Some more weirdness:
I just created a new settings instance with a new name and when I run
allKeys() on it, it lists a ton of lists from various plist files on my
system (see below)
Is this a bug of am I expecting the wrong thing? I guess I need to use
an explicit ini file location for now.

Hi all,
I just wrote a little snippet to store a simple string in a settings file:
|from PySide2 import QtCore settings = QtCore.QSettings("TestName",
"TestApp") settings.setValue('groupName/attrName', 'testValue') |
Then I launch my application that reads the above like this:
|settings = QtCore.QSettings("TestName", "TestApp") my_value =
settings.value('groupName/attrName', 'testValue') |
The app retrieves the value “testValue” but now I want to kill the
file and start from scratch.
Problem is, the file does not exist where the docs say it should.
I’m on OSX and checked:
~/Library/Preferences
as well as:
/Library/Preferences
According to settings.fileName() the plist file should be in:
|~/Library/Preferences/com.testname.TestApp.plist |
but that file does not exist.
Weird thing is when I close and open my app again it still manages to
retrieve the value “testValue”, but I have no clue where it gets it from.
What am I missing?
Cheers,
frank
