Mutable field #124

Open gamecreature opened 3 years ago

gamecreature commented 3 years ago

View components use mutable fields. Is this really required?

vadi2 commented 3 years ago

Which ones do you mean specifically?

Ah. I'd stay away from such a mechanic in my own code.

Well it's used for caching the width in the withHint() const call ... (Which interface is defined by QWidget so it cannot be changed)

Guess it isn't a big issue since width_ is a private member.
