Qimage::save returns false in release

[CCTeam]

Hi all, I'm new to the forum!

I have a problem with QImage::save(); it works ok in debug, but when I use it in release it returns always false.
I'm using Qt 4.6; Does anybody have idea of what can be the problem?

Thank you.

Did you run the application directly (by running the exe) or do you run it from the IDE?

First of all Excuse me for the delay on the response.

I run the the application directly.

Hmm... can you show your code?

I saw that the problem occurs only with JPG and TIFF format; with BMP and PNG works fine also in release;
however the code I used is:

typedef unsigned char LMV_UC;

bool ApplicationCommands::saveScreenshot(){
QSettings settings;
QString fileName;
QString str_extention, str_extention_complete;

//***get last path from settings
QString imageSavePath = settings.value("refPathImageSave", QString(QDir::homePath())).toString();

//***this is my custom dialog to choose the file name and type of the file to save
ScreenshotDialog* CSD = new CuboScreenshotDialog();
if ( CSD->exec() ){

//***this is a method to get the image like screenshot of a custom window;
//***it creates the image in this way:
//***LMV_UC* rawImage = (LMV_UC*)calloc( sizeof( LMV_UC ), 4*extendedWidth*extendedHeight);
//*** <--fills the rawImage by reading pixel from window-->
//***image = QImage ( rawImage, extendedWidth, extendedHeight, QImage::Format_RGB32 );
QImage image;
if ( !openglView->getScreenshot(image) ){
return false;
}


//***gets the file name to save...
fileName = CSD->getFileName();

//***...and the quality
short quality = CSD->getQuality();

//***image saving...
return( image.save(fileName, 0, quality) );

}
return false;
}

Then your code is fine, you only need to deploy the plugins for tiff and jpeg alongside your application!
