INISection.h

[Zippzipp]

Hello everyone. I created this little wrapper around WritePrivateProfileString for INI stuff.

It is very basic but provides a much more user friendly interface to INIs from plugins.


INISection.h

class INISection {

public:	
	INISection(char *sectionName){
		this->sectionName = sectionName;
	}

	void setKeyValue(char *key, char *value){
		WritePrivateProfileString(this->sectionName, key, value, INIFileName);
	}

	char *getValueForKey(char *key){
		CHAR value[MAX_STRING] = { 0 };
		GetPrivateProfileString(this->sectionName, key, "", value, MAX_STRING, INIFileName);
		return value;
	}
	
private:
	char *sectionName;
};

Usage:

		INISection *section = new INISection("SectionName");
		section->setKeyValue("MyKey", "NewValue");
                value = section->getValueForKey("MyKey");

This snippet assumes you are using the default INI name for your plugin. There is no error checking or defaults for the sectionName, feel free to use this as a starting spot and enhance it.
