[Doxygen-develop] thoughts on replacing qtools with stl ?

[Adrian M N. <gr...@gm...>]

Hi,

I discovered QList to be pretty slow compared to std::list.
I did the test in a rough way by just iterating g_inputFiles in
doxygen.cpp:parseFiles().
Ofc, after the call site of parseFiles() I exited doxygen thus no
documentation was generated.

The times obtained were 29seconds using StringList vs. 2seconds using
std::list<QCString>.
The sources on which I ran doxygen consisted of
libva/libdrm/mesa-library which amounts to
a few thousands of files.

Now, considering that QList is used in other places, is it sane to
also use std::list instead of QList ?

thanks
