Problem creating text file

SPlatten

I am having a problem creating a text file, I populated a QStringList with the rows I want to print, I have verified that each row ends only with \r\n using Qt Creator.

Here is the code that writes the list to the file:

    QFile fCSV(strFilename);
    if ( fCSV.open(QIODevice::ReadWrite | QIODevice::Text) == true )
    {
        QTextStream tsCSV(&fCSV);
        foreach( strRow, slstRows )
        {
            tsCSV << strRow;
        }
        fCSV.close();
    }

What I'm seeing when I open this file in an editor that shows end of line terminators is that each line ends with \r\r\n, where is this coming from?

I've looked at the code and I only ever append \r\n once to each string and as I said using Qt Creator the bytes ending on the QString end only in 13 (\r) followed by 10 (\n).

Yet when it's written to file this is changed to \r\r\n.

Qt does it. it appends the native platforms convention for line ending.
Since you are on windows i assume, you get the "\n" replaced with "\r\n"

Dont use QTextStream, but write the binary data directly:

    QFile fCSV(strFilename);
    if ( fCSV.open(QIODevice::WriteOnly)  )
    {
        for( const QString & strRow : qAsConst(slstRows) )
            fCSV.write( strRow.toUtf8() );
        fCSV.close();
    }
