Symptom

Cause
none
Solution
To read a text file and parse it into a text string you can use the following code:
QFile file("in.txt");
if (!file.open(QIODevice::ReadOnly | QIODevice::Text))
return;
QTextStream in(&file);
while (!in.atEnd()) {
QString line = in.readLine();
process_line(line);
}
If you need to split the String (QString) into parts with a delimiter you can use the following code snippet:
QString str = "a,,b,c";
QStringList list1 = str.split(",");
