PxConfigReadLLong(), PxConfigReadLLongCx()

Read a long integer parameter from a configuration file

Synopsis:

#include <photon/PxProto.h>

int PxConfigReadLLong( const char *section,
                       const char *entry,
                       long long dflt,
                       long long *value );

int PxConfigReadLLongCx( PxCfgContext_t *cx,
                         const char *section,
                         const char *entry,
                         long long dflt,
                         long long *value );

Arguments:

cx

PxConfigReadLLongCx() only. The configuration file handle for the file you want to read from. This handle is returned by PxConfigOpenCx().

section

The section to read a value from.
If section is NULL, the function reads the value from entry in the current section. If section is a valid section name, it becomes the current section.

entry

The entry to read the value from.

dflt

The default to store in value if the specified section or entry don't exist, or if the entry value is not a valid long long (see below).

value

A pointer to a long long where the function stores the value it reads.

Library:

phexlib

Description:

These functions read a long long parameter from the specified section and entry of a configuration file and stores it in *value.

The value can be signed. The characters after the sign determine the base:

PxConfigReadLLong() reads from the currently open configuration file opened by PxConfigOpen(), while PxConfigReadLLongCx() reads from the configuration file indicated by cx.

Returns:

Pt_TRUE if the required section/entry exists and the given value is valid, otherwise Pt_FALSE.

Classification:

Photon
