Define path inside Application forder writable
-
I need to define the path of the file I created inside the application folder into QFile. As an example, I created a text file and while giving the file path, I give it with the file path of my own computer. as file:///C:/Users/umutc/Desktop/test.txt.
My problem is that when I run the application on another computer, it will not find this file path. How can I identify a file inside application files? I defined it in the Resources folder, but it doesn't work for me because it is readonly. I have to write. -

QStandardPath. There you can make sure that you get the home directory or desktop of the user on any computer. -

In addition to what the others are correctly telling you about usingQStandardPaths, when an end user installs your app on their computer it may well be the case that they do not have permission to write anything into the executable folder and/or the folder where any app files were installed.
