\class QFile
\inmodule QtCore
\brief The QFile class provides an interface for reading from and writing to files.
\ingroup io
\reentrant
QFile is an I/O device for reading and writing text and binary
files and \l{The Qt Resource System}{resources}. A QFile may be
used by itself or, more conveniently, with a QTextStream or
QDataStream.
The file name is usually passed in the constructor, but it can be
set at any time using setFileName(). QFile expects the file
separator to be '/' regardless of operating system. The use of
other separators (e.g., '\\') is not supported.
You can check for a file's existence using exists(), and remove a
file using remove(). (More advanced file system related operations
are provided by QFileInfo and QDir.)
The file is opened with open(), closed with close(), and flushed
with flush(). Data is usually read and written using QDataStream
or QTextStream, but you can also call the QIODevice-inherited
functions read(), readLine(), readAll(), write(). QFile also
inherits getChar(), putChar(), and ungetChar(), which work one
character at a time.
The size of the file is returned by size(). You can get the
current file position using pos(), or move to a new file position
using seek(). If you've reached the end of the file, atEnd()
returns \c true.
\section1 Reading Files Directly
The following example reads a text file line by line:
\snippet file/file.cpp 0
The QIODevice::Text flag passed to open() tells Qt to convert
Windows-style line terminators ("\\r\\n") into C++-style
terminators ("\\n"). By default, QFile assumes binary, i.e. it
doesn't perform any conversion on the bytes stored in the file.
\section1 Using Streams to Read Files
The next example uses QTextStream to read a text file
line by line:
\snippet file/file.cpp 1
QTextStream takes care of converting the 8-bit data stored on
disk into a 16-bit Unicode QString. By default, it assumes that
the user system's local 8-bit encoding is used (e.g., UTF-8
on most unix based operating systems; see QTextCodec::codecForLocale() for
details). This can be changed using \l QTextStream::setCodec().
To write text, we can use operator<<(), which is overloaded to
take a QTextStream on the left and various data types (including
QString) on the right:
\snippet file/file.cpp 2
QDataStream is similar, in that you can use operator<<() to write
data and operator>>() to read it back. See the class
documentation for details.
When you use QFile, QFileInfo, and QDir to access the file system
with Qt, you can use Unicode file names. On Unix, these file
names are converted to an 8-bit encoding. If you want to use
standard C++ APIs (\c <cstdio> or \c <iostream>) or
platform-specific APIs to access files instead of QFile, you can
use the encodeName() and decodeName() functions to convert
between Unicode file names and 8-bit file names.
On Unix, there are some special system files (e.g. in \c /proc) for which
size() will always return 0, yet you may still be able to read more data
from such a file; the data is generated in direct response to you calling
read(). In this case, however, you cannot use atEnd() to determine if
there is more data to read (since atEnd() will return true for a file that
claims to have size 0). Instead, you should either call readAll(), or call
read() or readLine() repeatedly until no more data can be read. The next
example uses QTextStream to read \c /proc/modules line by line:
\snippet file/file.cpp 3
\section1 Signals
Unlike other QIODevice implementations, such as QTcpSocket, QFile does not
emit the aboutToClose(), bytesWritten(), or readyRead() signals. This
implementation detail means that QFile is not suitable for reading and
writing certain types of files, such as device files on Unix platforms.
\section1 Platform Specific Issues
File permissions are handled differently on Linux/Mac OS X and
Windows. In a non \l{QIODevice::isWritable()}{writable}
directory on Linux, files cannot be created. This is not always
the case on Windows, where, for instance, the 'My Documents'
directory usually is not writable, but it is still possible to
create files in it.
Qt's understanding of file permissions is limited, which affects especially
the \l QFile::setPermissions() function. On Windows, Qt will set only the
legacy read-only flag, and that only when none of the Write* flags are
passed. Qt does not manipulate access control lists (ACLs), which makes this
function mostly useless for NTFS volumes. It may still be of use for USB
sticks that use VFAT file systems. POSIX ACLs are not manipulated, either.
