It is intended for user preferences; not configuration of something like Apache, or arbitrary data storage.not intended to be used as a generic data storage."
That does not mean it can't be used for this, but why not save it in a plain text file or separate ini file on the SD card? It would at least work around the issue.  |
Hi Gertjan, I am 'new' to linux programming, so I just copied some behaviour of existing DR-apps, thanks for pointing this out to me. I found a new way around the problem, but will keep this in the back of my mind. Are there some helper functions to handle ini-files (I will probably find them if I search long enough, but I am hoping you knowledge can help me quicker :-) ?
