QSettings not returning keys of the predefined .ini file
-
And in addition to what @raven-worx says, you need to use this constructor if you want to specify the filename.
Otherwise QSettings calculates the filename itself.

@thippu
with respect to your ini file from your first post you should call:iniSettings->beginGroup("Personal"); iniSettings->value("Age"); iniSettings->endGroup();or alternatively (if you don't have a group set!):
iniSettings->value("Personal/Age");@raven-worx Yes bro, in that
.iniexample,[groupname]// may grow and I want to scan them dynamically, how to do it? -
@raven-worx for
beginGroup(),iniSetting->beginGroup("[");// I doubt it will work as per.inifilestructure? -
-
@raven-worx okay, I have included in the constructor itself.
code:iniSettings=new QSettings(filename,QSettings::IniFormat,this);@thippu
and? it's working now? -
@thippu
and? it's working now? -
@thippu
and? it's working now?@raven-worx Yes, bro working. failure was the happing because of the constructor, after setting it properly it working now, I did
I can't thank enough to guys @raven-worx , @aha_1980qDebug()<<iniSettings->childGroups();//returns all the heading names```` -
@raven-worx bro, in
.ini) can grow, I want to scan them dynamically, so what to include inbeginGroup()?, please help me.@thippu
with the usage of the right Constructor your ini-file should be read correctly now.
So now you can use QSettings::childGroups() to traverse all groups and read the values as i described above or with the use of QSettings::beginGroup() and QSettings::childKeys()foreach( QString group, iniSettings->childGroups() ) { // process group iniSettings->beginGroup(group); foreach( QString key, iniSettings->childKeys() ) { QVariant val = iniSettings->value(key); // process val } iniSettings->endGroup(); }--- SUPPORT REQUESTS VIA CHAT WILL BE IGNORED ---
If you have a question please use the forum so others can benefit from the solution in the future -

yes, i am still too lazy for such a convenient function to deprecate it also in my head ;)
