INI class in WTS - Bug ?
Posted: Fri Jan 05, 2007 12:26 AM

In Windows Terminal Service:

INI oIni FILE GetWinDir()+"\MyIni.ini"
  GET cEntry SECTION "Section" ENTRY "Entry" OF oIni DEFAULT "AAA"
ENDINI

GetWinDir() returns "c:\document and settings\administrator\windows", so MyIni.ini is created here (as it's not already existant). So far so good.

The problem is that IF c:\windows\MyIni.ini already exists, the c:\document and settings\administrator\windows\MyIni.ini file takes the defaults from c:\windows\MyIni.ini instead of the ones coded in the program ("AAA").

Is this supposed to work this way or is it a bug ?

Davide

Davide,

It looks as a Windows behavior. If you review the class and the related winapi C file, you will see we don't do anything related

yes, I've seen them. No problem once you know it

It took some time to me before realizing why my defaults were overwritten. Maybe you could put a note in the doc, so that other users in future will be aware of this behaviour.
Thanks,
Davide.
