QSettings: set IniFormat globally ?
Message 1 in thread
Is there any way to set QSettings::IniFormat globally
rather than having to pass it to each QSettings ctor,
as can be done for the application name and so on,
via the QCoreApplication:: methods ?

Not now, but from Qt 4.4.0 on, this will be possible:

OK, thanks. I guess I'll have to derive from QSettings
and wrap it up in a new class.

Rather then derive from it....
What I do, is simply create a global function that returns a
std::auto_ptr< QSettings * >
Since I believe that the copy constructor is private for QSettings and
you cant return a QSetting itself...
std::auto_ptr< QSettings > getSettings( bool user = true ) const
{
QSettings::Scope scope = user ? QSettings::UserScope :
QSettings::SystemScope;
std::auto_ptr< QSettings> retVal( new QSettings(
getSettingsFormat(),
scope,
QCoreApplication::organizationName(),
QCoreApplication::applicationName(),
NULL ) );
return retVal;
}
I actually do it with a custom settings format... but you should be able
to figure this one out :)
