Saving on Mac OS X
Message 1 in thread
Hi All,
I'm a newbie to Qt. I've a problem while saving on Mac OS X.
I'm using the getSaveFileName() static function of QFileDialog for
displaying the save dialog. When I enter an existing file name in the
Save As text field without the extension, the file is getting
overwritten without confirmation. But if I mention the extension, the
confirmation dialog is displayed. Is there anyway to solve this issue
so that if the user gives an existing name without extension, the
confirmation dialog should appear without over writing. Working fine
in Windows.
code snippet using getSaveFileName():
QString filename = QFileDialog::getSaveFileName(
this,
tr( "Save as..." ),
defaultPath + QString::fromLatin1( "/Untitled.xyz" ),
tr( "Files (*.xyz)" ) );
I've tried without using the static method but even in this case it's
of no use.
QString filename;
QFileDialog dialog(this);
dialog.setFileMode(QFileDialog::AnyFile);
dialog.setFilter( tr( "Files (*.xyz)" ));
dialog.setAcceptMode(QFileDialog::AcceptSave);
dialog.setConfirmOverwrite(true);
QStringList fileNames;
if (dialog.exec())
fileNames = dialog.selectedFiles();
if ( fileNames.count() )
{
filename = fileNames.at(0);
}
Please help me out in solving this issue.
Thanks
Sudheer

Hi All,
I found one solution by setting the default suffix and this time I'm
able to see the confirmation dialog. But how do I use this
defaultSuffix property with getSaveFileName() function as it will use
the native file dialog and not QFileDialog for Windows & Mac ?
Thanks
