Talk:User Configuration

Two questions:

• What kind of format does Qt use to store QSettings in the local filesystem? Is it going to be efficient when larger data (let's say 100K) is stored as value in key-value pair?

It uses an "INI-like" format, see the real-world sample I posted. Tshead 13:20, 15 Sep 2006 (EDT)

• How are system administrators going to deliver system-widge settings if we use QSettings?

They can either: hand edit (the files are a reasonably-easy-to-comprehend text file); setup the configuration in their own copy of ParaView and copy/paste; we provide a "settings editor" application; some combination of the above. Tshead 13:20, 15 Sep 2006 (EDT)
