Origin Version (Select Help-->About Origin): 7.5SR5
Operating System: 2000

Hi,

I'd like to add a new key and value to an (nlsf.) ini file with Origin C. How can I do this? I presume I can use writeini to add /alter a value for an existing key.

Thanks,

Cheers,

pete

Hi Pete,

Origin 7.5's INIFile::WriteInt and INIFile::WriteString will create the keys and sections named as arguments if they don't already exist. (It will even create the INI file if necessary.) This will add a key called MyInt (and sets its value to 50) to the NLSF Control section of NLSF.ini on the user path.

INIFile ini("NLSF.ini");
ini.WriteInt("NLSF Control", "MyInt", 50);

Thanks Mike,

I'm going to use this to auto-update ini files for all our client users.


Cheers,

Pete
