If I'd like to filter on the IS NOT NULL condition using QSqlTableModel::setFilter(const QString &filter), what filter syntax should I pass to the method ?

  • Just wondering whether you read the documentation and understood it or not. 🤔 I think the docs are pretty straightforward about this.

From the docs:




The filter is a SQL WHERE clause without the keyword WHERE (for example, name='Josephine').




So an appropriate filter with IS NOT NULL would resemble



mySqlTableModel.setFilter("id IS NOT NULL");

  • Thanks! I tired with your answer before , it didn’t work , but a later examination showed that it is because I saved an empty string “” instead of null in the database that caused the filter failed , worked after changed to mySqlTableModel.setFilter(‘id IS NOT “”’).

  • Ahaha, so the issue wasn't actually related with is not null. :P At least you've figured out and traced where the issue lay.
