I am trying to display a number using QDebug in the Hex format. Below is the code which I have written. It is working but the output has string contents enclosed in double quotes:
How to remove these quotes?
m_CanMsg_ptr->id = 0x720;
m_CanMsg_ptr->sizeData = 1;
m_CanMsg_ptr->data[0] = 0x05;
MessageID.setNum(m_CanMsg_ptr->id,16);
DataSize = QString("%1").arg(m_CanMsg_ptr->sizeData, 0, 16);
data = QString("%1").arg(m_CanMsg_ptr->data[0], 0, 16)
qDebug() << "Heart-Beat : Msg ID = " << MessageID << " Msg DLC = " << DataSize;
qDebug() << "Msg Data " << " = " << data;
I did as per these resources:

qDebug
is a debug interface. It's not meant for custom-formatted output, it's simply a way of quickly getting data in readable form. It's meant for a developer, and the quotes are there to remind you that you've output a string. qDebug()
presumes that the const char*
data is a message and shows it without quotes, other string types like QString
are "just data" and are shown with quotes.
If you want custom formatting, don't use qDebug()
, use QTextStream
:
#include <QTextStream>
#include <cstdio>
QTextStream out(stdout);
void f() {
out << "Heart-Beat : Msg ID = " << MessageID << " Msg DLC = " << DataSize << endl;
}
