y_ini - check if entry exists - Brooks1 - 07.07.2016

I have the a file which contains:

Name = Hello
Kills = 0

How to check with Y_INI if the entry "Name" exists in the file?

No, I don't want to check if the file exists. I want to check inside the file if exists "Name" or "Kills" or etc.

Check for INI_GetEntryName, it should exist in YSI 4 as well.

Can you give me example for INI_GetEntryName how works, because I checked on internet and I can't understand the parameters: INI_GetEntryName(source[], dest[], &i)

I looked at the code in github and the function has been removed in the YSI 4 version. That's the way it was used in the older version:

PHP код:



bool:INI_GetEntryName(source[], dest[], &i)

{

    new

        j;

    while (source[j] && source[j] <= ' ') j++;

    i = j;

    while (source[i] > ' ' && source[i] != '=') i++;

    if (i == j) return false;

    i -= j;

    memcpy(dest, source, j, i * 4, MAX_INI_ENTRY_NAME);

    dest[i] = '\0';

    return true;

}

PHP код:



EntryNameExists(const file_name[], const entry_name[])

{

    new File: f = fopen(file_name, io_read);

    

    if (!f) return 0;

    

    new line[MAX_INI_ENTRY_NAME], stringIdent[MAX_INI_ENTRY_NAME], pos, comment;

    

    while (fread(f, line))

    {

        StripNL(line);

        

        if (!line[0]) continue;

        

        comment = chrfind(';', line);

        

        if (comment != -1) line[comment] = '\0';

        if (INI_GetEntryName(line, stringIdent, pos) && !strcmp(entry_name, stringIdent)) return fclose(f), 1;

    }

    return fclose(f), 0;

}

You have to read every line of the file and check if the entry returned is the one you want. An example:

pawn Код:

if (!EntryNameExists("some_file.ini", "some_entry")) print("\"some_entry\" does not exist in the INI file.");

Re: y_ini - check if entry exists - Stinged - 07.07.2016

Why do all that when you can just do this?

Код:

new File: file = fopen("file.ini", io_read);
if (!file) return 1;

new str[128], bool: found;
while (fread(file, str))
{
    if (strcmp(str, "entry =", false, LENGTH OF THE ENTRY + 2 (7 here) ))
        continue;
    found = true;
}
fclose(file);

// Use the found variable to see if it exists or not.
