Navigation: Actions > Files > Write INI Action |
|
This action creates a step to create, update, or delete values in an INI file. The Read INI action can be used to read values from an INI file.
Filename: Name of the INI file to update (required). Any non-existent subdirectories will be created before creating the file. If no path is specified, the file will be created/updated in the Windows folder (%WINDIR% system macro).
Section: Section of the file to update (required).
Value name: Value name to create or delete (optional). If the value name is empty, the entire section will be deleted if delete is checked.
Delete the value: Deletes the value if checked, otherwise creates/updates the value.
Value data: The string to set the given value to (optional).
Ensure file is not read-only: Removes the read-only attribute of the file before overwriting or appending.
Fail step if file, section, or value not found: If checked and the file, section, or value doesn't exist, the step will fail. If unchecked, the file, section, and/or value will be created if not found.
Notes:
• | Bracket characters [ and ] and the percent sign character % within step fields have special meaning in a step field. |
• | By default, this action is not displayed (existing steps will still be displayed in the Step panes and will build normally). To show all hidden actions, right-click in the Actions pane and choose Show Hidden. |
