使用Properties类带来的好处

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script> Monday, February 24 2003 3:18 PM 许多开发者抱怨C＋＋不能像Java那样绑定Properties类。Java的Properties类内在包含一个文件，该文件用来读写Properties类中的属性，可以写成这样形式：<名字>＝<数值>（例如：ConnectToInternet＝Use IE）。 使用Properties类的好处就是你可以很轻松的理解和修改它们。在本文的第一部分中，你将看到我们也可以在C＋＋中使用Properties类。本文的第二部分将向你演示通过使用操作符>>和<<把数据保存到Properties类中是多么的容易。 现在介绍C＋＋ Properties文件的结构。该文件的每一行可以是下面三种情况中的某一种： 空行（认为它是注释中的一部分） 以‘＃’ 开始的注释行 ‘<名字>＝<数值>’行，这是给一个属性赋值的语句 现在让我们再看看Properties类的的特点： 注释是持久性的（当保存Properties类时，它们不会丢失掉）。注意每一个注释都属于某个属性。在‘<名字>＝<数值>’行上的注释行属于该‘<名字>’属性。 当保存Properties类后，属性仍然保留自己的位置。 它对各种字符类型都有效：char、wchar_t等等 Properties类的使用相当简单： save()：保存属性 has_property(strPropertyName)：如果类中有该属性则返回‘真’ string get_property(strPropertyName)：返回指定的属性（如果指定属性不存在，则抛出例外） set_property(strPropertyName, strPropertyValue)：设置给定属性 stringget_property_comment( strPropertyName)：返回属于指定属性的注释（如果指定属性的注释不存在，则抛出例外） set_property_comment(strPropertyName, strPropertyComment)：设置指定属性的注释（如果指定属性的注释不存在，则抛出例外） 下面是file_reader_writer类以及相应例子的代码。运行它之后，请查看properties.txt文件。看看访问和修改它是多么容易的一件事。 #include exception> #include string> #include sstream> #include map> #include vector> #include fstream> #include algorithm> #include functional> //允许字符串转化 template< class FromCharType, class ToCharType> inline std::basic_string< ToCharType> convert_string( const std::basic_string< FromCharType> & strSource) { std::basic_string< ToCharType> strDest;
