[qt4.1,win,g++] QSettings does not write settings

[jh]

hi,

before an application is exited a method is called where the settings should
be written to the registry:


void
fdi_MainWindow::write_settings()
{

QSettings settings;

settings.setValue(fdinsight_settings + "/version", version );
settings.setValue(fdinsight_settings + "/window/posx", x() );
settings.setValue(fdinsight_settings + "/window/posy", y() );
settings.setValue(fdinsight_settings + "/window/width", width() );
settings.setValue(fdinsight_settings + "/window/height", height() );

}

i cannot find the settings in the registry, when the app tries to read
the settings they could not be read as well.

what's wrong?

regards,
jh

What does QSettings::status() return? What is the value of fdinsight_settings variable?

[jh]

fdinsight_settings is just a qstring.

status returns:

QSettings::AccessError

how can it be that an access error occurs while trying to
write the registry? did i forget anything?
(btw. the code worked with qt3)

jh

Add this behind the QApplication constructor of your main():


QApplication a(argc, argv);
a.setOrganizationName("My Company");
a.setOrganizationDomain("mycompany.com");
a.setApplicationName("My Application");
