XML Serialization of Qt Objects

How do i serialize Qt objects in XML format? I tried using Boost library but it requires me to convert each of my data type to standard C++ datatype. In QDataStream i was able to serialize into binary format. Please let me know how to serialize a whole Qt Object into XML file.

You're going to have to write it yourself, but it should follow the QDataStream class. And if you do, you could use it interchangeably.

There is a problem you will need to tackle though XML is a structured, nested format. QDataStream is only bytes. Therefore when choosing your XML schema, you will be very limited. While not impossible, you'd probably be left with a rather rudimentary set of elements and attributes. You could always map to/from a higher level, but that would be more work.
