并发过滤和过滤缩减

The QtConcurrent::filter(), QtConcurrent::filtered() and QtConcurrent::filteredReduced() functions filter items in a sequence such as a QList QVector in parallel. QtConcurrent::filter() modifies a sequence in-place, QtConcurrent::filtered() returns a new sequence containing the filtered content, and QtConcurrent::filteredReduced() returns a single result.

These functions are a part of the Qt Concurrent 框架。

Each of the above functions have a blocking variant that returns the final result instead of a QFuture . You use them in the same way as the asynchronous variants.

QStringList strings = ...;
// each call blocks until the entire operation is finished
QStringList lowerCaseStrings = QtConcurrent::blockingFiltered(strings, allLowerCase);
QtConcurrent::blockingFilter(strings, allLowerCase);
QSet<QString> dictionary = QtConcurrent::blockingFilteredReduced(strings, allLowerCase, addToDictionary);
					

Note that the result types above are not QFuture objects, but real result types (in this case, QStringList and QSet < QString >).

QtConcurrent::filtered() takes an input sequence and a filter function. This filter function is then called for each item in the sequence, and a new sequence containing the filtered values is returned.

The filter function must be of the form:

bool function(const T &t);
					

T must match the type stored in the sequence. The function returns true if the item should be kept, false if it should be discarded.

This example shows how to keep strings that are all lower-case from a QStringList :

bool allLowerCase(const QString &string)
{
    return string.lowered() == string;
}
QStringList strings = ...;
QFuture<QString> lowerCaseStrings = QtConcurrent::filtered(strings, allLowerCase);
					

The results of the filter are made available through QFuture 。见 QFuture and QFutureWatcher documentation for more information on how to use QFuture in your applications.

If you want to modify a sequence in-place, use QtConcurrent::filter():

QStringList strings = ...;
QFuture<void> future = QtConcurrent::filter(strings, allLowerCase);
					

Since the sequence is modified in place, QtConcurrent::filter() does not return any results via QFuture . However, you can still use QFuture and QFutureWatcher to monitor the status of the filter.

QtConcurrent::filteredReduced() is similar to QtConcurrent::filtered(), but instead of returing a sequence with the filtered results, the results are combined into a single value using a reduce function.

The reduce function must be of the form:

V function(T &result, const U &intermediate)
					

T is the type of the final result, U is the type of items being filtered. Note that the return value and return type of the reduce function are not used.

Call QtConcurrent::filteredReduced() like this:

void addToDictionary(QSet<QString> &dictionary, const QString &string)
{
    dictionary.insert(string);
}
QStringList strings = ...;
QFuture<QSet<QString> > dictionary = QtConcurrent::filteredReduced(strings, allLowerCase, addToDictionary);
					

The reduce function will be called once for each result kept by the filter function, and should merge the intermediate result variable. QtConcurrent::filteredReduced() guarantees that only one thread will call reduce at a time, so using a mutex to lock the result variable is not necessary. The QtConcurrent::ReduceOptions enum provides a way to control the order in which the reduction is done.

额外 API 特征

使用迭代器而不是序列

Each of the above functions has a variant that takes an iterator range instead of a sequence. You use them in the same way as the sequence variants:

QStringList strings = ...;
QFuture<QString> lowerCaseStrings = QtConcurrent::filtered(strings.constBegin(), strings.constEnd(), allLowerCase);
// filter in-place only works on non-const iterators
QFuture<void> future = QtConcurrent::filter(strings.begin(), strings.end(), allLowerCase);
QFuture<QSet<QString> > dictionary = QtConcurrent::filteredReduced(strings.constBegin(), strings.constEnd(), allLowerCase, addToDictionary);
					

使用成员函数

QtConcurrent::filter(), QtConcurrent::filtered(), and QtConcurrent::filteredReduced() accept pointers to member functions. The member function class type must match the type stored in the sequence:

// keep only images with an alpha channel
QList<QImage> images = ...;
QFuture<void> alphaImages = QtConcurrent::filter(images, &QImage::hasAlphaChannel);
// retrieve gray scale images
QList<QImage> images = ...;
QFuture<QImage> grayscaleImages = QtConcurrent::filtered(images, &QImage::isGrayscale);
// create a set of all printable characters
QList<QChar> characters = ...;
QFuture<QSet<QChar> > set = QtConcurrent::filteredReduced(characters, &QChar::isPrint, &QSet<QChar>::insert);
					

Note that when using QtConcurrent::filteredReduced(), you can mix the use of normal and member functions freely:

// can mix normal functions and member functions with QtConcurrent::filteredReduced()
// create a dictionary of all lower cased strings
extern bool allLowerCase(const QString &string);
QStringList strings = ...;
QFuture<QSet<int> > averageWordLength = QtConcurrent::filteredReduced(strings, allLowerCase, QSet<QString>::insert);
// create a collage of all gray scale images
extern void addToCollage(QImage &collage, const QImage &grayscaleImage);
QList<QImage> images = ...;
QFuture<QImage> collage = QtConcurrent::filteredReduced(images, &QImage::isGrayscale, addToCollage);
					

使用函数对象

QtConcurrent::filter(), QtConcurrent::filtered(), and QtConcurrent::filteredReduced() accept function objects, which can be used to add state to a function call. The result_type typedef must define the result type of the function call operator:

struct StartsWith
{
    StartsWith(const QString &string)
    : m_string(string) { }
    typedef bool result_type;
    bool operator()(const QString &testString)
    {
        return testString.startsWith(m_string);
    }
    QString m_string;
};
QList<QString> strings = ...;
QFuture<QString> fooString = QtConcurrent::filtered(images, StartsWith(QLatin1String("Foo")));
					

接受多个自变量的包裹函数

If you want to use a filter function takes more than one argument, you can use a lambda function or std::bind() to transform it onto a function that takes one argument.

As an example, we use QString::contains ():

bool QString::contains(const QRegularExpression &regexp) const;
					

QString::contains () takes 2 arguments (including the "this" pointer) and can't be used with QtConcurrent::filtered() directly, because QtConcurrent::filtered() expects a function that takes one argument. To use QString::contains () with QtConcurrent::filtered() we have to provide a value for the regexp 自变量:

QStringList strings = ...;
QFuture<QString> future = QtConcurrent::filtered(list, [](const QString &str) {
    return str.contains(QRegularExpression("^\\S+$")); // matches strings without whitespace
});
