I don't know the reasoning/etc, my speculation would be that it is probably a legacy decision, given things like: http://live.gnome.org/GnomeGoals/GSettingsMigration > or indeed the main > settings database that should be used from within Qt through something > like [0] ?

No, at least, I very much doubt it. libgq seems to be unmaintained - or at least, nobody seems interested in taking my patches to it, despite repeated attempts to get somebody to have a look (see http://lists.maemo.org/pipermail/maemo-developers/2010-August/027366.html for details on that). I also don't think it is packaged for MeeGo. I suspect that MGConfItem (http://apidocs.meego.com/mtf/class_m_g_conf_item.html) is the thing to use, though personally I think this would be better placed at the Qt level either relating to QSettings (as mentioned in a reply to this mail) or something, so as for application developers to maintain maximum portability (to e.g. Symbian) > Thanks, > > -Sivan -- Robin Burchell http://rburchell.com _______________________________________________ MeeGo-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-dev
