Question

I need to split a qstring into two strings but knowing only the index of the splitter charachter. Here’s an exaple

input:
PineApple
3 

Output:
Pine  // 'e'  has index 3, so it is the splitter char and it belongs to the first part
Apple

Answer 1

If I understand your question correctly, you could use the left and mid methods to extract the portions of the string before and after an offset:

quint32 offset = 4;
QString test("PineApple");
QString before = test.left(offset); // Pine
QString after = test.mid(offset); // Apple

If you’re looking to end up with a QStringList (as you would have if you’d used split), you can obtain one like so:

QStringList list;
list << before 
     << after;
