Class TCastleConfig
Unit
CastleXMLConfig
Declaration
type TCastleConfig = class(TXMLConfig)
Description
Store configuration in XML format.
This is a descendant of TXMLConfig that adds various small extensions: float types (GetFloat, SetFloat, SetDeleteFloat), vector types, key (TKey) types, PathElement utility.

function PathElement(const APath: string): TDOMElement; |
For a given path, return corresponding DOM element of XML tree. This is useful if you want to mix XMLConfig style operations on the file and then use some real DOM functions to more directly operate/read on XML document.
Note that for paths that you pass to various SetValue versions, the last path component is the attribute name. You do not pass this here. Path passed here should end with the name of final element.
Path passed here may but doesn't have to be terminated by a final slash. In fact, for now the path is just splitted using slash character as a separator, so a path like /some////path/ is equivalent to a path like (some/path). But don't depend on this behavior.
Returns nil if there is no such element.
Remember that XMLConfig idea of XML document is limited. That's intentional (XMLConfig is supposed to offer only a simple limited XML access), and this means that some XML trees may confuse XMLConfig. For example, if there are two elements with the same TagName as a children of the same element: XMLConfig will (probably ?) just always ignore the second one. Which means that if you use this method to change some XML content, you should be careful when accessing this content from regular XMLConfig Get/SetValue methods.
|
 |
function GetURL(const APath: string; const EmptyIfNoAttribute: boolean = false): string; |
Read an URL from an XML attribute. The attribute in an XML file may be an absolute or relative URL, (we will look at own TXMLConfig.FileName directory to resolve relative URLs). The returned URL is always an absolute URL.
If EmptyIfNoAttribute, then this will just set URL to '' if appropriate XML attribute not found. Otherwise (when EmptyIfNoAttribute = False , this is default), error will be raised.
Exceptions raised
- EMissingAttribute
- If EmptyIfNoAttribute =
False and no such attribute.
|
 |
function GetNonEmptyValue(const APath: string): string; |
Get a value, as a string. Value must exist and cannot be empty in XML file.
Exceptions raised
- EMissingAttribute
- If value doesn't exist or is empty in XML file.
|
 |
procedure NotModified; |
|
 |
procedure Load(const AURL: string); |
Load the current configuration of the engine components. Sets URL and FileName, loading the appropriate file to our properties, and then calls the OnLoad callbacks to allow all engine components read their settings.
Accepts URL as parameter, converting it to a local filename under the hood.
The overloaded parameter-less version chooses a suitable filename for storing per-program user preferences. It uses ApplicationName to pick a filename that is unique to your application (usually you want to assign OnGetApplicationName callback to set your name, unless you're fine with default determination that looks at stuff like ParamStr(0)). See FPC OnGetApplicationName docs. It uses ApplicationConfig to determine location of this file.
The overloaded version with TStream parameter loads from a stream. The URL is always set to empty.
|
 |
procedure Load; |
|
 |
procedure Load(const Stream: TStream); |
|
 |
procedure Save; |
Save the configuration of all engine components. Calls the OnSave callbacks to allow all engine components to store their settings in our properties, and then flushes them to disk (using FileName property, synchronized with URL property) by inherited Flush method.
The overloaded version with TStream parameter saves to a stream. If does not use inherited Flush method, instead it always unconditionally dumps contents to stream.

procedure Save(const Stream: TStream); |
