> * [QTBUG-21739] The locking mechanism inside QSettings has changed > and is no longer compatible with the one of previous versions of > Qt. There might be corruption if two applications running different > versions of Qt are writing to the same config file at the same > time. You must also now have write permissions in the directory > containing the settings file in order to write settings. _______________________________________________ Interest mailing list Interest@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/interest
