Writing to file but file is not created?

SGaist

Hi,

What error does QFile return ?

Hii pditty8811..
Why r you using break over here ..it is illegal to use..
I compiled and run your program it is working fine at my side ..and file is created too.Give a specified path to a file .

Hi guys thanks for responding. The break is there because all of this is actually in a case statement. I pulled it out of the case and it still doesn't work. If I run file.exists(), the file exists, and it also shows me the absolutepath with FileInfo, but I am unable to find the file on my computer.

What the hell is going on? I have hidden files shown and OS files unhidden.

I'm stumped.

Again: what error does QFile::error() return if open fails ?

pditty8811

QFile::error returns 0

pditty8811

The open does not fail.

From the QFile documentation:[quote]QFile expects the file separator to be '/' regardless of operating system. The use of other separators (e.g., '') is not supported.[/quote]

Tried it, no luck.

I'm using windows xp, and Windows 7. Both builds don't produce the file.

I FINALLY FIGURED IT OUT. It's and antivirus thing. AVAST wasn't letting me create the file. Shit balls. I wasted 2 days on that issue.

Ouch! I'm glad you've found a solution.
