Qfile and Qresource problem

[bask185]

I am working with a few dictionaries and as I am cross-compiling it would be usefull if I would use the resource folder instead.

I was already using the Resource folder for a .jpg file but it is not working when I want to open my textfile.

QPixmap logo(":/resources/img/logo.jpg"); // works

QFile file(":/resources/img/Dictionary2.csv.txt"); // does not work

user@user:~/Dropbox/GUI/GUI_Qt/img$ ls
Dictionary2.csv.txt  logo.jpg  toolbox1.png  toolbox2.png // the file is present in the folder

What am I not knowing? ...besides alot :P

• Did you add Dictionary2.csv.txt to the qrc file?
• Can you try QFile file(QFileInfo(":/resources/img/Dictionary2.csv.txt").absoluteFilePath());?

Nope, did so now, thank you.
