Is there any proper way to save string without using file ?

[ozie]

Hi all,
I want to save line edit value when it changes, and i want load from last value again when application start. I can achieve that creating a file. Is there another way to do this properly ?

Thanks for any idea.

Use QSettings for this as @Christian-Ehrlicher mentions. Depending on platform that will save in either a physical file or the Registry under Windows. Either way you don't have to worry about it, QSettings takes care of it for you.

If you want to save it in a file, no.
Maybe QSettings - but even then it's saved in a file on the disk (how should something made persistent otherwise?)

Yes, you must ensure you distribute/deploy all the right things with windeployqt, and you must have something wrong. Start with whatever the error message says.
