    Hello,
    I have written a code to write data into a text file and read/load data from the same text file successfully with a click on a button.
    Now the requirement is to populate the data in the text file on my widget. Its a calendar widget taken from one of the Qt examples. I looked into something called tablewidget, but I dont think I can apply that concept here since this might not be a table widget. I am deploying my widget on my acer tab.
    Can somebody help me with this ? as I am new to coding.
    This is how my .cpp file looks . It has two functions one for writing and another for loading data.
    generating :
    void Window::generatedata ()

    {

    // QString var1,var2,var3,var4,var5,var6;
    bool x10;
    bool y11;
    bool z,w;
    int year,year1,year2;
    int month,month1,month2;
    int comb1,comb2,comb3,comb4,comb5;
    QString textinput;

    x10 = gridCheckBox->isChecked();
    y11 = navigationCheckBox->isChecked();
    z = firstFridayCheckBox->isChecked();
    w = mayFirstCheckBox->isChecked();
    
    year = currentDateEdit->date().year();
    month = currentDateEdit->date().month();
    
    // QString var1= QString::number(year);
    // QString var2= QString::number(month);
    
    // QDate::toString with format==dd/MM/yyyy
    
    
     year1 = minimumDateEdit->date().year();
     month1 = minimumDateEdit->date().month();
    
    
    // QString var3= QString::number(year1);
    // QString var4= QString::number(month1);
    
    
     year2 = maximumDateEdit->date().year();
     month2 = maximumDateEdit->date().month();
    
    
    // QString var5= QString::number(year2);
     //QString var6= QString::number(month2);
    
      comb1 = localeCombo->currentIndex();
      comb2 = firstDayCombo->currentIndex();
      comb3 = selectionModeCombo->currentIndex();
      comb4 = firstDayCombo->currentIndex();
      comb5 = horizontalHeaderCombo->currentIndex();
    
      textinput = text->text();
    
    
    
    button->setText("clicked");
    QString outputFilename = "/storage/sdcard0/Download/out.txt";
    QFile outputFile(outputFilename);
    outputFile.open(QIODevice::WriteOnly);
    
     QTextStream outStream(&outputFile);
     if(!outputFile.isOpen()){
     // qDebug() << argv[0] << "- Error, unable to open" << outputFilename << "for output";
    return ;
     }
    
    outStream << "year=";
    outStream &lt;&lt; year;
    outStream &lt;&lt; "\n";
    
    
    
    outStream << "month= ";
    outStream << month;
    outStream << "\n";
    
    outStream << "year1= ";
    outStream << year1;
    outStream << "\n";
    
    outStream << "month1 = ";
    outStream << month1;
    outStream << "\n";
    
    outStream << "year2= ";
    outStream << year2;
    outStream << "\n";
    
    outStream << "month2 = ";
    outStream << month2;
    outStream << "\n";
    
    outStream << "x10 = ";
    outStream << x10;
    outStream << "\n";
    
    outStream << "y11 = ";
    outStream << y11;
    outStream <<"\n";
    
    outStream << "z = ";
     outStream << z;
     outStream << "\n";
    
     outStream << "w =";
     outStream << w;
     outStream << "\n";
    
     outStream << "comb1 =";
     outStream << comb1;
     outStream << "\n";
    
     outStream << "comb2 =";
     outStream << comb2;
     outStream << "\n";
    
     outStream << "comb3 =";
     outStream << comb3;
     outStream << "\n";
    
     outStream << "comb4 =";
     outStream << comb4;
     outStream << "\n";
    
     outStream << "comb5 =";
     outStream << comb5;
     outStream << "\n";
    
     outStream << "textinput =";
     outStream << textinput;
     outStream << "\n";
    
     outputFile.close();
    

    }

    void Window::loaddata ()

    {

    QString texte;
    
     button1->setText("loaded");
    
     zoneTexte.setGeometry(200,200,600,400);
       zoneTexte.setReadOnly(true);
    

    QFile file("/storage/sdcard0/Download/out.txt");
    if(file.open(QIODevice::ReadOnly | QIODevice::Text))
    {
    texte = file.readAll();
    file.close();
    }

    else texte = "cannot open file";

    zoneTexte.setText(texte);
    zoneTexte.show();
    file.close();

    }

    can somebody pls help me out ?

    Thanks in advance,
    Mansi

      Hi,

      Please enclose your code with coding tags (one @ a the beginning and one at the end) otherwise is very difficult to read it

        Hi,

        I solved it by myself :) thanks a lot for your reply :)

        Had another issue.
        Can gif images work on Qt GUI application ?
        I am actually trying to make animated image work but it isn't working, but it works when I use Qt quick application.
        Is it even possible to make it work in Qt GUI ??

        thanks a lot in advance,
        Mansi

          Do you mean an animated gif ? IIRC you can use QMovie for that

                no problem with the code. It builds fine but when i run it .. animation doesnt work on my tab.
                I used this extra line in my main program Q_IMPORT_PLUGIN(qgif)
                and some changes in .pro file. This is how my .pro file looks

                when I build it.. I am getting these two errors " /home/manasi/workspace/guianimation/guianimation/main.cpp:18: error: undefined reference to 'qt_static_plugin_lqgif()' " and " :-1: error: collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status " .
                I assume there is a plugin "qgif" which is not found. I tried installing it but couldnt find it. The library file libqgif.so is there in the Qt directory.
                Not sure how to debug it.. can you please help me ? :)

                  QTPLUGIN is used when you want to link against a static plugin which AFAIK is not what you are doing

                    you don't need to specify them in your PRO file using the QTPLUGIN variable.
                    Qt automatically reads them from the plugins directory.

                    E.g. <QT>/plugins/imageformats/qgif.dll
                    (exact path is depending on your Qt version)

                    Also you need to deploy the plugins with your application (in the correct sub-folder!

                      Hello,

                      I am actually confused here... I assume there is a difference between plugin and a library... there is something called as libqgif.so which is a library and a plugin qgif. I think the .so file has the plugin qgif.
                      And yes the library is there in the same path as you mentioned.

                      My Qt is built dynamically and im trying to use a static plugin.. is that an issue ? Not able to figure out when you say deploy plugin with application.. what do you exactly mean by that ?? can you please elaborate....

                      Thanks a lot in advance,
                      Mansi

                        yes it is! if you want to use Qt in a static manner you must have also built Qt itself statically.
                        Once you've built Qt statically read this about "static plugins":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/plugins-howto.html#static-plugins.

                        This is only relevant when you deploy your application with dynamic linked libraries of course. For "deploying to windows":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtdoc/deployment-windows.html for example.
