the previously current item.
iterator &iterator::operator+=(qsizetype j)▲
Advances the iterator by j items. If j is negative, the iterator goes backward.
See Also▲
See also operator-=(), operator+()
iterator iterator::operator-(qsizetype j) const▲
Returns an iterator to the item at j positions backward from this iterator. If j is negative, the iterator goes forward.
See Also▲
See also operator+()
qsizetype iterator::operator-(iterator other) const▲
Returns the number of items between the item pointed to by other and the item pointed to by this iterator.
iterator &iterator::operator--()▲
The prefix – operator, --i, makes the preceding item current and returns an iterator pointing to the new current item.
Calling this function on QJsonObject::begin() leads to undefined results.
See Also▲
See also operator++()
iterator iterator::operator--(int)▲
This is an overloaded function.
The postfix – operator, i--, makes the preceding item current and returns an iterator pointing to the previously current item.
iterator &iterator::operator-=(qsizetype j)▲
Makes the iterator go back by j items. If j is negative, the iterator goes forward.

See also operator+=(), operator-()
const QJsonValueConstRef *iterator::operator->() const▲
Returns a pointer to a constant reference to the current item.
QJsonValueRef *iterator::operator->()▲
Returns a pointer to a modifiable reference to the current item.
QJsonValueRef iterator::operator[](qsizetype j) const▲
Returns a modifiable reference to the item at offset j from the item pointed to by this iterator (the item at position *this + j).
This function is provided to make QJsonObject iterators behave like C++ pointers.
The return value is of type QJsonValueRef, a helper class for QJsonArray and QJsonObject. When you get an object of type QJsonValueRef, you can use it as if it were a reference to a QJsonValue. If you assign to it, the assignment will apply to the element in the QJsonArray or QJsonObject from which you got the reference.
