Lib_INI

the LIB_INI is used to access/save/load parameters in a text file

Main function is Tinikey.Read(URL) to access/create the INI file. If there’s nothing, it will be created.

Any parameter in the text file is written in the following way

KEY=VALUE
KEY=VALUE1,VALUE2,VALUE3

Keys are always uppercase.

You can create a combination key/value using the following functions

Tinikey.Set("KEY1","VALUE")
Tinikey.Define("KEY1","Value")

with SET you can create a combination, while DEFINE creates the combinations ONLY if it doesn’t exist. Otherwise the value in the file have precedence.

Tinikey.Save()

will save (to the file) all the keys-value combinations.

Tinikey.Reload()

will force a reload of the content, clearing every data first.

Tinikey.Exist(KEY)

returns TRUE if the key exists.

Tinikey.Check(KEY,VALUE)

returns TRUE if the keys exists and it has the same value of VALUE

Tinkey.Get(KEY)
Tinkey.GetInt(KEY)
Tinkey.GetFloat(KEY)

These will return – for the given KEY – a string, an Integer or a Float

It’s possibile to have the list of all the keys saved

Local keys:String[]=Tinikey.GetKeys()

Otherwise you can retrieve, in a single command, all the values in the INI file

Local arr:String[]=Tinikey.GetKeyValues()

You can extract the values of a key, like in the following example

Tinikey.Define("OPTIONS","ALFA,BETA,GAMMA")

Local arr:string[]=Tinikey.GetValues("OPTIONS")

Arr (as an array) will contain ‘ALFA, BETA and GAMMA’

You can also store in a KEY an array with the following command

Tinikey.SetValues("MULTI",array:string[])

The last option is to remove a key from the INI file

Tinikey.RemoveKey(KEYNAME)

of course you must remember to save (with Tinikey.Save()) to write the changes to the file.
