Class Method Details

.create(hkey, subkey, desired = KEY_ALL_ACCESS, opt = REG_OPTION_RESERVED)

Registry.create(key, subkey, desired = KEY_ALL_ACCESS, opt = REG_OPTION_RESERVED)

Registry.create(key, subkey, desired = KEY_ALL_ACCESS, opt = REG_OPTION_RESERVED) { |reg| … }

Create or open the registry key subkey under key. You can use predefined key HKEY_* (see Registry::Constants)

If subkey is already exists, key is opened and #created? method will return false.

If block is given, the key is closed automatically.

      obj.close
    end
  else
    obj
  end
end

.expand_environ(str)

Replace %w+% into the environment value of what is contained between the %'s This method is used for REG_EXPAND_SZ.

For detail, see expandEnvironmentStrings Win32 API.

Registry.open(key, subkey, desired = KEY_READ, opt = REG_OPTION_RESERVED)

Registry.open(key, subkey, desired = KEY_READ, opt = REG_OPTION_RESERVED) { |reg| … }

Open the registry key subkey under key. key is Registry object of parent key. You can use predefined key HKEY_* (see Registry::Constants) desired and opt is access mask and key option. For detail, see the MSDN. If block is given, the key is closed automatically.
