    Hi,

    is unget possible with QTextStream?
    How does one go about peek'ing or unget'ing stuff?

    Use-case: read either a string of a number from a steam.
    How: read a character (is >> ws >> ch) and if it is a number (i.e. isdigit(ch) == true), unget it and read into an int (is >> number)

    Possible?
    Thanks.

      Something like this might work (didn't try it)

      @
      qint64 text_pos;
      text_pos = text_stream.pos();

      // read char

      if(want_to_undo)
      {
      text_stream.seek(text_pos);
      // read number instead
      }

      @
