Why object be deleted without obvious code?

In qt, I use tablewidget to store 100 rows. At first, I new tableWidgetItems to fill the rows. As it runs, I set the items' propertities and no longer 'new'. But I find after I use 'ui->tableWidget->setRowCount(index);', and later set back to 100, the code "ui->tableWidget->item(index, 0)->setText(...);" will crash the program. That's so bad!!! ;( I debugged and find the new index > index set as row count before 'setting back to 100'.

Did the system delete the table items automatically when I set smaller row count???

I fear about this so much because even my code cannot determine the lifetime of the objects I created... Does anyone know how to keep them 'alive' after setting row count?(otherwise, I have to new them...). I really appreciate it you take the patience to read my poor ELis:)

new:

//TABLE
    ui->tableWidget->setColumnCount(3);
    ui->tableWidget->setRowCount(100);
    ui->tableWidget->setHorizontalHeaderLabels(headers);

    for(int i = 0; i < 100; i++)//new
    {
        ui->tableWidget->setItem( i, 0 , new QTableWidgetItem(""));//time
        ui->tableWidget->setItem( i, 1 , new QTableWidgetItem(""));//name
        ui->tableWidget->setItem( i, 2 , new QTableWidgetItem(""));//BITS
    }

Related code lines only:

   {
    int  index = 0;
    for(int queue_i = size_1; queue_i >= 0; queue_i--)
    {


        if(logDisplayQueue.at(queue_i).at(3) == "0" ||   logDisplayQueue.at(queue_i).at(3) == "2")continue;


        QStringList BITList = bits2Hexs(queue_i);


     ui->tableWidget->item(index, 0)->setText(logDisplayQueue.at(queue_i).at(0));//time
     ui->tableWidget->item(index, 1)->setText(logDisplayQueue.at(queue_i).at(1));//name
     ui->tableWidget->item(index, 2)->setText(BITList.join(""));//BITS

        if(queue_i == oldRowItemNo)ui->tableWidget->selectRow(index);
        index++;
    }

        ui->tableWidget->setRowCount(index);//set row count to be 30 more or less
    }

Another function:

    {

        ui->tableWidget->setRowCount(100);//back to be 100 again


        for(int queue_i = size_1, index = 0; queue_i >= 0; queue_i--, index++)
        {

            QStringList BITList = bits2Hexs(queue_i);
     ui->tableWidget->item(index, 0)->setText(logDisplayQueue.at(queue_i).at(0));//time
     ui->tableWidget->item(index, 1)->setText(logDisplayQueue.at(queue_i).at(1));//name
     ui->tableWidget->item(index, 2)->setText(BITList.join(""));//BITS
//In debugging, when index reches the value of old row-count, "->setText" crashes the    //program.


            if(queue_i == oldRowItemNo)ui->tableWidget->selectRow(index);
        }

    }

When running, it returns message like 'instruction 0x00421727 refers to 0x00000000 memory, the memory cannot be 'read''

if I comment off this line: 'ui->tableWidget->setRowCount(index);//set row count to be 30 more or less', it runs well without crash and rows after index-referred-row show the same data as before.

setRowCount ensures that the table holds exactly that many rows. If you had more rows than index before, those rows are gone (deleted).

If you want to temporarily hide rows, you should probably use hideRow(int)/showRow rather than resetting the row count.
