Remove rows from QAbstractListModel

I have a custom model which derives from QAbstractListModel which is exposed to QML. I need to support operations to add new items and remove existing items. While insertion operation works without any problems, removal operation causes the application to crash while calling endRemoveRows() function.

    void GPageModel::addNewPage()
    {
        if(m_pageList.count()<9)
        {
            beginInsertRows(QModelIndex(),rowCount(),rowCount());
            GPage * page = new GPage();
            QQmlEngine::setObjectOwnership(page,QQmlEngine::CppOwnership);
            page->setParent(this);
            page->setNumber(m_pageList.count());
            page->setName("Page " + QString::number(m_pageList.count()+1));
            m_pageList.append(page);
            endInsertRows();
        }
    }

    void GPageModel::removePage(const int index)
    {
        if(index>=0 && index<m_pageList.count())
        {        
            beginRemoveRows(QModelIndex(),index,index);
            qDebug()<<QString("beginRemoveRows(QModelIndex(),%1,%1)").arg(index);
            GPage * page = m_pageList.at(index);        
            m_pageList.removeAt(index);
            delete page;
            endRemoveRows();
        }
    }

The class GPage derives from QObject. I am struck trying to figure out what is causing the app to crash while trying to call endRemoveRows(). I get "ASSERT failure in QList::at: "index out of range"" when endRemoveRows() is called.How do I remove the rows from a QAbstracListModel? Is there any other way?

I am using Qt 5.1.0 on a Windows 7 64 bit machine.

The code below works fine for me. Your problem is probably elsewhere. This is for Qt 5 due to use of Qt Quick Controls.

There are two views accessing the same model, this visually confirms that the model emits proper signals to inform the views of the changes. The page additions and removals are done via the standard insertRows and removeRows methods, exported through Q_INVOKABLE. There's no need for any custom methods on this model, so far. The Q_INVOKABLE is a workaround for some missing functionality for the interface between QML and QAbstractItemModel.
