[Qt-interest] QBitArray and QSettings

[Bob Hood]

I'm not seeing a direct (obvious) way to store a QBitArray into a
QSettings object in the same way I can with other types, so I wrote a
pair of methods to convert to/from QString:

    QString MainWindow::bit_array_to_string(const QBitArray& array)
    {
        QString str;
        for(int i = 0;i < array.size();i++)
            str += (array[i] ? "1" : "0");

        return str;
    }

    QBitArray MainWindow::string_to_bit_array(const QString& string)
    {
        QBitArray array;
        array.resize(string.size());

        for(int i = 0;i < string.size();i++)
            array[i] = (string[i] == '1');

        return array;
    }

Must a QBitArray be converted to some other type before it can be stored
and retrieved via a QSettings object, or did I just miss a
less-than-obvious interface?
