QString replace multiple characters in a single call?

[SPlatten]

I want to replace multiple characters in a QString, I can do this:

strContent.replace("\n", " ");
strContent.replace("\r", " ");
strContent.replace("\t", " ");

What I would like to do is something like this:

QStringList slstBytes;
slstBytes << "\n" << "\r" << "\t";
strContent.replace(slstBytes, " ");

I know this isn't possible with the current build, that's just an example.

@SPlatten

strContent.replace(QRegularExpression("[\\n|\\r|\\t]+"), " ");

If it's just those non-printable chars like \n, \r and \t that you want replaced with space, you can use simplified():

strContent = strContent.simplified();

strContent.replace(QRegularExpression("[\\n|\\r|\\t]+"), " ");

@raven-worx said in QString replace multiple characters in a single call?:

strContent.replace(QRegularExpression("[\n|\r|\t]+"), " ");

Thank you, thats exactly what I was looking for.
