\class QSettings
\brief The QSettings class provides persistent platform-independent application settings.
\ingroup io
\ingroup misc
\mainclass
On Unix systems, QSettings uses text files to store settings. On Windows
systems, QSettings uses the system registry. On Mac OS X, QSettings uses
the Carbon preferences API.
Each setting comprises an identifying key and the data associated with
the key. A key is a unicode string which consists of \e two or more
subkeys. A subkey is a slash, '/', followed by one or more unicode
characters (excluding slashes, newlines, carriage returns and equals,
'=', signs). The associated data, called the entry or value, may be a
boolean, an integer, a double, a string or a list of strings. Entry
strings may contain any unicode characters.
If you want to save and restore the entire desktop's settings, i.e.
which applications are running, use QSettings to save the settings
for each individual application and QSessionManager to save the
desktop's session.
Example settings:
\code
/MyCompany/MyApplication/background color
/MyCompany/MyApplication/foreground color
/MyCompany/MyApplication/geometry/x
/MyCompany/MyApplication/geometry/y
/MyCompany/MyApplication/geometry/width
/MyCompany/MyApplication/geometry/height
/MyCompany/MyApplication/recent files/1
/MyCompany/MyApplication/recent files/2
/MyCompany/MyApplication/recent files/3
\endcode
Each line above is a complete key, made up of subkeys.
A typical usage pattern for reading settings at application
startup:
\code
QSettings settings;
settings.setPath( "MyCompany.com", "MyApplication" );
QString bgColor = settings.readEntry( "/colors/background", "white" );
int width = settings.readNumEntry( "/geometry/width", 640 );
// ...
\endcode
A typical usage pattern for saving settings at application exit or
'save preferences':
\code
QSettings settings;
settings.setPath( "MyCompany.com", "MyApplication" );
settings.writeEntry( "/colors/background", bgColor );
settings.writeEntry( "/geometry/width", width );
// ...
\endcode
A key prefix can be prepended to all keys using beginGroup(). The
application of the prefix is stopped using endGroup(). For
example:
\code
QSettings settings;
settings.beginGroup( "/MainWindow" );
settings.beginGroup( "/Geometry" );
int x = settings.readEntry( "/x" );
// ...
settings.endGroup();
settings.beginGroup( "/Toolbars" );
// ...
settings.endGroup();
settings.endGroup();
\endcode
You can get a list of entry-holding keys by calling entryList(), and
a list of key-holding keys using subkeyList().
\code
QStringList keys = settings.entryList( "/MyApplication" );
// keys contains 'background color' and 'foreground color'.
QStringList keys = settings.entryList( "/MyApplication/recent files" );
// keys contains '1', '2' and '3'.
QStringList subkeys = settings.subkeyList( "/MyApplication" );
// subkeys contains 'geometry' and 'recent files'
QStringList subkeys = settings.subkeyList( "/MyApplication/recent files" );
// subkeys is empty.
\endcode
Since settings for Windows are stored in the registry there are
some size limitations as follows:
\list
\i A subkey may not exceed 255 characters.
\i An entry's value may not exceed 16,300 characters.
\i All the values of a key (for example, all the 'recent files'
subkeys values), may not exceed 65,535 characters.
\endlist
These limitations are not enforced on Unix or Mac OS X.
\warning Creating multiple, simultaneous instances of QSettings writing
to a text file may lead to data loss! This is a known issue which will
be fixed in a future release of Qt.
\section1 Notes for Mac OS X Applications
The location where settings are stored is not formally defined by
the CFPreferences API.
At the time of writing settings are stored (either on a global or
user basis, preferring locally) into a plist file in \c
$ROOT/System/Library/Preferences (in XML format). QSettings will
create an appropriate plist file (\c{com.<first group name>.plist})
out of the full path to a key.
For further information on CFPreferences see
\link http://developer.apple.com/documentation/CoreFoundation/Conceptual/CFPreferences/index.html
Apple's Specifications\endlink
\section1 Notes for Unix Applications
There is no universally accepted place for storing application
settings under Unix. In the examples the settings file will be
searched for in the following directories:
\list 1
\i \c SYSCONF - the default value is \c INSTALL/etc/settings
\i \c /opt/MyCompany/share/etc
\i \c /opt/MyCompany/share/MyApplication/etc
\i \c $HOME/.qt
\endlist
When reading settings the files are searched in the order shown
above, with later settings overriding earlier settings. Files for
which the user doesn't have read permission are ignored. When saving
settings QSettings works in the order shown above, writing
to the first settings file for which the user has write permission.
(\c INSTALL is the directory where Qt was installed. This can be
modified by using the configure script's -prefix argument )
If you want to put the settings in a particular place in the
filesystem you could do this:
\code
settings.insertSearchPath( QSettings::Unix, "/opt/MyCompany/share" );
\endcode
But in practice you may prefer not to use a search path for Unix.
For example the following code:
\code
settings.writeEntry( "/MyApplication/geometry/width", width );
\endcode
will end up writing the "geometry/width" setting to the file
\c{$HOME/.qt/myapplicationrc} (assuming that the application is
being run by an ordinary user, i.e. not by root).
For cross-platform applications you should ensure that the
\link #sizelimit Windows size limitations \endlink are not exceeded.
\warning QSettings doesn't write the settings until it is destroyed so
you should construct the QSettings object on the stack.

/*!
Inserts \a path into the settings search path. The semantics of \a
path depends on the system \a s. It is usually easier and better to
use setPath() instead of this function.
When \a s is \e Windows and the execution environment is \e not
Windows the function does nothing. Similarly when \a s is \e Unix and
the execution environment is \e not Unix the function does nothing.
When \a s is \e Windows, and the execution environment is Windows, the
search path list will be used as the first subfolder of the "Software"
folder in the registry.
When reading settings the folders are searched forwards from the
first folder (listed below) to the last, returning the first
settings found, and ignoring any folders for which the user doesn't
have read permission.
\list 1
\i HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/MyCompany/MyApplication
\i HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/MyCompany/MyApplication
\i HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/MyApplication
\i HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/MyApplication
\endlist
\code
QSettings settings;
settings.insertSearchPath( QSettings::Windows, "/MyCompany" );
settings.writeEntry( "/MyApplication/Tip of the day", TRUE );
\endcode
The code above will write the subkey "Tip of the day" into the \e
first of the registry folders listed below that is found and for
which the user has write permission.
\list 1
\i HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/MyCompany/MyApplication
\i HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/MyCompany/MyApplication
\i HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/MyApplication
\i HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/MyApplication
\endlist
If a setting is found in the HKEY_CURRENT_USER space, this setting
is overwritten independently of write permissions in the
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE space.
When \a s is \e Unix, and the execution environment is Unix, the
search path list will be used when trying to determine a suitable
filename for reading and writing settings files. By default, there are
two entries in the search path:
\list 1
\i \c SYSCONF - where \c SYSCONF is a directory specified when
configuring Qt; by default it is INSTALL/etc/settings.
\i \c $HOME/.qt/ - where \c $HOME is the user's home directory.
\endlist
All insertions into the search path will go before $HOME/.qt/.
For example:
\code
QSettings settings;
settings.insertSearchPath( QSettings::Unix, "/opt/MyCompany/share/etc" );
settings.insertSearchPath( QSettings::Unix, "/opt/MyCompany/share/MyApplication/etc" );
// ...
\endcode
Will result in a search path of:
\list 1
\i SYSCONF
\i /opt/MyCompany/share/etc
\i /opt/MyCompany/share/MyApplication/etc
\i $HOME/.qt
\endlist
When reading settings the files are searched in the order shown
above, with later settings overriding earlier settings. Files for
which the user doesn't have read permission are ignored. When saving
settings QSettings works in the order shown above, writing
to the first settings file for which the user has write permission.
Note that paths in the file system are not created by this
function, so they must already exist to be useful.
Settings under Unix are stored in files whose names are based on the
first subkey of the key (not including the search path). The algorithm
for creating names is essentially: lowercase the first subkey, replace
spaces with underscores and add 'rc', e.g.
<tt>/MyCompany/MyApplication/background color</tt> will be stored in
<tt>myapplicationrc</tt> (assuming that <tt>/MyCompany</tt> is part of
the search path).

\overload QStringList QSettings::readListEntry(const QString &key, const QChar &separator, bool *ok ) const
\obsolete
Reads the entry specified by \a key as a string. The \a separator
is used to create a QStringList by calling QStringList::split(\a
separator, entry). If \a ok is not 0: \a *ok is set to TRUE
if the key was read, otherwise \a *ok is set to FALSE.
\warning As the documentation states, QStringList::split() will
omit empty strings from the list. Because of this, it is
impossible to retrieve identical list data with this function. We
recommend using the readListEntry() and writeEntry() overloads
that do not take a \a separator argument.
Note that if you want to iterate over the list, you should iterate
over a copy, e.g.
\code
QStringList list = mySettings.readListEntry( "size", " " );
QStringList::Iterator it = list.begin();
while( it != list.end() ) {
myProcessing( *it );
++it;
}
