pde file from qt creator

[melis]

I have qt creator codes and the program works successfully. This codes should produce output which has ".pde" extention. But I couldn't find this ".pde" file on my pc or maybe the program doesn't produce it. If someone helps about that I will be grateful.

Hi,

Where is it supposed to create that file ?
Since the path should be known, does it print something on open failure ?

@SGaist said in pde file from qt creator:

here is it supposed to create that fi

Unfortunately I don't know where is it create that file, I just know I need ".pde" file which is produced from my qt program.
No it doesn't print any failure. When I run the program it works correctly.

I'd search for QFile in the source code, then search when a file is opened for writing and then add add an debug output. E.g.:

QFile f("some.pde");
f.open(QIODevice::WriteOnly);

qDebug() << f.fileName(); // add this!

Then you should know where the file is written.

When I did your suggestion, I toke this kind of error.

@melis You will probably have to add #include <QDebug> ;)

You don't do any check that the operations you are doing are successful. You should add that.
