Detailed Description

KDE Configuration entries KDE Configuration Management class with deletion ability.

This is a trivial extension of KConfig for applications that need only one configuration file and no default system. A difference with KConfig is that when the data in memory is written back it is not merged with what is on disk. Whatever is in memory simply replaces what is on disk entirely.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

KSimpleConfig::KSimpleConfig const QString fileName,
bool  bReadOnly = false
 

Construct a KSimpleConfig object and make it either read-write or read-only.

Parameters:
pFileName The file used for saving the config data. Either a full path can be specified or just the filename. If only a filename is specified, the default directory for "config" files is used.
bReadOnly Whether the object should be read-only.

Definition at line 39 of file ksimpleconfig.cpp.

References KConfigBase::backEnd, KConfigBackEnd::changeFileName(), KGlobal::dirs(), QString::isNull(), KConfig::reparseConfiguration(), and KConfigBase::setReadOnly().

KSimpleConfig::~KSimpleConfig  )  [virtual]
 

Destructor.

Writes back any dirty configuration entries.

Member Function Documentation

void KSimpleConfig::sync  )  [virtual]
 

Flushes all changes that currently reside only in memory back to disk / permanent storage.

Dirty configuration entries are written to the most specific file available.

Asks the back end to flush out all pending writes, and then calls rollback(). No changes are made if the object has readOnly status.

You should call this from your destructor in derivative classes.

rollback(), isReadOnly()

Reimplemented from KConfigBase.
