    See QDateTime and use it where you define the file name.

    QFile file("/home/venugopal/"+s+""+dateTimeString+".xml");
    This doesn't work for me. My PC does not have a directory named "/home/venugopal/".

    Then replace "/home/venugopal/" with a directory of your choice (a directory that exists on your PC of course).

    Oh.... I get it..... I created that folder so I could make this work..... So it is OK to delete that? What do I do with all those XML files?

    Is it something related to hacking into 127.0.0.1?
