    Default Performance Issue - Reading XML Values with 50-70 entry.

    Hi,

    I want to read the values from the reg.xml file. I tried in several methods using FirstChild.NodeValue()/NextSibling.Nodevalue/NextSiblingbyelements etc.,
    The working code is down below. But the code seems to be lengthy and suspect some thing shortcut must be there to extract the values.
    Not like converting to QNodeList,assisgn to domNode and again Qstring.

    Is this code is right, Since If 50-70 xml enteries there, Then there will be performance issue. Kindly suggest.

    reg.xml
    -----------=
    Qt Code:
    1. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

    Except for the fact that you are overwriting the strings each time you go through the loop, there is nothing wrong with this code. With the mostly flat structure of this XML, there isn't really any other way to convert it if you use QDomDocument methods. With 50 - 70 entries, I do not think you need to worry about performance. This is a tiny XML file.

    Please use [CODE] tags when posting source code. My signature (below) explains how.

    Please use CODE tags when posting source code so it is more readable. Click "Go Advanced" and then the "#" icon to insert the tags. Paste your code between them.

    And if you want to worry about performance, use a performant approach to parsing XML, such as QXmlStreamReader.
