Read INI file from QSetting

[puneet]

Hi..
I want to read from INI file with the help of QSettings and format is like
12,34. ASD = 12,34. ASD
mean in some values there is some integer and special characters in the key and value.
In INI file if there is no integer or special characters then i am able to read,in that case there is no issue.
But how to read the key and value with the help of QSettings.if there is some integer or characters are there.

The INI file has to be properly formatted. The output of the following program:

#include <QSettings>
 
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
  QSettings settings("test.ini", QSettings::IniFormat);
  settings.setValue("12,34. ASD", "12,34. ASD");
  return 0;
}

#include <QSettings>

int main(int argc, char **argv) {
  QSettings settings("test.ini", QSettings::IniFormat);
  settings.setValue("12,34. ASD", "12,34. ASD");
  return 0;
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

states that the entry should be formatted as follows:


[General]
12%2C34.%20ASD="12,34. ASD"

Thanks for reply,
But i am not writing the INI file.
getting the INI file from somewhere else and that is manually created i think.
I am just reading the INI file.
Scenario is like.. i am passing a value as string and now i find that value in INI file and returning the value.

QString abc::readINI(QString oper)
{
    QSettings settings("test.ini", QSettings::IniFormat);
    settings.beginGroup("aaa");
    QString var = settings.value(oper).toString();
    settings.endGroup();
    return var;
 
}

QString abc::readINI(QString oper)
{
    QSettings settings("test.ini", QSettings::IniFormat);
    settings.beginGroup("aaa");
    QString var = settings.value(oper).toString();
    settings.endGroup();
    return var;

}

The format you gave is invalid and Qt's parser will not be able to read it. You will either have to write your own parser or use an external library that is able to understand your data format.
