Recipe 498151: Example For winreg (2)


This recipe is another example of how to use the winreg module. The code had the first purpose of demonstrating the concept of a graphical shell built in Python. The shell was easily modified to make use of the Window's registry but retains traces of its original method of operation (all of which has been commented out).

Function "do_exit" describes the process of saving data to the registry. Function "do_config" describes how to extract information from the registry. Both functions have comments describing an alternate way to save and load information.

The following function was written after this recipe but could be easily used by the "do_exit" function. <pre> def mars(key, sub_key, sam): 'Make And Return Subkey' key = winreg.Key(key=key) for sub in sub_key.split(os.sep): if sub not in key.keys: key.keys = sub key = key.keys[sub] return winreg.Key(key=key, sam=sam) </pre> The first ten lines of "do_exit" could have been replaced with winreg = mars(HKEY.CURRENT_USER, 'Software\Atlantis Zero\Demo Shell\winreg', KEY.ALL_ACCESS)
