Detailed Description

Traditional keypair config file parsing class.

This is used to get generic config data either from a /etc/xxx.conf, a windows style xxx.ini file, or a ~/.xxxrc file, and parses [] sections from the entire file at once.

Definition at line 150 of file keydata.h.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ucommon::keyfile::keyfile

(

size_t

pagesize = 0

)

Create an empty key file ready for loading.

Parameters

pagesize

for memory paging.

ucommon::keyfile::keyfile	(	const char *	path,
		size_t	pagesize = 0
	)

Create a key file object from an existing config file.

Parameters

path	to load from.
pagesize	for memory paging.

Member Function Documentation

keydata* ucommon::keyfile::begin ( void  ) const

inline

Get first keydata object, for iterative examinations.

Returns

first key value in chain.

Definition at line 238 of file keydata.h.

Here is the call graph for this function:

keydata* ucommon::keyfile::end ( void  ) const

inline

Get last keydata object, for iterative examinations.

Returns

first key value in chain.

Definition at line 245 of file keydata.h.

keydata* ucommon::keyfile::get

(

const char *

section

)

const

Get a keydata section name.

Parameters

section

name to look for.

Returns

keydata section object if found, NULL if not.

keydata* ucommon::keyfile::get ( void  ) const

inline

Get the non-sectioned defaults if there are any.

Returns

default key section.

Definition at line 231 of file keydata.h.

void ucommon::keyfile::load

(

const char *

path

)

Load (overlay) another config file over the currently loaded one.

This is used to merge key data, such as getting default values from a global config, and then overlaying a local home config file.

Parameters

path	to load keys from into current object.

void ucommon::keyfile::load

(

const keyfile *

source

)

Load from an existing keyfile object.

Parameters

source

to copy from.

void ucommon::keyfile::load

(

const keydata *

source

)

Load a single set of keys.

Parameters

source

of keys to copy.

bool ucommon::keyfile::save

(

const char *

path

)

Save (write) a set of config keys to dist.

Parameters

path	of file to save keys to.

Returns

true on success.
