How to set the scope of QSettings to be application based.

[wladek]

Hi all,

I am using QSettings and have seen that one could set the applicationName and the organizationName for a QApplication, so that QSettings can be used as:

QSettings settings;

QSettings settings;

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

and the setting will reside into the already set applicationName and organizationName.

My question here: is there a possibility to achieve something similar also with the Scope of the QSettings.
If i would just do QSettings settings; the Scope would be QSettings:UserScope and I need QSettings:SystemScope.

One solution would be to use this constructor:

QSettings settings(QSettings::SystemScope, QApplication::organizationName());

QSettings settings(QSettings::SystemScope, QApplication::organizationName());

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

, but this involves more coding.

Is there any other better way to achieve this?

Thanks in advance,
Wladek
