Determine the INI File Value in custom Section is empty


Recommended Posts

Look in the help file for the INI functions specifically INIRead and INIWrite.

If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.

I hereby grant any person the right to use any code I post, that I am the original author of, on the autoitscript.com forums, unless I've specifically stated otherwise in the code or the thread post. If you do use my code all I ask, as a courtesy, is to make note of where you got it from.

Something like this

;If not FileExists(@ScriptDir & "\settings.ini") Then
IniWrite(@ScriptDir & "\settings.ini", "options", "Somekey", "")
;Endif
Global $iniset1 = IniRead(@ScriptDir & "\settings.ini", "options", "Somekey", "")

consolewrite("Hello Computer  " & $iniset1 & @CRLF)

If $iniset1 = "" then
IniWrite(@ScriptDir & "\settings.ini", "options", "Somekey", "Boy")
Endif

Global $iniset2 = IniRead(@ScriptDir & "\settings.ini", "options", "Somekey", "Boy")
consolewrite("Hello Computer  " & $iniset2 & @CRLF)

You should just add "Boy" to the iniread so if they key is not there it always defaults to the key

Global $iniset1 = IniRead(@ScriptDir & "\settings.ini", "options", "Somekey", "")

like this

Global $iniset1 = IniRead(@ScriptDir & "\settings.ini", "options", "Somekey", "boy")

 

I added the if not fileexists what created the file is the user deleted it
