My application already uses QSettings for storing app wide settings. The data I plan to store in the file is sensitive and I'd like to store it in a specific location only (like an encrypted partition). Another way is to store the data after encrypting it but I'm not doing that right now as I don't have a good management facility on my (embedded) platform. -mandeep > André > > -- > You like Qt? > I am looking for collegues to join me at i-Optics! > > _______________________________________________ > Interest mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/interest >
