| <<TableOfContents>> == Overview == This class offers methods useful to deal with the Windows Registry without using .NET. == Terminology == To understand the names of the methods you need to understand the terminology. If you find the terminology strange: so do I, but it was invented by Microsoft and got widely accepted. That is the reason why I decided to go for it: it makes it easier to understand others while talking about the Windows Registry. In this picture: [[attachment:EditReg.jpg|{{attachment:EditReg.jpg|attachment:EditReg.jpg}}]] you can see that this string is visible in the top of the window: {{{HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Dyalog\Dyalog APL/W 12.0 Unicode\AutoComplete}}} === HKEY_CURRENT_USER === This is called a "Main key". There is a particular number of pre-defined main keys available you can choose from. For the most important one from an application programmers view there is also a shortcut available: Instead of '''HKEY_CURRENT_USER''' you can use '''HKCU'''. === SOFTWARE\Dyalog\Dyalog APL/W 12.0 Unicode === This is called a '''subkey'''. On the right side you see a list. The entries in this list are called "value". '''!CancelKey1''' is there a value. The actual data saved under this value is called "data". == Shared Methods == {{{ Close CopyTree Copyright DeleteSubKey DeleteSubKeyTree DeleteValue DoesKeyExist DoesValueExist GetAllSubKeyNames GetAllValueNames GetAllValues GetErrorAsStringFrom GetString GetTree GetTreeWithValues GetTypeAsStringFrom GetValue History KeyInfo OpenAndCreateKey OpenKey PutBinary PutString PutValue Version }}} == Restrictions == Note the following restrictions: * `PutValue` supports DWORDs (REG_DWORD) * `PutBinary` supports REG_BINARY * `PutString` and `GetString` support strings (REG_SZ), nested strings (REG_MULTI_SZ) and expanded strings (REG_EXPAND_SZ) * `GetValue` supports all data types. Other data types can be requested via `GetValue`; however, writing them is not supported. == Project Page == For bug reports, future enhancements and a full version history see WinReg/ProjectPage == Version Information == ||Original author: ||KaiJaeger || ||Responsible: ||KaiJaeger || ||Email: || kai@aplteam.com || ||Current state: ||2.2.0 || == Download == You have two options: you can either download the script for usage: [[http://aplwiki.com/WinReg?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=WinReg.ZIP|Download WinReg script right now]] or get the whole thing from the AplWikiRepository, including the development workspace and the script and maybe more for any development or for running the test cases: {{{ svn list svn://aplteam.com/os/dyalog/WinReg/tags }}} ---- CategoryAplTree |
