    Hi,
    I have following problem:
    I get the xml file from QNetworkReply.

       QFile newFile( "tmp.xml" );
       newFile.open( QIODevice::WriteOnly );
       newFile.write( reply->readAll() );
       newFile.close();
    

    The content is ok, but xml file is not formatted(all in one line).

    Does anybody know how can I restore xml formatting?

      Hi
      Use Qt Xml classes to read it in again ( or parse from reply->readAll())
      and write it to file formatted.
      You can give it directly to
      bool QDomDocument::setContent(const QString & text,..

      Something like ( not compiled. will have errors :)
      And please add error checking.

      void format(QByteArray xml)
      {
          QDomDocument doc; 
          doc.setContent(xml);
          QFile outFile("D:/output.xml");
          outFile.open(outFile.Text | outFile.WriteOnly);
          QTextStream stream(&outFile);
          doc.save(stream, DomNode::EncodingFromDocument);
      }

        @mrjj said in Restore xml file formatting:

        QDomDocument doc;

        Ok, it helped me a lot, but I suggest to use QDomNode::EncodingFromDocument option as a second parameter in save function.

        Thanks for help.
