Use a QMap in conjunction with a QList.

typedef QList<myItem>;

QDict<MyList> dict;

add(QString Key, myITem value)
{
   MyList *list = dict[key];
   if (!list)
   {
      list = new MyList();
      dict[key] = list;
   }
   list->append(value);
}

BTW. I have used this code in kcookiejar. Where is the cookie jar gone?
I can't find it anywere in CVS.

Cheers,
Waldo
