Something like this reads a few keys from a Desktop file :
KeyFile kf = new KeyFile ();
kf.load_from_file (config_file, KeyFileFlags.NONE);
string group = "Desktop Entry";
if (kf.has_group (group) == false)
return false;
string key;
string type = "";
key = "Type";
if (kf.has_key (group, key) == true) {
type = kf.get_value (group, key);
//stdout.printf ("Type: %s\n", type);
}
string name = "";
key = "Name";
if (kf.has_key (group, key) == true) {
name = kf.get_value (group, key);
//stdout.printf ("Name: %s\n", name);
}
Very handy and something like this to save to a file :
File file = File.new_for_path (config_file);
// delete if file already exists
if (file.query_exists ()) {
file.delete ();
}
string config = "";
DataOutputStream dos = new DataOutputStream (file.create
(FileCreateFlags.REPLACE_DESTINATION));
config += "key01=value1\n";
config += "key02=value2\n";
dos.put_string (config);
It's possible to use a fixed size buffer instead of DataOutputStream I
think...
Anyway, it's great to write some programs in Vala, congratulations.
:)
