Interaktionen mit der Registry sind ja ständig erforderlich. Es gibt dafür auch ein Modul "winregistry" (Dokumentation).
Ich habe damit ergänzend mein Modul "registry" mit folgenden Funktionen erstellt:
- AppPathGet
Returns the installation path of an passed application
- VolatileEnvironmentGet
Returns a tuple with all volatile environment values
- EnvironmentGet
Returns the value of a passed environment name
- EnvironmentValueNamesGet
Returns a list with all environment names
- CountKeyValues
Returns the number of key-value pairs that are associated with the specified
registry key. Does not count default key-value pair.
- ListNameValuePairs
Fills a table with all name-value-pairs for a passed registry key.
The table to receive the values must passed too.
- RegistryGetValueType
Gets the type of the value for a passed registry key.
Die Funktion "RegistryGetValueType" gefällt mir aber nicht so richtig, weil sie auf der Basis von Try&Error arbeitet, also eher eine Notlösung darstellt. Dazu hatte ich auch meine bisher einzige Anfrage im Nim-Forum erstellt - leider ohne Resonanz.
Vielleicht habt ihr ja eine Idee, wie man das etwas eleganter gestalten kann.
Code

# finally:
# close(h)
