将变量保存到vb.net中的文本文件

时间:2014-03-18 21:02:38

标签: vb.net

正如标题所说,我想将变量保存在.txt文件或类似内容中。 (不是XML)我试过My.Settings,我想要一个更便携的解决方案。

格式是这样的:

[config]<br>
StartPath=C:\Users<br>
FormColour=Black

从你的问题看,你看起来正在考虑在旧的Windows版本中看起来像 .ini 文件的那种配置(或类似)文件。这样的文件有一个或多个[sections],每个name=value对有多个{{1}}对。如果是这种情况,请看这里: Reading/writing an INI file

如果您打算存储的数据比您在示例中显示的简单平面结构更适合多级结构,并且您不喜欢XML,那么您可以考虑例如JSON(可用{{ 3}}从.NET版本3.5开始)或natively。他们的库可以免费用于.NET。

对于便携式解决方案,您可以使用我的INI File Manager,这非常容易且安全。

以下是一些使用示例:

' Set the initialization file path.
'INIFileManager.FilePath = IO.Path.Combine(Application.StartupPath, "Config.ini")

' Create the initialization file.
'INIFileManager.File.Create()

' Check that the initialization file exist.
'MsgBox(INIFileManager.File.Exist)

' Writes a new entire initialization file with the specified text content.
'INIFileManager.File.Write(New List(Of String) From {"[Section Name 1]"})

' Set an existing value or append it at the enf of the initialization file.
'INIFileManager.Key.Set("KeyName1", "Value1")

' Set an existing value on a specific section or append them at the enf of the initialization file.
'INIFileManager.Key.Set("KeyName2", "Value2", "[Section Name 2]")

' Gets the value of the specified Key name,
'MsgBox(INIFileManager.Key.Get("KeyName1"))

' Gets the value of the specified Key name on the specified Section.
'MsgBox(INIFileManager.Key.Get("KeyName2", , "[Section Name 2]"))

' Gets the value of the specified Key name and returns a default value if the key name is not found.
'MsgBox(INIFileManager.Key.Get("KeyName0", "I'm a default value"))

' Gets the value of the specified Key name, and assign it to a control property.
'CheckBox1.Checked = CType(INIFileManager.Key.Get("KeyName1"), Boolean)

' Checks whether a Key exists.
'MsgBox(INIFileManager.Key.Exist("KeyName1"))

' Checks whether a Key exists on a specific section.
'MsgBox(INIFileManager.Key.Exist("KeyName2", "[First Section]"))

' Remove a key name.
'INIFileManager.Key.Remove("KeyName1")

' Remove a key name on the specified Section.
'INIFileManager.Key.Remove("KeyName2", "[Section Name 2]")

' Add a new section.
'INIFileManager.Section.Add("[Section Name 3]")

' Get the contents of a specific section.
'MsgBox(String.Join(Environment.NewLine, INIFileManager.Section.Get("[Section Name 1]")))

' Remove an existing section.
'INIFileManager.Section.Remove("[Section Name 2]")

'' Checks that the initialization file contains at least one section.
'MsgBox(INIFileManager.Section.Has())

'' Sort the initialization file (And remove empty lines).
'INIFileManager.File.Sort(True)

'' Gets the initialization file section names.
'MsgBox(String.Join(", ", INIFileManager.Section.GetNames()))

'' Gets the initialization file content.
'MsgBox(String.Join(Environment.NewLine, INIFileManager.File.Get()))

'' Delete the initialization file from disk.
'INIFileManager.File.Delete()

我建议使用app.config 。使用ConfigurationManager类,您可以轻松地读取/写入多个部分,几乎没有代码。 INI作为配置手段正在消失,XML可能会停留一段时间,我会坚持认为。我最近写了一篇文章,显示了简单的用法:

为方便起见,此处包含相关部分:

Imports System.Configuration
Imports System.Reflection

Public Class AppConfig

  Private _config As Configuration
  Private _settings As AppSettingsSection 
  Public Function GetProperty(propertyName As String) As String
    Return _settings.Settings.Item(propertyName).Value
  End Function
  Public Sub SetProperty(propertyName As String, propertyValue As String)
    _settings.Settings.Item(propertyName).Value = propertyValue
  End Sub 
  Public Sub New()
    _config = ConfigurationManager.OpenExeConfiguration(
                                         Assembly.GetEntryAssembly().Location)
    _settings = _config.AppSettings
  End Sub

  Protected Overrides Sub Finalize()
    MyBase.Finalize()
    _config.Save(ConfigurationSaveMode.Modified)
  End Sub

End Class

用法:

Dim _appConfig As New AppConfig
_appConfig.SetProperty(propertyName, propertyValue)
_appConfig.GetProperty(propertyName)

您需要扩展上述类以支持多个部分。
