TCustomJSONPropStorage.DoWriteString procedure

Member of TCustomJSONPropStoragepublicIn unit JSONPropStorage

Performs actions needed to write the specified Section and Ident to the JSON storage mechanism as a String type.

Declaration

pascal
procedure DoWriteString(const Section: string; const Ident: string; 
 const Value: string); override

Arguments

Section

Name for the section where the value is stored.

Ident

Name for the identifier where the value is stored.

Value

String value stored in the method.

Description

DoWriteString is an overridden method used to implement the WriteString method in the TCustomPropertyStorage ancestor. DoWriteString ensures that Value is converted from the UTF-8 encoding used in the argument to the UTF-16 encoding (UnicodeString) used in JSONConf (TJSONConfig).

The Value argument is stored using the identifiers in the Section and Ident parameters. They are converted from the their representation as dotted-LCL component names and properties to the '/'- delimited XPATH-like notation. For example: 

'TApplication', 'Form1.Width' => 'TApplication/Form1/Width'
Please note that any component which does not have an explicit value in its Name property defaults to the ClassName for the component, like 'TApplication'.

Use active to enable or disable read and write operations to the JSON property storage mechanism.
