您想要的是充当QSql*Model 和视图之间的桥梁的代理模型。为此，您需要继承 QAbstractProxyModel。您必须以一致的方式在代理模型中查找父子关系并将它们映射到源模型，因此可能需要在代理模型中保留一些计数。
当您对QAbstractProxyModel 进行子类化时，您至少需要重新定义这些方法：
- 行数
- 列数
- 父母
- 索引
- 数据
- mapToSource
- mapFromSource
另外，请记住QAbstractProxyModel 不会自动传播信号。因此，为了让视图知道源模型的变化（如插入、删除、更新），您需要在代理模型中传递它们（当然，在代理模型中更新您的映射）。
这需要一些工作，但最终您将拥有一个更灵活的结构。它将消除同步数据库和自定义QAbstractItemModel 所需的所有工作。
