Inheritance diagram for wxConfigBase:

Detailed Description

wxConfigBase defines the basic interface of all config classes.

It cannot be used by itself (it is an abstract base class) and you will always use one of its derivations: wxFileConfig, wxRegConfig or any other.

However, usually you don't even need to know the precise nature of the class you're working with but you would just use the wxConfigBase methods. This allows you to write the same code regardless of whether you're working with the registry under Windows or text-based config files under Unix. To make writing the portable code even easier, wxWidgets provides a typedef wxConfig which is mapped onto the native wxConfigBase implementation on the given platform: i.e. wxRegConfig under Windows and wxFileConfig otherwise.

See wxConfig Overview for a description of all features of this class.

It is highly recommended to use static functions Get() and/or Set(), so please have a look at them.

Related Include Files:

Here is how you would typically use this class:

    // using wxConfig instead of writing wxFileConfig or wxRegConfig enhances
    // portability of the code
    wxConfig *config = new wxConfig("MyAppName");

    wxString str;
    if ( config->Read("LastPrompt", &str) ) {
        // last prompt was found in the config file/registry and its value is
        // now in str
        // ...
    }
    else {
        // no last prompt...
    }

    // another example: using default values and the full path instead of just
    // key name: if the key is not found , the value 17 is returned
    long value = config->ReadLong("/LastRun/CalculatedValues/MaxValue", 17);

    // at the end of the program we would save everything back
    config->Write("LastPrompt", str);
    config->Write("/LastRun/CalculatedValues/MaxValue", value);

    // the changes will be written back automatically
    delete config;

This basic example, of course, doesn't show all wxConfig features, such as enumerating, testing for existence and deleting the entries and groups of entries in the config file, its abilities to automatically store the default values or expand the environment variables on the fly. However, the main idea is that using this class is easy and that it should normally do what you expect it to.

注:
In the documentation of this class, the words "config file" also mean "registry hive" for wxRegConfig and, generally speaking, might mean any physical storage where a wxConfigBase-derived class stores its data.

Static Functions

The static functions provided deal with the "default" config object. Although its usage is not at all mandatory it may be convenient to use a global config object instead of creating and deleting the local config objects each time you need one (especially because creating a wxFileConfig object might be a time consuming operation). In this case, you may create this global config object in the very start of the program and Set() it as the default. Then, from anywhere in your program, you may access it using the Get() function. This global wxConfig object will be deleted by wxWidgets automatically if it exists. Note that this implies that if you do delete this object yourself (usually in wxApp::OnExit()) you must use Set(NULL) to prevent wxWidgets from deleting it the second time.

As it happens, you may even further simplify the procedure described above: you may forget about calling Set(). When Get() is called and there is no current object, it will create one using Create() function. To disable this behaviour DontCreateOnDemand() is provided.

注:
You should use either Set() or Get() because wxWidgets library itself would take advantage of it and could save various information in it. For example wxFontMapper or Unix version of wxFileDialog have the ability to use wxConfig class.

Path Management

As explained in the config overview, the config classes support a file system-like hierarchy of keys (files) and groups (directories). As in the file system case, to specify a key in the config class you must use a path to it. Config classes also support the notion of the current group, which makes it possible to use the relative paths. To clarify all this, here is an example (it is only for the sake of demonstration, it doesn't do anything sensible!):

    wxConfig *config = new wxConfig("FooBarApp");

    // right now the current path is '/'
    conf->Write("RootEntry", 1);

    // go to some other place: if the group(s) don't exist, they will be created
    conf->SetPath("/Group/Subgroup");

    // create an entry in subgroup
    conf->Write("SubgroupEntry", 3);

    // '..' is understood
    conf->Write("../GroupEntry", 2);
    conf->SetPath("..");

    wxASSERT( conf->ReadLong("Subgroup/SubgroupEntry", 0) == 3 );

    // use absolute path: it is allowed, too
    wxASSERT( conf->ReadLong("/RootEntry", 0) == 1 );

It is highly recommended that you restore the path to its old value on function exit:

    void foo(wxConfigBase *config)
    {
        wxString strOldPath = config->GetPath();

        config->SetPath("/Foo/Data");
        // ...

        config->SetPath(strOldPath);
    }

Otherwise the assert in the following example will surely fail (we suppose here that the foo() function is the same as above except that it doesn’t save and restore the path):

    void bar(wxConfigBase *config)
    {
        config->Write("Test", 17);

        foo(config);

        // we're reading "/Foo/Data/Test" here!-1 will probably be returned...
        wxASSERT( config->ReadLong("Test", -1) == 17 );
    }

Finally, the path separator in wxConfigBase and derived classes is always "/", regardless of the platform (i.e. it is not "\\" under Windows).

Enumeration

The enumeration functions allow you to enumerate all entries and groups in the config file. All functions here return false when there are no more items.

You must pass the same index to GetNext() and GetFirst() (don't modify it). Please note that it is not the index of the current item (you will have some great surprises with wxRegConfig if you assume this) and you shouldn't even look at it: it is just a "cookie" which stores the state of the enumeration. It can't be stored inside the class because it would prevent you from running several enumerations simultaneously, that's why you must pass it explicitly.

Having said all this, enumerating the config entries/groups is very simple:

    wxConfigBase *config = ...;
    wxArrayString aNames;

    // enumeration variables
    wxString str;
    long dummy;

    // first enum all entries
    bool bCont = config->GetFirstEntry(str, dummy);
    while ( bCont ) {
        aNames.Add(str);

        bCont = GetConfig()->GetNextEntry(str, dummy);
    }

    // ... we have all entry names in aNames...

    // now all groups...
    bCont = GetConfig()->GetFirstGroup(str, dummy);
    while ( bCont ) {
        aNames.Add(str);

        bCont = GetConfig()->GetNextGroup(str, dummy);
    }

    // ... we have all group (and entry) names in aNames...

There are also functions to get the number of entries/subgroups without actually enumerating them, but you will probably never need them.

Key Access

The key access functions are the core of wxConfigBase class: they allow you to read and write config file data. All Read() functions take a default value which will be returned if the specified key is not found in the config file.

Currently, supported types of data are: wxString, long, double, bool, wxColour and any other types for which the functions wxToString() and wxFromString() are defined.

Try not to read long values into string variables and vice versa: although it just might work with wxFileConfig, you will get a system error with wxRegConfig because in the Windows registry the different types of entries are indeed used.

Final remark: the szKey parameter for all these functions can contain an arbitrary path (either relative or absolute), not just the key name.

virtual bool DeleteEntry (const wxString &key, bool bDeleteGroupIfEmpty=true)=0
 Deletes the specified entry and the group it belongs to if it was the last key in it and the second parameter is true.
virtual bool DeleteGroup (const wxString &key)=0
 Delete the group (with all subgroups).
Options

Some aspects of wxConfigBase behaviour can be changed during run-time.

The first of them is the expansion of environment variables in the string values read from the config file: for example, if you have the following in your config file:

        # config file for my program
        UserData = $HOME/data

        # the following syntax is valud only under Windows
        UserData = %windir%\\data.dat

The call to Read("UserData") will return something like "/home/zeitlin/data" on linux for example.

Although this feature is very useful, it may be annoying if you read a value which containts '$' or '%' symbols (% is used for environment variables expansion under Windows) which are not used for environment variable expansion. In this situation you may call SetExpandEnvVars(false) just before reading this value and SetExpandEnvVars(true) just after. Another solution would be to prefix the offending symbols with a backslash.

bool IsExpandingEnvVars () const
 Returns true if we are expanding environment variables in key values.
bool IsRecordingDefaults () const
 Returns true if we are writing defaults back to the config file.
void SetExpandEnvVars (bool bDoIt=true)
 Determine whether we wish to expand environment variables in key values.
void SetRecordDefaults (bool bDoIt=true)
 Sets whether defaults are recorded to the config file whenever an attempt to read the value which is not present in it is done.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

wxConfigBase::wxConfigBase ( const wxString appName = wxEmptyString,
const wxString vendorName = wxEmptyString,
const wxString localFilename = wxEmptyString,
const wxString globalFilename = wxEmptyString,
long  style = 0,
const wxMBConv conv = wxConvAuto() 
)

This is the default and only constructor of the wxConfigBase class, and derived classes.

Parameters:
appNameThe application name. If this is empty, the class will normally use wxApp::GetAppName() to set it. The application name is used in the registry key on Windows, and can be used to deduce the local filename parameter if that is missing.
vendorNameThe vendor name. If this is empty, it is assumed that no vendor name is wanted, if this is optional for the current config class. The vendor name is appended to the application name for wxRegConfig.
localFilenameSome config classes require a local filename. If this is not present, but required, the application name will be used instead.
globalFilenameSome config classes require a global filename. If this is not present, but required, the application name will be used instead.
styleCan be one of wxCONFIG_USE_LOCAL_FILE and wxCONFIG_USE_GLOBAL_FILE.
The style interpretation depends on the config class and is ignored by some implementations. For wxFileConfig, these styles determine whether a local or global config file is created or used: if wxCONFIG_USE_GLOBAL_FILE is used, then settings are read from the global config file and if wxCONFIG_USE_LOCAL_FILE is used, settings are read from and written to local config file (if they are both set, global file is read first, then local file, overwriting global settings). If the flag is present but the parameter is empty, the parameter will be set to a default. If the parameter is present but the style flag not, the relevant flag will be added to the style. For wxRegConfig, the GLOBAL flag refers to the HKLM key while LOCAL one is for the usual HKCU one.
For wxFileConfig you can also add wxCONFIG_USE_RELATIVE_PATH by logically or'ing it to either of the _FILE options to tell wxFileConfig to use relative instead of absolute paths.
On non-VMS Unix systems, the default local configuration file is "~/.appname". However, this path may be also used as user data directory (see wxStandardPaths::GetUserDataDir()) if the application has several data files. In this case wxCONFIG_USE_SUBDIR flag, which changes the default local configuration file to "~/.appname/appname" should be used. Notice that this flag is ignored if localFilename is provided. wxCONFIG_USE_SUBDIR is new since wxWidgets version 2.8.2.
For wxFileConfig, you can also add wxCONFIG_USE_NO_ESCAPE_CHARACTERS which will turn off character escaping for the values of entries stored in the config file: for example a foo key with some backslash characters will be stored as "foo=C:\mydir" instead of the usual storage of "foo=C:\\mydir".
The wxCONFIG_USE_NO_ESCAPE_CHARACTERS style can be helpful if your config file must be read or written to by a non-wxWidgets program (which might not understand the escape characters). Note, however, that if wxCONFIG_USE_NO_ESCAPE_CHARACTERS style is used, it is now your application's responsibility to ensure that there is no newline or other illegal characters in a value, before writing that value to the file.
convThis parameter is only used by wxFileConfig when compiled in Unicode mode. It specifies the encoding in which the configuration file is written.
注意:
By default, environment variable expansion is on and recording defaults is off.
virtual wxConfigBase::~wxConfigBase ( ) [virtual]

Empty but ensures that dtor of all derived classes is virtual.


Member Function Documentation

static wxConfigBase* wxConfigBase::Create ( ) [static]

Create a new config object and sets it as the current one.

This function will create the most appropriate implementation of wxConfig available for the current platform. By default this means that the system registry will be used for storing the configuration information under MSW and a file under the user home directory (see wxStandardPaths::GetUserConfigDir()) elsewhere.

If you prefer to use the configuration files everywhere, you can define wxUSE_CONFIG_NATIVE to 0 when compiling wxWidgets. Or you can simply always create wxFileConfig explicitly.

Finally, if you want to create a custom wxConfig subclass you may change this function behaviour by overriding wxAppTraits::CreateConfig() to create it. An example when this could be useful could be an application which could be installed either normally (in which case the default behaviour of using wxRegConfig is appropriate) or in a "portable" way in which case a wxFileConfig with a file in the program directory would be used and the choice would be done in CreateConfig() at run-time.

virtual bool wxConfigBase::DeleteAll ( ) [pure virtual]

Delete the whole underlying object (disk file, registry key, ...).

Primarily for use by uninstallation routine.

Implemented in wxFileConfig.

virtual bool wxConfigBase::DeleteEntry ( const wxString key,
bool  bDeleteGroupIfEmpty = true 
) [pure virtual]

Deletes the specified entry and the group it belongs to if it was the last key in it and the second parameter is true.

Implemented in wxFileConfig.

virtual bool wxConfigBase::DeleteGroup ( const wxString key) [pure virtual]

Delete the group (with all subgroups).

If the current path is under the group being deleted it is changed to its deepest still existing component. E.g. if the current path is "/A/B/C/D" and the group C is deleted, the path becomes "/A/B".

Implemented in wxFileConfig.

static void wxConfigBase::DontCreateOnDemand ( ) [static]

Calling this function will prevent Get() from automatically creating a new config object if the current one is NULL.

It might be useful to call it near the program end to prevent "accidental" creation of a new config object.

bool wxConfigBase::Exists ( const wxString strName) const
Returns:
true if either a group or an entry with a given name exists.
virtual bool wxConfigBase::Flush ( bool  bCurrentOnly = false) [pure virtual]

Permanently writes all changes (otherwise, they're only written from object's destructor).

Implemented in wxFileConfig.

static wxConfigBase* wxConfigBase::Get ( bool  CreateOnDemand = true) [static]

Get the current config object.

If there is no current object and CreateOnDemand is true, this creates one (using Create()) unless DontCreateOnDemand() was called previously.

wxString wxConfigBase::GetAppName ( ) const

Returns the application name.

virtual wxConfigBase::EntryType wxConfigBase::GetEntryType ( const wxString name) const [virtual]

Returns the type of the given entry or Unknown if the entry doesn't exist.

This function should be used to decide which version of Read() should be used because some of wxConfig implementations will complain about type mismatch otherwise: e.g., an attempt to read a string value from an integer key with wxRegConfig will fail.

virtual bool wxConfigBase::GetFirstEntry ( wxString str,
long &  index 
) const [pure virtual]

wxPerl Note: In wxPerl this method takes no parameters and returns a 3-element list (continue_flag, string, index_for_getnextentry).

Implemented in wxFileConfig.

virtual bool wxConfigBase::GetFirstGroup ( wxString str,
long &  index 
) const [pure virtual]

Gets the first group.

wxPerl Note: In wxPerl this method takes no parameters and returns a 3-element list (continue_flag, string, index_for_getnextentry).

Implemented in wxFileConfig.

virtual bool wxConfigBase::GetNextEntry ( wxString str,
long &  index 
) const [pure virtual]

wxPerl Note: In wxPerl this method only takes the index parameter and returns a 3-element list (continue_flag, string, index_for_getnextentry).

Implemented in wxFileConfig.

virtual bool wxConfigBase::GetNextGroup ( wxString str,
long &  index 
) const [pure virtual]

Gets the next group.

wxPerl Note: In wxPerl this method only takes the index parameter and returns a 3-element list (continue_flag, string, index_for_getnextentry).

Retrieve the current path (always as absolute path).

Implemented in wxFileConfig.

wxString wxConfigBase::GetVendorName ( ) const

Returns the vendor name.

virtual bool wxConfigBase::HasEntry ( const wxString strName) const [pure virtual]

Reads a double value from the key and returns it.

defaultVal is returned if the key is not found.

long wxConfigBase::ReadLong ( const wxString key,
long  defaultVal 
) const

Reads a long value from the key and returns it.

defaultVal is returned if the key is not found.

T wxConfigBase::ReadObject ( const wxString key,
T const &  defaultVal 
) const

Reads a value of type T (for which the function wxFromString() must be defined) from the key and returns it.

defaultVal is returned if the key is not found.

virtual bool wxConfigBase::RenameEntry ( const wxString oldName,
const wxString newName 
) [pure virtual]

Renames an entry in the current group.

The entries names (both the old and the new one) shouldn't contain backslashes, i.e. only simple names and not arbitrary paths are accepted by this function.

Returns:
false if oldName doesn't exist or if newName already exists.

Implemented in wxFileConfig.

virtual bool wxConfigBase::RenameGroup ( const wxString oldName,
const wxString newName 
) [pure virtual]

Renames a subgroup of the current group.

The subgroup names (both the old and the new one) shouldn't contain backslashes, i.e. only simple names and not arbitrary paths are accepted by this function.

Returns:
false if oldName doesn't exist or if newName already exists.

Implemented in wxFileConfig.

static wxConfigBase* wxConfigBase::Set ( wxConfigBase pConfig) [static]

Sets the config object as the current one, returns the pointer to the previous current object (both the parameter and returned value may be NULL).

void wxConfigBase::SetExpandEnvVars ( bool  bDoIt = true)

Determine whether we wish to expand environment variables in key values.

virtual void wxConfigBase::SetPath ( const wxString strPath) [pure virtual]

Set current path: if the first character is '/', it is the absolute path, otherwise it is a relative path.

'..' is supported. If strPath doesn't exist, it is created.

参照:
wxConfigPathChanger

Implemented in wxFileConfig.

void wxConfigBase::SetRecordDefaults ( bool  bDoIt = true)

Sets whether defaults are recorded to the config file whenever an attempt to read the value which is not present in it is done.

If on (default is off) all default values for the settings used by the program are written back to the config file. This allows the user to see what config options may be changed and is probably useful only for wxFileConfig.

bool wxConfigBase::Write ( const wxString key,
bool  value 
)

Writes the bool value to the config file and returns true on success.

bool wxConfigBase::Write ( const wxString key,
double  value 
)

Writes the double value to the config file and returns true on success.

Notice that if floating point numbers are saved as strings (as is the case with the configuration files used by wxFileConfig), this function uses the C locale for writing out the number, i.e. it will always use a period as the decimal separator, irrespectively of the current locale. This behaviour is new since wxWidgets 2.9.1 as the current locale was used before, but the change should be transparent because both C and current locales are tried when reading the numbers back.

bool wxConfigBase::Write ( const wxString key,
const wxMemoryBuffer buf 
)

Writes the wxMemoryBuffer value to the config file and returns true on success.

bool wxConfigBase::Write ( const wxString key,
long  value 
)

Writes the long value to the config file and returns true on success.

bool wxConfigBase::Write ( const wxString key,
T const &  buf 
)

Writes the specified value to the config file and returns true on success.

The function wxToString() must be defined for type T.

bool wxConfigBase::Write ( const wxString key,
const wxString value 
)

Writes the wxString value to the config file and returns true on success.
