Class IniLikeGroup

This class represents the group (section) of key-value entries in the ini-like file. Instances of this class can be created only in the context of IniLikeFile or its derivatives. Values are stored in the escaped form, but the interface allows to set and get values in both escaped and unescaped forms.

Constructors

Methods

Name	Description
addCommentAfter	Add comment after some node.
addCommentBefore	Add comment before some node.
appendComment	Add comment line into the group.
appendValue	Add key-value entry without diret association of the value with the key. Can be used to add duplicates.
byIniLine
byKeyValue	Iterate by Key-Value pairs. Values are left in escaped form.
byNode	Iterate over nodes of internal list.
contains	Check if the group contains a value associated with the key.
emptyByKeyValue	Empty range of the same type as byKeyValue. Can be used in derived classes if it's needed to have an empty range.
escapedValue	Get value by key in escaped form.
escapedValue	Perform locale matching lookup as described in Localized values for keys.
getNode	Get internal list node for key.
groupName	Get name of this group.
moveLineAfter	Move line after other line in the group.
moveLineBefore	Move line before other line in the group.
moveLineToBack	Move line to the end of group.
moveLineToFront	Move line to the start of group.
prependComment	Add comment line at the start of group (after group header, before any key-value pairs).
removeEntry	Removes entry by key. Do nothing if no value associated with key found.
removeEntry	ditto, but remove entry by localized key.
removeEntry	ditto, but remove entry by node.
setEscapedValue	Set value associated with key.
setEscapedValue	Set value associated with key and locale.
setUnescapedValue	Set value by key. The value is considered to be in the unescaped form.
setUnescapedValue	ditto, localized version
unescapedValue	Get value by key.
validateKey	Validate key before setting value to key for this group and throw exception if not valid. Can be reimplemented in derived classes.
validateValue	Validate value for key before setting value to key for this group and throw exception if not valid. Can be reimplemented in derived classes. The key is provided because you may want to implement specific checks depending on the key name.
