Re: Using Glib::KeyFile

["Tadej BorovÅak" <tadeboro gmail com>]

Hi.

GKeyFile does not automatically updates file on a disk. When you open
your file with "load_from_file" method, file is parsed and stored in
memory as a structure. And when you edit you key file, you are
actually editing your memory copy of it. To write changes to your
file, you need to "dump" your memory file into string with to_data
method and then save the resulting ustring to file.
