how can i parser the .ini file?

[victor wang]

@J.Hilk
So if my INI file is not at the default path i should move it in to the right path?
Can't i give the direct path if i am not in the default path?

@victor-wang "Can't i give the direct path if i am not in the default path?" - isn't it what I provided before?
So here it is again:

QSettings settings("/PATH_TO_MY_INI_FILE/my_ini_file.ini", QSettings::IniFormat);

Just provide the complete path to the file, that's all.

I think i can set the path myself by UserScope.
But It has to be under /home.

Either you have a hard time understanding what answeres are give to you, or you're messing with us ;-)

@victor-wang
the ; should not at the end of foreach statement, or it will do nothing and finish the foreach statement, just like for statement.

you should write qDebug() not qDebug, you forget the parentheses.

@Flotisable
Sorry, i got this :)

Besides, i got a question.
Can i only read the key which the value is true?

[Flotisable]

@victor-wang
I think you have to write some code to test it, just read the key if it pass the test.

@Flotisable
Can i put value into array?
If it can, how can i do it?

[Flotisable]

@victor-wang
I think any data can be put into array, but what exactly you want ?

[victor wang]

@Flotisable
It is my code here

I wanna put childkey and values into array.
Then compare them.
But i don't know how to do it.
Please Help!

@victor-wang
if you just want to test if the value is true, I think you can do it in the foreach statement, like

  foreach( const QString &childkey, childkeys )
    if( settings.value( childkey ).toString() == "true" )
    {
      // do what you want
    }
