reading from registry

[phillip_Qt]

Hi All,
actually my problem is that ive stored some string values in registry by using setValue.
QSettings settings("MY DATA","setvalue");
settings.setValue("my value","my value 10");
settings.setValue("your value","your value 20");

i need 2 retrive my value 10 and your value 10 and to collect it in QString. can any body help me?
Thank You All.

Where is the problem?
Just use QSettings again to read the keys you stored...

But my doubt is how to do that?

QSettings.readValue

QSettings.readValue

But in QSetting there is no member function like readValue();
Can u plz give me a sample of code.?

QVariant value ( const QString & key, const QVariant & defaultValue = QVariant() ) const

Why don't you take a look at QSettings docs and see if there is a method that has a name which suggests it fetches a value from the dataset... I assure you it's obvious.

@DeepDiver: Oh come on... this way he won't learn anything.

Okay - here is my adjusted post:

i Tried like this
QSettings settings;
bool ok = settings.contains(keyname);
QString str = settings.value(keyname, subkeyname).toString();
and i ve defined keyname, subkeyname as a macro in a .h file.
but now its giving compilation error "'class QSettings' has no member named 'readEntry"

[high_flyer]

could you show us where in your code you use 'readEntry'?

QString str = settings.value(keyname, subkeyname).toString();

Excuse me, but what's "subkey"? If you take a look at the docs (<-- this is a link, make sure to follow it), you'll see that the second parameter is default value, not any subkey.

Ok. thanks for correcting my fault.
