## Detailed Description

An index refers to a single table or view in a database. Information about the fields that comprise the index can be used to generate SQL statements.

## Member Function Documentation

### QSqlIndex::QSqlIndex(const QSqlIndex &other)

Constructs a copy of other.

### QSqlIndex::QSqlIndex(const QString &cursorname = QString(), const QString &name = QString())

Constructs an empty index using the cursor name cursorname and index name name.

### QSqlIndex &QSqlIndex::operator=(const QSqlIndex &other)

Sets the index equal to other.

### QSqlIndex::~QSqlIndex()

Destroys the object and frees any allocated resources.

### void QSqlIndex::append(const QSqlField &field)

Appends the field field to the list of indexed fields. The field is appended with an ascending sort order.

### void QSqlIndex::append(const QSqlField &field, bool desc)

This is an overloaded function.

Appends the field field to the list of indexed fields. The field is appended with an ascending sort order, unless desc is true.

### QString QSqlIndex::cursorName() const

Returns the name of the cursor which the index is associated with.

See also setCursorName().

### bool QSqlIndex::isDescending(int i) const

Returns `true` if field i in the index is sorted in descending order; otherwise returns `false`.

### QString QSqlIndex::name() const

Returns the name of the index.

See also setName().

### void QSqlIndex::setCursorName(const QString &cursorName)

Sets the name of the cursor that the index is associated with to cursorName.

See also cursorName().

### void QSqlIndex::setDescending(int i, bool desc)

If desc is true, field i is sorted in descending order. Otherwise, field i is sorted in ascending order (the default). If the field does not exist, nothing happens.

See also isDescending().

### void QSqlIndex::setName(const QString &name)

Sets the name of the index to name.

See also name().
