How to read read QString and bool values from xml ?
This way i cannot convert .

struct Settg
{
    ushort DataBlock[32];
    bool Status[32];
}

Settg get_Settg;
if(xmlReader->name() == "DATABLOCK")
  {
    get_Settg.DataBlock = xmlReader->readElementText().toUShort();
     xmlReader->readNext();
    }
  else if(xmlReader->name() == "STATUS")
  {
 get_Settg.Status =(xmlReader->readElementText()).toUpper()=="true"?1:0;
 xmlReader->readNext();
 }

Where did i miss ? Did i miss somthing?

What is the exact output? What do you mean with "I cannot convert"?

get_Settg.Status =(xmlReader->readElementText()).toUpper()=="true"?1:0;

This line looks suspicious to me: you're converting the string to UPPERCASE and then comparing with a lowercase "true", then 1 and 0 are no proper boolean values. I would correct this line in

get_Settg.Status = ( xmlReader->readElementText()).toUpper() == "TRUE" )

As a general note, the type converting method of QString can give you the status of the conversion, this status should be checked to be sure you're not reading garbage information.

Thanks for the reply .
My XML Output looks like this

-<SETTINGS>
    -<R NUMBER="0">
         <ISENABLED>TRUE</ISENABLED>
        -<SA0>
              <DATABLOCK>Table 0</DATABLOCK>
              <STATUS>TRUE</STATUS>
         </SA0>
           .
           .
        -<SA31>
             <DATABLOCK>Table 0</DATABLOCK>
              <STATUS>TRUE</STATUS>
        </SA31>
     </R>
<?SETTINGS>

How to read Bool which is an array?

get_Settg.Status = ( xmlReader->readElementText()).toUpper() == "TRUE";

error: C2440: '=' : cannot convert from 'bool' to 'bool [32]'
There are no conversions to array types, although there are conversions to references or pointers to arrays

You defined the structure as

struct Settg
{
    ushort DataBlock[32];
    bool Status[32];
}

and then you're using it as

 get_Settg.DataBlock = //...
get_Settg.Status = // ...

You have to provide and index to the array, i.e.

get_Settg.Status[ theIndex ] = // ...

EDIT: you're facing a C++ issue, not a problem of reading an XML file.

@JohanSolo
Thank you . I used index to read an array.
