Syntax:

 

@INIREAD(<section name>,<key name> , <default>)

 

Description:

 

This function returns a string containing the value of <key name> in the <section name> section of the configuration file that was specified in the preceding INIFILE OPEN command. The returned string is empty if the section or key do not exist, unless the optional <default> value has been supplied. Note that the <default> value is not returned if the section and key name do exist, but the value is null.

[VDS6] If <key name> is null then the function returns a carriage-return delimited string containing all the values in <section name>. If <section name> is also null then the function returns a carriage-return delimited list of section names. The results can be assigned to a string list for easy processing of the individual values.

OK:

Unchanged.

 

Example:
