Function Documentation

◆ read()

std::map< std::string, std::string > zypp::base::sysconfig::read ( const Pathname _path)

Read sysconfig file path_r and return (key,valye) pairs.

Definition at line 34 of file sysconfig.cc.

◆ write()

bool zypp::base::sysconfig::write ( const Pathname path_r,
const std::string &  key_r,
const std::string &  val_r,
const std::string &  newcomment_r = std::string() 
)

Add or change a value in sysconfig file path_r.

If key_r already exists, only the val_r is changed accordingly.

In case key_r is not yet present in the file, a new entry may be created at the end of the file, using the lines in newcomment_r as comment block. If newcomment_r is not provided or empty, a new value is not created and false is returned.

Returns
TRUE if an entry was changed or created.
Exceptions
Exceptionif path_r can not be read or written.
Note
val_r is written as it is. The caller is responsible for escaping and enclosing in '"', in case this is needed (
See also
writeStringVal and str::escape).
Note
Lines in newcomment_r which do not already start with a '#', are prefixes with "# ".
## Type: string
## Default: ""

KEY="value"

◆ writeStringVal()

bool zypp::base::sysconfig::writeStringVal ( const Pathname path_r,
const std::string &  key_r,
const std::string &  val_r,
const std::string &  newcomment_r = std::string() 
)

Convenience to add or change a string-value in sysconfig file path_r.

val_r is expected to be a plain string value, so it is propery escaped and enclosed in double quotes before it is written to the sysconfig file path_r.
