Delimiting character in QString.readLine()

[A Former User]

@istream& getline (char* s, streamsize n, char delim );@

How can I use a delimiting character as argument when dealing with QStrings?
readLine() only takes maximum allowed line length as argument so I have to walk around?

Sorry for my poor English, I do not understand what you want to express. what is QString.readLine() ?

I think that QString does not have a readLine() method.

The QTextStream class does have a readLine() method which returns a QString.

It will read one line from the stream. The end of the line can be any of these:

• The maximum number of characters has been read
• A line break has been encountered
• The end of the stream (file) has been reached

If you want to split a QString with user-defined delimiters, use QString::split() instead ;)

Yes, split() is indeed the function I am looking for, thanks!
