<![CDATA[CuteLogger iostream confusion [Solved]]]>Hi, is anyone using CuteLogger?

I've got a problem/confusion with it and I can't find anywhere else to ask a question.

If I use a embedded text line:

LOG_INFO("Starting the application");

everything is output in the way that I would expect. If I us an iostream with just a quoted string the output is as I would expect:

LOG_INFO() << "Starting the application";

But if I use a QString to output the text:

LOG_INFO() << QString("Power On");

I get the quotes included in the output:

"Power On"

instead of:
Power On

Does anyone have any experience with this or any insight into what is going on? I've tried these combinations with a QTextStream(stdout) iostream and I don't get the quotes so it appears to be something involving the CuteLogger, but I'm not enough of a C++ guru to know what might be happening.

@qDebug() << qPrintable(QString("Test"));@

Thanks for the update.

It's the normal behavior of QString when streamed to through qDebug, it outputs its content quoted.

IIRC, there was something about a newly added option for that during the Categorized Logging presentation but I can't remember exactly how. Need to wait for the presentation to be published :)
