switch/case statement in C++ with a QString type

I want to use switch-case in my program but the compiler gives me this error:

switch expression of type 'QString' is illegal

How can I use the switch statement with a QString?

My code is as follows:

bool isStopWord( QString word )
{
bool flag = false ;

switch( word )
{
case "the":
    flag = true ;
    break ;
case "at" :
    flag = true ;
    break ;
case "in" :
    flag = true ;
    break ;
case "your":
    flag = true ;
    break ;
case "near":
    flag = true ;
    break ;
case "all":
    flag = true ;
    break ;
case "this":
    flag = true ;
    break ;
}

return flag ;
}
