Detailed Description

template<class SI_CHAR, class SI_STRLESS, class SI_CONVERTER>
class CSimpleIniTempl< SI_CHAR, SI_STRLESS, SI_CONVERTER >

Simple INI file reader.

This can be instantiated with the choice of unicode or native characterset, and case sensitive or insensitive comparisons of section and key names. The supported combinations are pre-defined with the following typedefs:

Interface	Case-sensitive	Typedef
char	No	CSimpleIniA
char	Yes	CSimpleIniCaseA
wchar_t	No	CSimpleIniW
wchar_t	Yes	CSimpleIniCaseW

Note that using other types for the SI_CHAR is supported. For instance, unsigned char, unsigned short, etc. Note that where the alternative type is a different size to char/wchar_t you may need to supply new helper classes for SI_STRLESS and SI_CONVERTER.

Note when multiple keys is enabled, this will delete all keys with that name; to selectively delete individual key/values, use DeleteValue.

Parameters

a_pSection	Section to delete key from, or if a_pKey is NULL, the section to remove.
a_pKey	Key to remove from the section. Set to NULL to remove the entire section.
a_bRemoveEmpty	If the section is empty after this key has been deleted, should the empty section be removed?

		bool	a_bRemoveEmpty = `false`
	)

Delete an entire section, or a key from a section. If value is provided, only remove keys with the value. Note that the data returned by GetSection is invalid and must not be used after anything has been deleted from that section using this method. Note when multiple keys is enabled, all keys with the value will be deleted.

Parameters

template<class SI_CHAR , class SI_STRLESS , class SI_CONVERTER >

void CSimpleIniTempl< SI_CHAR, SI_STRLESS, SI_CONVERTER >::SetAllowKeyOnly ( bool a_bAllowKeyOnly = true )

inline

When reading/writing an ini file, do we require every key to have an equals sign to delineate a valid key value. If false, then every valid key must have an equals sign and any lines without an equals sign is ignored. If true then keys do not require an equals sign to be considered a key. Note that this means that any non-commented line of text would become a key.

Parameters

a_bAllowKeyOnly Permit keys without an equals sign or value.

inline

Should multiple identical keys be permitted in the file. If set to false then the last value encountered will be used as the value of the key. If set to true, then all values will be available to be queried. For example, with the following input:

[section]
test=value1
test=value2

Then with SetMultiKey(true), both of the values "value1" and "value2" will be returned for the key test. If SetMultiKey(false) is used, then the value for "test" will only be "value2". This value may be changed at any time.

◆ SetMultiLine()

template<class SI_CHAR , class SI_STRLESS , class SI_CONVERTER >

void CSimpleIniTempl< SI_CHAR, SI_STRLESS, SI_CONVERTER >::SetMultiLine ( bool a_bAllowMultiLine = true )

inline

Should data values be permitted to span multiple lines in the file. If set to false then the multi-line construct <<<TAG as a value will be returned as is instead of loading the data. This value may be changed at any time.

Parameters

a_bAllowMultiLine Allow multi-line values in the source?

◆ SetQuotes()

template<class SI_CHAR , class SI_STRLESS , class SI_CONVERTER >

void CSimpleIniTempl< SI_CHAR, SI_STRLESS, SI_CONVERTER >::SetQuotes ( bool a_bParseQuotes = true )

inline

Should we recognise and parse quotes in single line values?

Parameters

a_bParseQuotes Parse quoted data in values?

◆ SetSpaces()

template<class SI_CHAR , class SI_STRLESS , class SI_CONVERTER >

void CSimpleIniTempl< SI_CHAR, SI_STRLESS, SI_CONVERTER >::SetSpaces ( bool a_bSpaces = true )

inline

Should spaces be added around the equals sign when writing key/value pairs out. When true, the result will be "key = value". When false, the result will be "key=value". This value may be changed at any time.

Parameters

a_bSpaces Add spaces around the equals sign?

◆ SetUnicode()

template<class SI_CHAR , class SI_STRLESS , class SI_CONVERTER >

void CSimpleIniTempl< SI_CHAR, SI_STRLESS, SI_CONVERTER >::SetUnicode ( bool a_bIsUtf8 = true )

inline

Set the storage format of the INI data. This affects both the loading and saving of the INI data using all of the Load/Save API functions. This value cannot be changed after any INI data has been loaded.

If the file is not set to Unicode (UTF-8), then the data encoding is assumed to be the OS native encoding. This encoding is the system locale on Linux/Unix and the legacy MBCS encoding on Windows NT/2K/XP. If the storage format is set to Unicode then the file will be loaded as UTF-8 encoded data regardless of the native file encoding. If SI_CHAR == char then all of the char* parameters take and return UTF-8 encoded data regardless of the system locale.

Parameters

a_bIsUtf8 Assume UTF-8 encoding for the source?

◆ SetValue()

template<class SI_CHAR , class SI_STRLESS , class SI_CONVERTER >

SI_Error CSimpleIniTempl< SI_CHAR, SI_STRLESS, SI_CONVERTER >::SetValue	(	const SI_CHAR *	a_pSection,
		const SI_CHAR *	a_pKey,
		const SI_CHAR *	a_pValue,
		const SI_CHAR *	a_pComment = `NULL`,
		bool	a_bForceReplace = `false`
	)

inline

Add or update a section or value. This will always insert when multiple keys are enabled.

Parameters

a_pSection	Section to add or update
a_pKey	Key to add or update. Set to NULL to create an empty section.
a_pValue	Value to set. Set to NULL to create an empty section.
a_pComment	Comment to be associated with the section or the key. If a_pKey is NULL then it will be associated with the section, otherwise the key. Note that a comment may be set ONLY when the section or key is first created (i.e. when this function returns the value SI_INSERTED). If you wish to create a section with a comment then you need to create the section separately to the key. The comment string must be in full comment form already (have a comment character starting every line).
a_bForceReplace	Should all existing values in a multi-key INI file be replaced with this entry. This option has no effect if not using multi-key files. The difference between Delete/SetValue and SetValue with a_bForceReplace = true, is that the load order and comment will be preserved this way.

Returns: SI_Error See error definitions; SI_UPDATED Value was updated; SI_INSERTED Value was inserted

◆ UsingQuotes()

template<class SI_CHAR , class SI_STRLESS , class SI_CONVERTER >

bool CSimpleIniTempl< SI_CHAR, SI_STRLESS, SI_CONVERTER >::UsingQuotes ( ) const

inline

Are we permitting keys and values to be quoted?

◆ UsingSpaces()

template<class SI_CHAR , class SI_STRLESS , class SI_CONVERTER >

bool CSimpleIniTempl< SI_CHAR, SI_STRLESS, SI_CONVERTER >::UsingSpaces ( ) const

inline

Query the status of spaces output
