/** @mainpage ./tdeconf_update
|
|
|
|
tdeconf_update is a tool designed to update config files. Over time applications
|
|
sometimes need to rearrange the way configuration options are stored. Since
|
|
such an update shouldn't influence the configuration options that the user
|
|
has selected, the application must take care that the options stored in the
|
|
old way will still be honored.
|
|
|
|
What used to happen is that the application looks up both the old and the
|
|
new configuration option and then decides which one to use. This method has
|
|
several drawbacks:
|
|
- The application may need to read more configuration files than strictly
|
|
needed, resulting in a slower startup.
|
|
- The application becomes bigger with code that will only be used once.
|
|
|
|
tdeconf_update addresses these problems by offering a framework to update
|
|
configuration files without adding code to the application itself.
