Solved Localized text for QFileDevice::FileError constants

[Robert Hairgrove]

Are these compatible with the C runtime errno constants and the strerror() function? That is, can I pass the numeric error code returned by QFileDevice::error() to the strerror() function to generate a meaningful message I can display in a message box?

Or is there a different way to do it in Qt?

Replying to my own question:

QIODevice::errorString() should solve the problem.

QFileDevice::FileError is an enum. You can check out the values here.
I dont think that these values (0-14) can be translated to C.

If you need to display the actual error as text, you could check the error code and map it to a matching message box.

Or call QIODevice::errorString() if localisation is not needed :-)
