QtSQL and databse

[prophet0]

how can i use a settings class to use DB for my entire application

db = QSqlDatabase::addDatabase("QMYSQL");
    db.setHostName("localhost");
    db.setDatabaseName("MYDATABASE");
    db.setUserName("root");
    db.setPassword("MYPASS");

db = QSqlDatabase::addDatabase("QMYSQL");
    db.setHostName("localhost");
    db.setDatabaseName("MYDATABASE");
    db.setUserName("root");
    db.setPassword("MYPASS");

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

i need to use if(db.open) across my application how would i be able to access it

could you please use examples thanks!!

Hi,

see the second parameter of QSqlDatabase::addDatabase() and use it in conjunction with QSqlDatabase::database() to access the database from everywhere in your application.

Only open the database at start and it will stay open (normally). Or make a global function which always checks if it is open if a local test is to much coding for you.
