Change location of RBuilder.ini without Designer

rbuser

I have the problem, that I don't have write permission in the windows
directory and therefore I get the exception 'Can not write to
RBuilder.ini' when I try to start my app. I have read in the newsgroup,
that I have the change the property IniStorageType of the TppDesigner
component. But I don't use the TppDesigner component so far, I only use
TppReport. Exists a way to change the RBuilder.ini location without the
TppDesigner component?

Example:

uses
ppIniStorage;

var
lIniStorageClass: TppIniStorageClass;
begin

lIniStorageClass :=
TppIniStoragePlugIns.GetClassForName(myIniStorageType);

if (lIniStorageClass <> nil) then
begin
TppIniStoragePlugIn.SetClass(lIniStorageClass);
TppIniStoragePlugIn.SetStorageName(myIniStorageName);
end;


end;

Hi Nard,

where should I add your code example? I have added the following code in
the OnCreate Event of my MainForm, but I still get the error, that the
RBuilder.ini can not be written.

procedure TForm2.FormCreate(Sender: TObject);
begin
IniStorageClass := TppIniStoragePlugIns.GetClassForName('IniFile');

if (IniStorageClass <> nil) then
begin
TppIniStoragePlugIn.SetClass(IniStorageClass);
TppIniStoragePlugIn.SetStorageName('c:\RBuildertest.ini');
end;
end;

Regards

Guido

I researched this and it looks like the new Toolbar Theme support we added
for RB 10 is calling the IniStorage from the Initialization section of one
of the toolbar units. I have created a patch for RB 10.04 that avoids doing
this. Email support@digital-metaphors.com and request this patch.
