[Solved]How to set to a Config file?

[Rainfur]

I've currently got a configuration file being written to, using the line:

 

	Consts.hasInitialAudioSetupBeenDisplayed = config.get("Audio", "audioSetup", false).getBoolean(false);

 

How would I set this value in the config file to say, true? I've tried to do the same .get() then a .set(), but it did not work.

Well I'm not sure if i get what your wanting 100% but i think your trying to rewrite the file correct?

 

As far as i know you can't. The way i would do it is delete the file using built in java io then rewrite the whole config file again with a setBoolean(true), Mabye.

 

Once again - I'm not sure if this is what you wanted or wether you can or not but this is how i would do it.

Thanks, that appears to have worked.

The reason why it wasn't when I tried that before was I was accessing a different instance of the Config file than was being used.

different instance

 

There are three kinds of programming errors:

 

Off-by-one errors and bad reference errors.

Yep.

 

Generally, I don't make stupid mistakes like that, I guess I was tired or just derped.
