Я написал приложение, которое читает INI-файл и записывает значения из этого INI-файла в TextBoxes.Прочитать несколько заголовков INI

Это модуль, который я использую для чтения (и записи) значения файла INI:

Module modINI 
Private Declare Unicode Function WritePrivateProfileString Lib "kernel32" _ 
Alias "WritePrivateProfileStringW" (ByVal lpApplicationName As String, _ 
ByVal lpKeyName As String, ByVal lpString As String, _ 
ByVal lpFileName As String) As Int32 

Private Declare Unicode Function GetPrivateProfileString Lib "kernel32" _ 
Alias "GetPrivateProfileStringW" (ByVal lpApplicationName As String, _ 
ByVal lpKeyName As String, ByVal lpDefault As String, _ 
ByVal lpReturnedString As String, ByVal nSize As Int32, _ 
ByVal lpFileName As String) As Int32 

Public Sub writeIni(ByVal iniFileName As String, ByVal Section As String, ByVal ParamName As String, ByVal ParamVal As String) 
    Dim Result As Integer = WritePrivateProfileString(Section, ParamName, ParamVal, iniFileName) 
End Sub 

Public Function ReadIni(ByVal IniFileName As String, ByVal Section As String, ByVal ParamName As String, ByVal ParamDefault As String) As String 
    Dim ParamVal As String = Space$(1024) 
    Dim LenParamVal As Long = GetPrivateProfileString(Section, ParamName, ParamDefault, ParamVal, Len(ParamVal), IniFileName) 
    ReadIni = Left$(ParamVal, LenParamVal) 
End Function End Module 

. , Для чтения значения из файла INI я использую:

wAccessDeniedMsg.Text = ReadIni(File, BuildOptions, AccessDeniedMsg, "") 

Теперь я хочу, чтобы прочитать заголовки из файла INI и записать его в ListBox.

Например: INI-файл содержит: [Calc.exe] в качестве заголовка. то должен отображаться список: Calc.exe Я хочу сохранить значения заголовка в переменной.

Я использую ListBox1.Items.Add(wSourceShort) добавить переменную (в этом примере wSourceShort к Listbox, но мне нужно найти способ, чтобы прочитать заголовки из файла INI и записать его в переменную.

Любые идеи, как я могу прочитать заголовок из файла INI и использовать его в качестве переменной

Существует старая функция WinAPI, чтобы получить Раздел имен:

<DllImport("kernel32.dll")> 
Shared Function GetPrivateProfileSectionNames(
     ByVal lpszReturnBuffer As IntPtr, 
     ByVal nSize As Integer, ByVal lpFileName As String) As Integer 

End Function 

для того, чтобы использовать те, которые вы размещены, вы должны иметь имена (то, что вы называете заголовками), поэтому вы повторно союзник должен уже иметь их.

Hi Plutonix, у меня нет названия заголовков. Могу ли я использовать код еще? – RalJans

+1 отлично! Я никогда не думал, что может существовать функция API для чтения разделов. – ElektroStudios

+1

РазделNames - это то, что вы называете заголовками. Есть первый аргумент для ваших функций Read/WriteINI. Поскольку вам нужно имя SECTION, чтобы получить информацию о товаре, вы можете просто отправить это в список. (его не мой код, его объявление kernel32) @ElektroStudios, это просто получает ИМЯ разделов, но есть один, чтобы получить разделы 'GetPrivateProfileSection', но вы должны знать это имя и затем анализировать строку, чтобы получить значения. – Plutonix

Вот мой подход.

Я сделал это без каких-либо выводов, вызывающих раздражающие функции API INI.

Он может управлять INI с секциями или без них.
