| <<TableOfContents>> == Overview == This class offers a limited range of methods useful to read, write and delete values from the Windows Registry without using .NET. It uses the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Script_Host|Windows Scripting Host]]. For an all-singing-all-dancing class see [[WinReg]] which is much more powerful. However, `WinReg` is a complex and large class. If `WinRegSimple` offers what you need stick with it. == 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 therefore defines the standard. That is the reason why I decided to go for it: it makes it easier to understand the Microsoft documentation but also to understand others while talking about the Windows Registry. In this picture: [[attachment:EditReg.jpg|{{attachment:EditReg.jpg|attachment:EditReg.jpg}}]] you can see this string: {{{HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Dyalog\Dyalog APL/W 12.0 Unicode\AutoComplete}}} at the top of the window. === HKEY_CURRENT_USER === This is called a "Main key". There are a number of pre-defined main keys available you can choose from. 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 '''sub key'''. On the right side you see a list. The entries in this list are called "values". Therefore '''!CancelKey1''' is a value. Note that the '''''names''''' are called values; the actual data saved under a value is called "data". == Shared Methods == {{{ Read Write Delete }}} == Restrictions == The `Write` method supports just two data types: REG_SZ and REG_DWORD. == Project Page == For bug reports, future enhancements and a full version history see WinRegSimple/ProjectPage == Version Information == ||Original author: ||KaiJaeger || ||Responsible: ||KaiJaeger || ||Email: || kai@aplteam.com || <<Include(APLTreeDownloads)>> ---- CategoryAplTree |
