30 wxFileConfig derives from base Config and implements file based config class,
31 i.e. it uses ASCII disk files to store the information. These files are
32 alternatively called INI, .conf or .rc in the documentation. They are
33 organized in groups or sections, which can nest (i.e. a group contains
34 subgroups, which contain their own subgroups &c). Each group has some
35 number of entries, which are "key = value" pairs. More precisely, the format
36 is:
37
38 # comments are allowed after either ';' or '#' (Win/UNIX standard)
39
40 # blank lines (as above) are ignored
41
42 # global entries are members of special (no name) top group
43 written_for = Windows
44 platform = Linux
45
46 # the start of the group 'Foo'
47 [Foo] # may put comments like this also
48 # following 3 lines are entries
49 key = value
50 another_key = " strings with spaces in the beginning should be quoted, \
51 otherwise the spaces are lost"
52 last_key = but you don't have to put " normally (nor quote them, like here)
53
54 # subgroup of the group 'Foo'
55 # (order is not important, only the name is: separator is '/', as in paths)
56 [Foo/Bar]
57 # entries prefixed with "!" are immutable, i.e. can't be changed if they are
58 # set in the system-wide config file
59 !special_key = value
60 bar_entry = whatever
61
62 [Foo/Bar/Fubar] # depth is (theoretically :-) unlimited
63 # may have the same name as key in another section
64 bar_entry = whatever not
65
66 You have {read/write/delete}Entry functions (guess what they do) and also
67 setCurrentPath to select current group. enum{Subgroups/Entries} allow you
68 to get all entries in the config file (in the current group). Finally,
69 flush() writes immediately all changed entries to disk (otherwise it would
70 be done automatically in dtor)
71
72 wxFileConfig manages not less than 2 config files for each program: global
73 and local (or system and user if you prefer). Entries are read from both of
74 them and the local entries override the global ones unless the latter is
75 immutable (prefixed with '!') in which case a warning message is generated
76 and local value is ignored. Of course, the changes are always written to local
77 file only.
78
79 The names of these files can be specified in a number of ways. First of all,
80 you can use the standard convention: using the ctor which takes 'strAppName'
81 parameter will probably be sufficient for 90% of cases. If, for whatever
82 reason you wish to use the files with some other names, you can always use the
83 second ctor.
84
85 wxFileConfig also may automatically expand the values of environment variables
86 in the entries it reads: for example, if you have an entry
87 score_file = $HOME/.score
88 a call to Read(&str, "score_file") will return a complete path to .score file
89 unless the expansion was previously disabled with SetExpandEnvVars(false) call
90 (it's on by default, the current status can be retrieved with
91 IsExpandingEnvVars function).
