Build 281.4 Update | Android INI

[KDT91]

Hello all,

Sorry if this is a stupid question, still new to this stuff. In the change log for this update, it seems like the way the INI file works has changed. Can I just clarify, does this mean users are able to access the INI file now even if their phone/tablet isn't rooted?

- INI: a new lib was implemented to write and read INI files as they are in Windows, Linux, etc.. so from now on, the INI file is a file which can be copied, moved and deleted, the information is not stored in the preferences anymore, the speed was increased dramatically, now 1300 items are read in less than half of second. New rules: if the ini does not exist on the device but is embedded in the application, it will be read from the application. If it exists in the device, this one will be read. Users can delete it to reset it for example if necessary when they update the application. Also you can save it in the data folder or any folder (to do so, pass the full pathname to Set current file).

Yes is a text file like it is in windows, but to be able to see the file you need to save in externalstorage so you can see it in non rooted devices.
