Using QSettings on Mac crashes on launch. Is there a fix?
-
You don't need a global QSettings. Just create one when you need to either read or write a setting and be done with it.
-
The bug report was about a corrupted file which doesn't match your use case.
All in all, since you have already built Qt with the patch applied, did you also test it for your use case ?
-
Still building ? What machine do you have ? What options did you pass to configure ?
-
If you only need the core modules for your application, just build qtbase, that will save you lots of times

@Crossy said:
QSettings settings;
void GlobalSettings::saveSetting(int day) // This function is defined statically in globalsettings.h.
{
settings.setValue("dayNumber", day);
}SGaist is right, the code should look like this:
void GlobalSettings::saveSetting(int day) // This function is defined statically in globalsettings.h.
{
QSettings settings; // <-- NOT a global
settings.setValue("dayNumber", day);
}This is much better than your current implementation, since the destructor of QSettings will save/sync the preferences right away.
And if the global is really what is causing the problem, that would fix it. -
@sandy.martel23 Thanks for your help :) It was the global causing the problem - after changing it to how you and SGaist suggested, it has worked :) Thank you!
