Detailed Description

The only function in this file is meant to initialize the preferences system early in the load process.

The API in this file is used to read and store preferences used by gnucash.

This is done in a way to hide the actual preferences backend from the rest of the engine.

This api is a generic one. To actually store and load preferences, a preferences backend should be configured. Currently only one backend is defined: the preferences backend.

Note that preferences are organized in groups. Most functions will require both a group and a preference name to find the exact preference to work with.

Function Documentation

void gnc_prefs_bind ( const gchar *  group,
const gchar *  pref_name,

When this succeeds a change of the setting will automatically update the bound object property and vice versa.

Parameters
groupThis string contains the group name of the preference to bind to.
preferenceThis string is the name of the particular preference to bind to.
objectThe object to be bound.
propertyThe property of the object to bind to.
