Version 4.17 +
+ + Jump to the @link CSimpleIniTempl CSimpleIni @endlink interface documentation. + + @section intro INTRODUCTION + + This component allows an INI-style configuration file to be used on both + Windows and Linux/Unix. It is fast, simple and source code using this + component will compile unchanged on either OS. + + + @section features FEATURES + + - MIT Licence allows free use in all software (including GPL and commercial) + - multi-platform (Windows CE/9x/NT..10/etc, Linux, MacOSX, Unix) + - loading and saving of INI-style configuration files + - configuration files can have any newline format on all platforms + - liberal acceptance of file format + - key/values with no section + - removal of whitespace around sections, keys and values + - support for multi-line values (values with embedded newline characters) + - optional support for multiple keys with the same name + - optional case-insensitive sections and keys (for ASCII characters only) + - saves files with sections and keys in the same order as they were loaded + - preserves comments on the file, section and keys where possible. + - supports both char or wchar_t programming interfaces + - supports both MBCS (system locale) and UTF-8 file encodings + - system locale does not need to be UTF-8 on Linux/Unix to load UTF-8 file + - support for non-ASCII characters in section, keys, values and comments + - support for non-standard character types or file encodings + via user-written converter classes + - support for adding/modifying values programmatically + - compiles cleanly in the following compilers: + - Windows/VC6 (warning level 3) + - Windows/VC.NET 2003 (warning level 4) + - Windows/VC 2005 (warning level 4) + - Linux/gcc (-Wall) + + + @section usage USAGE SUMMARY + + -# Define the appropriate symbol for the converter you wish to use and + include the SimpleIni.h header file. If no specific converter is defined + then the default converter is used. The default conversion mode uses + SI_CONVERT_WIN32 on Windows and SI_CONVERT_GENERIC on all other + platforms. If you are using ICU then SI_CONVERT_ICU is supported on all + platforms. + -# Declare an instance the appropriate class. Note that the following + definitions are just shortcuts for commonly used types. Other types + (PRUnichar, unsigned short, unsigned char) are also possible. + +
Interface Case-sensitive Load UTF-8 Load MBCS Typedef +
SI_CONVERT_GENERIC +
char No Yes Yes #1 CSimpleIniA +
char Yes Yes Yes CSimpleIniCaseA +
wchar_t No Yes Yes CSimpleIniW +
wchar_t Yes Yes Yes CSimpleIniCaseW +
SI_CONVERT_WIN32 +
char No No #2 Yes CSimpleIniA +
char Yes Yes Yes CSimpleIniCaseA +
wchar_t No Yes Yes CSimpleIniW +
wchar_t Yes Yes Yes CSimpleIniCaseW +
SI_CONVERT_ICU +

UChar No Yes Yes CSimpleIniW +
UChar Yes Yes Yes CSimpleIniCaseW +
+ #1 On Windows you are better to use CSimpleIniA with SI_CONVERT_WIN32.
+ #2 Only affects Windows. On Windows this uses MBCS functions and + so may fold case incorrectly leading to uncertain results. + -# Call LoadData() or LoadFile() to load and parse the INI configuration file + -# Access and modify the data of the file using the following functions + +
GetAllSections Return all section names +
GetAllKeys Return all key names within a section +
GetAllValues Return all values within a section & key +
GetSection Return all key names and values in a section +
GetSectionSize Return the number of keys in a section +
GetValue Return a value for a section & key +
SetValue Add or update a value for a section & key +
Delete Remove a section, or a key from a section +
+ -# Call Save() or SaveFile() to save the INI configuration data + + @section iostreams IO STREAMS + + SimpleIni supports reading from and writing to STL IO streams. Enable this + by defining SI_SUPPORT_IOSTREAMS before including the SimpleIni.h header + file. Ensure that if the streams are backed by a file (e.g. ifstream or + ofstream) then the flag ios_base::binary has been used when the file was + opened. + + @section multiline MULTI-LINE VALUES + + Values that span multiple lines are created using the following format. + + 
+        key = <<
+
+    Note the following:
+    - The text used for ENDTAG can be anything and is used to find
+      where the multi-line text ends.
+    - The newline after ENDTAG in the start tag, and the newline
+      before ENDTAG in the end tag is not included in the data value.
+    - The ending tag must be on it's own line with no whitespace before
+      or after it.
+    - The multi-line value is modified at load so that each line in the value
+      is delimited by a single '\\n' character on all platforms. At save time
+      it will be converted into the newline format used by the current
+      platform.
+
+    @section comments COMMENTS
+
+    Comments are preserved in the file within the following restrictions:
+    - Every file may have a single "file comment". It must start with the
+      first character in the file, and will end with the first non-comment
+      line in the file.
+    - Every section may have a single "section comment". It will start
+      with the first comment line following the file comment, or the last
+      data entry. It ends at the beginning of the section.
+    - Every key may have a single "key comment". This comment will start
+      with the first comment line following the section start, or the file
+      comment if there is no section name.
+    - Comments are set at the time that the file, section or key is first
+      created. The only way to modify a comment on a section or a key is to
+      delete that entry and recreate it with the new comment. There is no
+      way to change the file comment.
+
+    @section save SAVE ORDER
+
+    The sections and keys are written out in the same order as they were
+    read in from the file. Sections and keys added to the data after the
+    file has been loaded will be added to the end of the file when it is
+    written. There is no way to specify the location of a section or key
+    other than in first-created, first-saved order.
+
+    @section notes NOTES
+
+    - To load UTF-8 data on Windows 95, you need to use Microsoft Layer for
+      Unicode, or SI_CONVERT_GENERIC, or SI_CONVERT_ICU.
+    - When using SI_CONVERT_GENERIC, ConvertUTF.c must be compiled and linked.
+    - When using SI_CONVERT_ICU, ICU header files must be on the include
+      path and icuuc.lib must be linked in.
+    - To load a UTF-8 file on Windows AND expose it with SI_CHAR == char,
+      you should use SI_CONVERT_GENERIC.
+    - The collation (sorting) order used for sections and keys returned from
+      iterators is NOT DEFINED. If collation order of the text is important
+      then it should be done yourself by either supplying a replacement
+      SI_STRLESS class, or by sorting the strings external to this library.
+    - Usage of the  header on Windows can be disabled by defining
+      SI_NO_MBCS. This is defined automatically on Windows CE platforms.
+    - Not thread-safe so manage your own locking

+    Conversions between UTF32, UTF-16, and UTF-8. Source code file.
+    Author: Mark E. Davis, 1994.
+    Rev History: Rick McGowan, fixes & updates May 2001.
+    Sept 2001: fixed const & error conditions per
+	mods suggested by S. Parent & A. Lillich.
+    June 2002: Tim Dodd added detection and handling of incomplete
+	source sequences, enhanced error detection, added casts
+	to eliminate compiler warnings.
+    July 2003: slight mods to back out aggressive FFFE detection.
+    Jan 2004: updated switches in from-UTF8 conversions.
+    Oct 2004: updated to use UNI_MAX_LEGAL_UTF32 in UTF-32 conversions.
+
+    See the header file "ConvertUTF.h" for complete documentation.
