Summary	0000019: configuration language
Description	We should have some kind of language to describe configuration values.
Additional Information	Some code. typedef enum { /* Normal string, any string could be whatever argument should be NULL / XMMS_CONFIG_TYPE_STRING, / Normal int argument should be NULL / XMMS_CONFIG_TYPE_INT, / Could be a string in the list argument should be a GList* with possible values./ XMMS_CONFIG_TYPE_STRING_LIST, / Could be a INT in the list argument should be a GList* with int values (GINT_TO_POINTER)/ XMMS_CONFIG_TYPE_INT_LIST, / Could be any int between the numbers argument should be a string like "0-100" / XMMS_CONFIG_TYPE_INT_RANGE, / A file path argument should be a glob string like "mp3" / XMMS_CONFIG_TYPE_PATH_FILE, /* A directory path argument should be NULL / XMMS_CONFIG_TYPE_PATH_DIR, / A hostname or IP argument should be NULL / XMMS_CONFIG_TYPE_HOST, } xmms_config_types_t; gboolean xmms_config_value_set_info (xmms_config_value_t , xmms_config_types_t, void argument, gchar documentation); /* Example 1: a normal string / xmms_config_value_set_info (val, XMMS_CONFIG_TYPE_STRING, NULL, "This string will format the HTTP request"); / Example 2: a list of different strings / GList outputs = NULL; outputs = g_list_append (outputs, "oss"); outputs = g_list_append (outputs, "also"); xmms_config_value_set_info (val, XMMS_CONFIG_TYPE_STRING_LIST, (void ) outputs, "Selects a output-plugin to use."); / Example 3: a group / xmms_config_value_group_t group; group = xmms_config_value_group_new (config, "Core parameters"); xmms_config_value_group_add (group, value1); xmms_config_value_group_add (group, value2); /* clientside / xmmsc_result_t res; res = xmmsc_config_info_get (connection); ... x_list_t apan = xmmsc_result_get_config_info (res); for (n = apan; n; n = x_list_next (n)) { xmmsc_config_info_t info = n->data; switch (info->type) { case XMMS_CONFIG_TYPE_STRING_LIST: { x_list_t strs = info->list; / Not real GTK code / GtkWidget selection = gtk_selection_new ("korv"); for (l = strs; l; l = x_list_next (l)) { gtk_selection_add_value (l->data); if (g_strcacecmp (l->data, info->current_value.str) == 0) { gtk_selection_select (l->data); } } gtk_widget_show (selection); } break; case XMMS_CONFIG_TYPE_INT_RANGE: ... break; } }
