46 * @brief Base class for model implementations used by KItemListView and KItemListController.
48 * An item-model consists of a variable number of items. The number of items
49 * is given by KItemModelBase::count(). The data of an item is accessed by a unique index
50 * with KItemModelBase::data(). The indexes are integer-values counting from 0 to the
51 * KItemModelBase::count() - 1.
53 * One item consists of a variable number of role/value-pairs.
55 * A model can optionally provide sorting- and grouping-capabilities.
57 * Also optionally it is possible to provide a tree of items by implementing the methods
58 * setExpanded(), isExpanded(), isExpandable() and expandedParentsCount().
