Detailed Description

QModelRoleData objects store an item role (which is a value from the Qt::ItemDataRole enumeration, or an arbitrary integer for a custom role) as well as the data associated with that role.

A QModelRoleData object is typically created by views or delegates, setting which role they want to fetch the data for. The object is then passed to models (see QAbstractItemModel::multiData()), which populate the data corresponding to the role stored. Finally, the view visualizes the data retrieved from the model.
