[solved] QDesktopServices::storageLocation substituion in Qt 5

Violet Giraffe

Hello,

I'm trying to port my desktop application to Qt 5, stumbled upon

@QDesktopServices::storageLocation( QDesktopServices::DataLocation );@

Can't find a substitute in Qt 5, please advise.

You can use "QStandardPaths":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtcore/qstandardpaths.html (from the QtCore module) as a replacement for QDesktopServices.

Instead of using
@QString QDesktopServices::storageLocation ( StandardLocation type ) [static]@

in Qt4 use: @QStandardPaths::standardLocations(StandardLocation type) [static]@ in Qt5. Check documentation "here":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtcore/qstandardpaths.html#standardLocations.
