Autocompletion with qcompleter for fragments in the middle of a word

Question

Is there an example available of a QCompleter subclass that will provide autocompletions for fragments that appear in the middle of words?

eg:

Suppose you have the wordlist { "apple", "pear", "banana" }. When the user types 'p', the suggested autocompletions should be apple and pear, but not banana (because apple and pear both contain 'p' ); The default autocompletion will only suggest pear.

Answer 1

QtCreator 1.3 (that will be release soon) will have an extended completion that will allow to find a function by indicating only capital letter. See the video : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TyfO-7lvy_c&feature=player_embedded.

This is a behavior near to the one you want. Since QtCreator is open source you can have a look to its source code for a real example. For now I do not know the release date of this version so you will have to wait a little to see.
