On Windows systems, QSettings uses the system registry. On Mac OS X, QSettings uses the Carbon preferences API. Each setting comprises an identifying key and the data associated with the key. A key is a unicode string which consists of \e two or more subkeys. A subkey is a slash, '/', followed by one or more unicode characters (excluding slashes, newlines, carriage returns and equals, '=', signs). The associated data, called the entry or value, may be a boolean, an integer, a double, a string or a list of strings. Entry strings may contain any unicode characters. If you want to save and restore the entire desktop's settings, i.e. which applications are running, use QSettings to save the settings for each individual application and QSessionManager to save the desktop's session. Example settings: \code /MyCompany/MyApplication/background color /MyCompany/MyApplication/foreground color /MyCompany/MyApplication/geometry/x /MyCompany/MyApplication/geometry/y /MyCompany/MyApplication/geometry/width /MyCompany/MyApplication/geometry/height /MyCompany/MyApplication/recent files/1 /MyCompany/MyApplication/recent files/2 /MyCompany/MyApplication/recent files/3 \endcode Each line above is a complete key, made up of subkeys. A typical usage pattern for reading application startup: \code QSettings settings; settings.setPath( "MyCompany.com", "MyApplication" ); QString bgColor = settings.readEntry( "/colors/background", "white" ); int width = settings.readNumEntry( "/geometry/width", 640 ); // ... \endcode A typical usage pattern for application exit or 'save preferences': \code QSettings settings; settings.setPath( "MyCompany.com", "MyApplication" ); settings.writeEntry( "/colors/background", bgColor ); settings.writeEntry( "/geometry/width", width ); // ... \endcode QSettings can build a key prefix that is prepended to all keys. To build the key prefix, use beginGroup() and endGroup(). \code QSettings settings; settings.beginGroup( "/MainWindow" ); settings.beginGroup( "/Geometry" ); int x = settings.readEntry( "/x" ); // ... settings.endGroup(); settings.beginGroup( "/Toolbars" ); // ... settings.endGroup(); settings.endGroup(); \endcode You can get a list of entry-holding keys by calling entryList(), and a list of key-holding keys using subkeyList(). \code QStringList keys = entryList( "/MyApplication" ); // keys contains 'background color' and 'foreground color'. QStringList keys = entryList( "/MyApplication/recent files" ); // keys contains '1', '2' and '3'. QStringList subkeys = subkeyList( "/MyApplication" ); // subkeys contains 'geometry' and 'recent files' QStringList subkeys = subkeyList( "/MyApplication/recent files" ); // subkeys is empty. \endcode Since settings for Windows are stored in the registry there are size limits as follows: \list \i A subkey may not exceed 255 characters. \i An entry's value may not exceed 16,300 characters. \i All the values of a key (for example, all the 'recent files' subkeys values), may not exceed 65,535 characters. \endlist These limitations are not enforced on Unix or Mac OS X. If you wish to use a different search path call insertSearchPath() as often as necessary to add your preferred paths. Call removeSearchPath() to remove any unwanted paths. \section1 Notes for Mac OS X Applications Internal to the CFPreferences API it is not defined (for Mac OS 9 support) where the settings will ultimitely be stored. However, at the time of this writing the settings will be stored (either on a global or user basis, preferring locally) into a plist file in $ROOT/System/Library/Preferences (in XML format). QSettings will create an appropriate plist file (com.<first group name>.plist) out of the full path to a key. For further information on CFPreferences see also \link http://developer.apple.com/techpubs/macosx/CoreFoundation/PreferenceServices/preferenceservices_carbon.html Apple's Specifications\endlink \section1 Notes for Unix Applications There is no universally accepted place for storing application settings under Unix. In the examples the settings file will be searched for in the following directories: \list 1 \i INSTALL/etc/settings \i /opt/MyCompany/share/etc \i /opt/MyCompany/share/MyApplication/etc \i $HOME/.qt \endlist When reading settings the files are searched in the order shown above, with later settings overriding earlier settings. Files for which the user doesn't have read permission are ignored. When saving settings QSettings works in the order shown above, writing to the first settings file for which the user has write permission. (\c INSTALL is the directory where Qt was installed. This can be modified by using the configure script's -prefix argument ) If you want to put the settings in a particular place in the filesystem you could do this: \code settings.insertSearchPath( QSettings::Unix, "/opt/MyCompany/share" ); \endcode But in practice you may prefer not to use a search path for Unix. For example the following code: \code settings.writeEntry( "/MyApplication/geometry/width", width ); \endcode will end up writing the "geometry/width" setting to the file \c{$HOME/.qt/myapplicationrc} (assuming that the application is being run by an ordinary user, i.e. not by root). For cross-platform applications you should ensure that the Windows size limitations are not exceeded. */ /*! \enum QSettings::System \value Mac Macintosh execution environments \value Unix Mac OS X, Unix, Linux and Unix-like execution environments \value Windows Windows execution environments */ /*! \enum QSettings::Format \value Native Store the settings in a platform dependent location \value Ini Store the settings in a text file */ /*! \enum QSettings::Scope \value Global Save settings as global as possible \value User Save settings in user space */ #if defined(Q_OS_UNIX) typedef int HANDLE; #define Q_LOCKREAD F_RDLCK #define Q_LOCKWRITE F_WRLCK /* Locks the file specified by name.

Similarly when \a s is \e Unix and the execution environment is \e not Unix the function does nothing. When \a s is \e Windows, and the execution environment is Windows, the search path list will be used as the first subfolder of the "Software" folder in the registry.

By default, there are two entries in the search path: \list 1 \i INSTALL/etc - where \c INSTALL is the directory where Qt was installed. \i $HOME/.qt/ - where \c $HOME is the user's home directory. \endlist All insertions into the search path will go before $HOME/.qt/. For example: \code QSettings settings; settings.insertSearchPath( QSettings::Unix, "/opt/MyCompany/share/etc" ); settings.insertSearchPath( QSettings::Unix, "/opt/MyCompany/share/MyApplication/etc" ); // ... \endcode Will result in a search path of: \list 1 \i INSTALL/etc \i /opt/MyCompany/share/etc \i /opt/MyCompany/share/MyApplication/etc \i $HOME/.qt \endlist When reading settings the files are searched in the order shown above, with later settings overriding earlier settings. Files for which the user doesn't have read permission are ignored. When saving settings QSettings works in the order shown above, writing to the first settings file for which the user has write permission. Settings under Unix are stored in files whose names are based on the first subkey of the key (not including the search path). The algorithm for creating names is essentially: lowercase the first subkey, replace spaces with underscores and add 'rc', e.g. <tt>/MyCompany/MyApplication/background color</tt> will be stored in <tt>myapplicationrc</tt> (assuming that <tt>/MyCompany</tt> is part of the search path). \sa removeSearchPath() */ void QSettings::insertSearchPath( System s, const QString &path) { #if !defined(QWS) && (defined(Q_WS_WIN) || defined(Q_OS_MAC)) if ( d->sysd ) { d->sysInsertSearchPath( s, path ); return; } #endif #if !defined(Q_WS_WIN) if ( s == Windows ) return; #endif #if !defined(Q_WS_WIN) if ( s == Mac ) return; #endif if ( !qt_verify_key( path ) ) { #if defined(QT_CHECK_STATE) qWarning( "QSettings::insertSearchPath: Invalid key: '%s'", path.isNull() ?
