QString Result from QSettings

Cryterion

Hi

The problem I'm having is when reading back String variables from a .conf file, only the first String read is valid, then the following String reads are not returning the Pre-Written string.

Here is the Read Function: -

@//***********************************************************************************************************
//
// Function : ReadRecipes
//
// Passed : void
// Returns : bool
//
// Reads the programmed recipe information from disk.
//***********************************************************************************************************
bool MainWindow::ReadRecipes()
{
TRecipeStruct *CurrentRecipe;
TRecipeStruct *LastRecipe;
unsigned int RecipeCount;
unsigned int RecipeMax;
QString RecipeCountStr;
QString TmpString;

RecipeCount = 0;
RecipeMax = 0;
QSettings Recipes("Anmar","Recipes");
Recipes.sync();
Recipes.beginGroup("RecipeCount");
RecipeMax = Recipes.value("Count",0).toInt();
Recipes.endGroup();
while (RecipeCount < RecipeMax)
{
    RecipeCount++;
    qApp->processEvents();
    CurrentRecipe = new TRecipeStruct();
    if (CurrentRecipe)
    {
        Recipes.beginGroup("RecipeNames");
        RecipeCountStr = "Recipe" + QString::number(RecipeCount);
        TmpString = Recipes.value(RecipeCountStr,"BlankName").toByteArray();
        CurrentRecipe->RecipeName = TmpString;
        Recipes.endGroup();
        Recipes.beginGroup(CurrentRecipe->RecipeName);
        CurrentRecipe->FlourWeight = Recipes.value("FlourWeight").toFloat();
        CurrentRecipe->SiloPercentage[0] = Recipes.value("Silo1Percent").toFloat();
        CurrentRecipe->SiloPercentage[1] = Recipes.value("Silo2Percent").toFloat();
        CurrentRecipe->SiloPercentage[2] = Recipes.value("Silo3Percent").toFloat();
        CurrentRecipe->SiloPercentage[3] = Recipes.value("Silo4Percent").toFloat();
        CurrentRecipe->WaterPercentage = Recipes.value("WaterPerecentage").toFloat();
        CurrentRecipe->DoughTemp = Recipes.value("DoughTemp").toFloat();
        CurrentRecipe->MixerTime = Recipes.value("Mixer1Time").toInt();
        CurrentRecipe->MixerConstant = Recipes.value("MixerConst1").toFloat();
        if (!SystemSetup->Recipes)
        {
            SystemSetup->Recipes = CurrentRecipe;
            CurrentRecipe->Prev = 0;
            CurrentRecipe->Next = 0;
        }
        else
        {
            LastRecipe = SystemSetup->Recipes;
            while(LastRecipe->Next)
            {
                LastRecipe = LastRecipe->Next;
                qApp->processEvents();
            }
            LastRecipe->Next = CurrentRecipe;
            CurrentRecipe->Prev = LastRecipe;
            CurrentRecipe->Next = 0;
        }
    }
}
return true;

An example .conf file.

Silo4Percent=@Variant(\0\0\0\x87\0\0\0\0)
WaterPercent=@Variant(\0\0\0\x87\0\0\0\0)@

With the above code, on first scan, recipe "Test1" is valid, whereas the next 2 the result returned from QSettings->value is the "BlankName" default result. Without a default value, "" is returned.

I have the same result with either

TmpString = Recipes.value(RecipeCountStr,"BlankName").toByteArray();

or

TmpString = Recipes.value(RecipeCountStr,"BlankName").toString();

In your code I don't see closing endGroup() for
@
Recipes.beginGroup(CurrentRecipe->RecipeName);
