[Interest] Current QDataStream format documentation?

[Jason H]

Alas, still out of date: "The QDataStream allows you to serialize some of the Qt data types. The table below lists the data types that QDataStream can serialize and how they are represented. The format described below is version 12."

The version in 5.6/5.7 is 17.

Anyone have more recent documentation?

The format described below is version 12. It is always best to cast integers to a Qt integer type, such as qint16 or quint32, when reading and writing.
