Abstract base class for configuration readers for SectionBasedConfiguration.
This class presents configuration contents as key-value pairs grouped into sections. This class does not try to make sense of section/key names.
The default implementation is InifileReader, but other variants (e.g. those that read the configuration from a database) can also be implemented.
| virtual void cConfigurationReader::dump | ( | ) | const [pure virtual] |
Prints the configuration to the standard output.
This can be useful for tracking down problems.
| virtual const char* cConfigurationReader::getDefaultBaseDirectory | ( | ) | const [pure virtual] |
Returns the directory defaulted filenames should be understood to be relative to.
For example, if the name of the output vector file is not explicitly configured, it defaults to "omnetpp.vec" in the default base directory.
| virtual const KeyValue& cConfigurationReader::getEntry | ( | int | sectionId, | |
| int | entryId | |||
| ) | const [pure virtual] |
Returns the given entry in the in the given section.
sectionId should be in 0..getNumSections()-1. The lifetime of the returned entry may be limited, so references to entries should not be cached.
| virtual const char* cConfigurationReader::getFileName | ( | ) | const [pure virtual] |
Returns the name of the configuration file.
Returns NULL if this object is not using a configuration file.
| virtual int cConfigurationReader::getNumEntries | ( | int | sectionId | ) | const [pure virtual] |
Returns the number of entries in the given section.
sectionId should be in 0..getNumSections()-1.
| virtual const char* cConfigurationReader::getSectionName | ( | int | sectionId | ) | const [pure virtual] |
Returns the name of the given section.
sectionId should be in 0..getNumSections()-1.
| virtual void cConfigurationReader::initializeFrom | ( | cConfiguration * | bootConfig | ) | [pure virtual] |
Initializes the object from a "boot-time" configuration (omnetpp.ini).
For example, if a particular cConfigurationReader class uses a database as data source, it may take the connection parameters from the "boot-time" configuration.
