How to read/write the registry?
Posted: 9 Jun 00
|
The best way to access to the registry is using TRegistry class.
TRegistry *Path;
Registry has "Keys" and "Values". Keys are "like" directories and Values are "like" files. With TRegistry class you can access to one Key setting the "RootKey" and then Open a key below it.
Path=new TRegistry; Path->RootKey=HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE; // Or other Root key Path->OpenKey("\\Software\\MySoftware",true); // Open or create
Then, you can access to single "Values" by name. They can be BinaryData, Bool, Currency, Date, DateTime, Float, String, Integer and Time.
// To assure you have a value : if (!Path->ValueExists("MyValue")){ Path->WriteInteger("MyValue",_DEFAUL_VALUE); }
// To Read : int Value; Value=Path->ReadInteger("MyKey"); // or String Value; Value=Path->ReadString("MyKey"); ...
// Write : int Value; Path->WriteInteger("MyKey",Value); // or String Value; Path->WriteInteger("MyKey",Value); ... delete Path;
