The ACE configuration API provides a portable abstraction for program configuration similar to the Microsoft Windows registry. The API supports a tree based hierarchy of configuration sections. Each section contains other sections or values. Values may contain string, unsigned integer and binary data.

Note

These classes are not thread safe, if multiple threads use these classes, you are responsible for serializing access.

For examples of using this class, see:

1. The test code in ACE_wrappers/test
2. wxConfigViewer, a Windows like Registry Editor for ACE_Configuration
3. TAO's IFR, it makes extensive use of ACE_Configuration

Todo:

Templatize this class with an ACE_LOCK to provide thread safety
