Every customer wants something different, even if your code
is as general as you can. This truth is nothing new, it's
just a principle I learned in the last years, it doesn't
wonder me, it doesn't make me angry any more. I know I have
to build my programms with as many parameters as I can.
Well, it works, but if I let my user input all of the
parameters needed every time he enters the programm he's
going to hate me. So I make configuration files. With plain
DOS I used to work with DBF files because of my Clipper
background. In Windows we have INI files. There is only one
problem with INI files - everybody can change it, put
garbage in or delete it. If you come with an application
into bigger companies they certainly will ask you about
security of you data. Well, TRtDbIniFile does all TIniFile
can do with INI files with the same methods but it saves
all this in database you are connected to, say Oracle,
Sybase and the like. So you configuration data can be so
secure as you database backend. If I needed to I could have
used my old DBF files also.
