doc.documentElement() does not return root element?

Question

I am currently working on a XML parser and I am using Qt to make it. Actually I have coded lots of things and functions but now I got a weird problem. When I make;

QDomElement root = doc.documentElement();

It never return root element. I debugged it and I can see doc has a value but never returns root element. What can be the problem ?

Thank you all

If you have created an empty QDomDocument it has no root element. You need to create one:

QDomElement root = doc.createElement("myroot");
doc.appendChild(root);
