Detailed Description

Structure representing a configuration section.

Unlike the old configuration file setup, configuration files are broken up into sections, similar to an INI file. These can be used to group similar settings

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

BlamConfigurationSection()

BlamConfigurationSection::BlamConfigurationSection	(	std::string	_name,
		std::string	_filename
	)

Prepares a new configuration section.

Parameters

_name	- The name of the configuration section.
_filename	- The filename that this section belongs to.

~BlamConfigurationSection()

BlamConfigurationSection::~BlamConfigurationSection

(

)

Destructor.

Deletes any and all settings stored within the section.

Member Function Documentation

AddNewDefaultSetting()

void BlamConfigurationSection::AddNewDefaultSetting

(

BlamConfigurationSetting *

new_setting

)

Adds a new default configuration setting to the section.

Parameters

new_setting

- Pointer to the new default setting to add to this section.

Here is the call graph for this function:

Here is the caller graph for this function:

AddNewSetting()

void BlamConfigurationSection::AddNewSetting

(

BlamConfigurationSetting *

new_setting

)

Adds a new configuration setting to the section.

Parameters

new_setting

- Pointer to the new setting to add to this section.

Here is the caller graph for this function:

GetBool()

bool * BlamConfigurationSection::GetBool

(

std::string

option

)

Retrieves a configuration setting as a bool.

Parameters

option

- The option to retrieve.

Returns

Pointer to the setting value if it exists, otherwise returns nullptr. If the setting exists but cannot be interpreted as a bool, then will also return nullptr.

Here is the call graph for this function:

Here is the caller graph for this function:

GetColor()

BlamColor * BlamConfigurationSection::GetColor

(

std::string

option

)

Retrieves a configuration setting as a color.

Parameters

option

- The option to retrieve.

Returns

Pointer to the setting value if it exists, otherwise returns nullptr. If the setting exists but cannot be interpreted as a color, then will also return nullptr.

Here is the call graph for this function:

Here is the caller graph for this function:

GetDisplayNameString()

std::string BlamConfigurationSection::GetDisplayNameString

(

)

Generates a display name for the configuration section for use in a user-friendly settings dialog.

This will attempt to check the string database for a matching configuration string entry. By default, these are stored in config_strings.xml, though the specific file is largely irrelevant. The format for a display name string is as follows:

config_{0}_section_{1}_name

{0} represents the file name of the configuration file, with no extension or other path information. {1} represents the section ID as it appears in the configuration file.

If no matching string is found, then this will simply return the ID of the section.

Returns

A string representing the display name for the section.

Here is the call graph for this function:

GetFloat()

float * BlamConfigurationSection::GetFloat

(

std::string

option

)

Retrieves a configuration setting as a float.

Parameters

option

- The option to retrieve.

Returns

Pointer to the setting value if it exists, otherwise returns nullptr. If the setting exists but cannot be interpreted as a float, then will also return nullptr.

Here is the call graph for this function:

Here is the caller graph for this function:

GetInt()

int * BlamConfigurationSection::GetInt

(

std::string

option

)

Retrieves a configuration setting as an int.

Parameters

option

- The option to retrieve.

Returns

Pointer to the setting value if it exists, otherwise returns nullptr. If the setting exists but cannot be interpreted as an int, then will also return nullptr.

Here is the call graph for this function:

Here is the caller graph for this function:

GetString()

std::string * BlamConfigurationSection::GetString

(

std::string

option

)

Retrieves a configuration setting as a string.

Parameters

option

- The option to retrieve.

Returns

Pointer to the setting value if it exists, otherwise returns nullptr. If the setting exists but is not listed as a string, then will also return nullptr.

Here is the call graph for this function:

Here is the caller graph for this function:

HasOption()

bool BlamConfigurationSection::HasOption

(

std::string

)

Checks whether or not a given configuration setting exists in this section.

Parameters

option

- The setting to look for.

Returns

true if the option exists, otherwise returns false.
