[not really] QFile open for append adding extra newline 8-(
-
This seems like it should be so easy 8-(
I have a text file, something like this:
@
line1
line2
line3
@There is no empty line at the end.
I open the file in append mode and create a QTextStream.
@
QFile file(filename);
file.open(QIODevice::WriteOnly | QIODevice::Append | QIODevice::Text);
QTextStream out(&file);
@If I write without inserting '\n' (or endl) the text goes right on the of the last line:
@
out << "line4";
@The file now looks like this:
@
line1
line2
line3line4
@However if I insert '\n' (or endl) there is always an empty line between the previous EOF and the line I append:
@
out << endl << "line4";
@The file now looks like this:
@
line1
line2
line3line4
@Is there some way to append without creating this extra empty line?
Thanks for any tips!!!

This was VIM's fault 8-(
It adds an EOL at the end that it doesn't show.
You can prevent this by using ":set binary"
Sorry, Operator error...
