    Hi
    That is a bug in your code, most likely.

    Please use debugger and single step to find the line
    that gives it.

    Its very hard to guess by looking at code.

    You get a Stack overflow - which often is a infinite loop or something like that.

          Most likely in your delegate.
          You can insert break point in each function and single step when you reach it.
          That way you can find where it crashes.
          No way i can just guess it, sadly.

          if you think it crash in Notepad::test()
          single step should find it.

            Just wondering, but it seems you add a columnDelegate for every row you pass through. If I'm not mistaken, you should add a columnDelegate just once for the entire column.

            And you seem to use a for-statement for setting the columDelegate, while you only execute it once. That doesn't make sense to me.

            I'm not sure if this would fix anything of your problem, but I think you're code would benefit from it if you if you fixed this.

              @mrjj i did debug by using break points, everything is working fine , in .cpp file up to return app.exec(); in main.cpp , here it is getting crash and showing this error.

                  hi
                  Sounds like you crash when close down then/cleaning up.
                  I think
                  @Jan-Willem has a point of you setting multiple times.
                  setItemDelegateForColumn( column, comDel);
                  It might delete it multiple times.
                  So please try set only once. (for test)

                    In addidtion to @mrjj, I would suggest before or after the entire

                    for (int row = 0; row < 4; ++row)

                            The comDel is assigned to the entire column at index 0 with table->setItemDelegateForColumn(0, comDel).

                                Just for my curiosity?
                                Which version of Qt are you using?

                                  Just for my curiosity?
                                  Which version of Qt are you using?

                                  @Jan-Willem qt 4.8.3 on Visual Studio 2010

                                  and my code looks like this

                                  void Notepad::test() 
                                  {	    
                                  	
                                  	QTableWidgetItem* tableItem = new QTableWidgetItem();
                                  	
                                  	table->setRowCount(1);
                                  	table->setColumnCount(3);
                                  	table->setItem(0,0,new QTableWidgetItem());
                                  	table->setItem(0,1,new QTableWidgetItem());
                                  	table->setItem(0,2,new QTableWidgetItem());
                                  
                                  	table->setMouseTracking(true);
                                      table->viewport()->setMouseTracking(true);
                                      table->installEventFilter(this);
                                      table->viewport()->installEventFilter(this);

                                    Alright. Frankly I think you are making things more difficult than they have to be.

                                    First of all you shouldn't set the columndelegate inside the for-statement, since you set it multiple times for no reason. Once will do for the entire column, so do it before or after the for-statement.

                                    Second, you create a QStandardItemModel and use it with a QTabelWidget. A QTableWidget has it's own internal model.
                                    The QModelIndex returned by model.index(row, col, QModelIndex()) is not in your table, but in your QStandardItemModel.

                                    Perhaps you should read this first: Model/View Programming
