[SOLVED] How can I override a text line in txt file.

[SGaist]

Hi,

One question first: is that the only content of your file ?

[Neutrox]

In my txt file has just 3 paths that I can override.

Hii

your given code is working right if i remove line 11.
i have doubt on line 11
What is this _directory3 ?
is this same as item1 or item2 ?
if yes How are you getting _directory3 ?

[SGaist]

Then you should just read the file line by line in e.g. a QStringList. Replace the line you modified in the QStringList and then overwrite the content of the original file with the content of the QStringList.

[Neutrox]

Can you show me an example with this?

[SGaist]

Of reading a file line by line ?

[Neutrox]

No. I don't now how to use QStringList in this case.

[SGaist]

Then please, take some time to read the documentation of this class.
One way:
@QStringList lines
//open file etc.
while(!steam.atEnd()) {
lines << stram.readLine();
} @

There are also other way to do that e.g. using QString::split

[Neutrox]

The solution was simpler than I imagined.
Simply put:
@if(!file3.open(QFile::ReadWrite | QFile::Truncate)){
qDebug() << "could not open file for writing";
return;@

[SGaist]

With that you don't just change one line like you ask for, you are overwriting everything.

[Neutrox]

Yes, but I also rewrite those who have not been changed.
