Static and dynamic files [message #1403773]

Hello everybody,

I'm writing a plugin that uses configuration files (static files) and dynamic files (properties files). These are used to change the value of certain paths that use within the plugin. I was wondering what is the best way to handle both types of files. Create a package and put all the files inside it? It can be a valid solution or is there something better?

Thanks.

Hi Marco,

maybe you're looking for this: ISecurePreferences.

With ISecurePreferences you can save, load and edit specific settings. In addition you can (automatically) encrypt your data.
By using ISecurePreferences you can store all your data in one class (if you want to) and there's no need for using static files because everything is saved right in your plugin.

Best.
