Name of configuration file

pthread_mutex_t mutex

Mutex to protect internal structures.

CfgVariables cfgVariables

Array of pairs of name and value.

methods

Err Load()

Loads settings from file.

Err PrintVar(CfgVariable *var)

Prints variable var to stdout.

methods

ConfigFile(string fileName)

Opens and reads config from file.

~ConfigFile()

Destructor

string GetValue(string name)

Returns value of variable called "name".

Err Reload()

Reloads settings from file.

void PrintAll()

prints all variables to stdout.

ConfigFile::ConfigFile(string name)

Config file constructor. Creates a mutex for protecting the STL map container. Reads configuration from specified file.

Parameters:

name - Name of the file that contains configuration data.

string ConfigFile::GetValue(string name)

Returns value asociated vith name Looks the key in STL map container and returns the associated value, that was specified in configuration file like this:

key1 value1
key2 value2

Returns:

String that is associated with the specified key.

Parameters:

name - String key that we want to look up in configuration file.

Load()

Err ConfigFile::Load()

Loads settings from config file. Opens the file with O_SHLOCK so that noone can modify the file as it is read. The configuration file is read into memory - it is really small and has to be loaded anyway. And then the strings are parsed and stored in a STL map container as pairs key -> value.

Returns:

OK if success else KO

ReLoad()

void ConfigFile::PrintAll()

Lists all variables to stdout. Prints all the pairs key -> value from STL map to stdout. Just for debugging purposes.

Load()

Err ConfigFile::Reload()

Reloads settings from config file. Calls method Load that once more processes the configuration file.

Returns:

OK if success else KO.

ConfigFile::~ConfigFile()

Config file destructor. Destroys mutex that was used to protect access to STL map container.
