I wonder if someone has to share configuration manager, which will be configurable - not specific for his application, enable to write selected setting to .ini file (or xml or any else)?
If not, Im starting such a new job.
I want to declare sections, variable in section, variable types, variable ranges and which local or private variable must be se while read from .ini file.

Hi Marek,
I do not exact know what your idea is. But in some of my programs I use something like :
Code: Select all
MEMVAR cEmailType:="DefaultValue"
if !File("program.ini")
Begin ini file ("program.ini"")
Set Section "INVOICE" ENTRY "EmailType" To cEmailType
End ini
else
Begin ini file ("program.ini"")
Get cEmailType Section "INVOICE" ENTRY "EmailType"
End Ini
endif
And I use a menu item to change the settings:
Code: Select all
EXECUTE FILE GetStartUpFolder() + '\' + 'Program.ini'
