Dynamically & sequentially naming & instantiating widgets qt - c++

Question

I'm creating a new instance of QTableWidgetItem for each row the user may add, and adding it to a QVector of QTableWidgetItems.
I'd like to do soemthing like the following to name each instance in the following iteration with the row number included in the instance name:
QVector<QCheckBox> *checkBox_array;
for(int r=0;r<user_input;r++)
{
ui->tableWidget->insertRow(r);
*checkBox%1.arg(r) = new QCheckBox; //create an instance "checkBox1" here
checkBox_array->pushBack(checkBox%1.arg(r))
}
or something like the following, which does not compile in its current state:
for(int r=0;r<7;r++)
{
ui->tableWidget->insertRow(r);
checkBox_array->push_back();
checkBox_array[r] = new QCheckBox;
ui->tableWidget->setCellWidget(r,2,checkBox_array[r]);
}
is this possible? How can I work around this issue? All I need is to get the new widgets into the array without having to name them explicitly. Thanks in advance!
Thanks in advance.

Try something like this:
for(int r=0;r<7;r++)
{
ui->tableWidget->insertRow(r);
ui->tableWidget->setCellWidget(r,2,new QCheckBox(QString("checkBox%1").arg(r)));
}
It creates some widgets.
When you want change something in this widget or get data then use cellWidget() method, but don't forget cast it! For example:
for(int r=0;r<7;r++)
{
QCheckBox* curBox = qobject_cast<QCheckBox*>(ui->tableWidget->cellWidget(r,2));
if(curBox)
{
qDebug() << curBox->text() << curBox->isChecked();
curBox->setText("This is new Text");
}
else
qDebug() << "fail";
}
