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