EzConfigGetValue

InstallShield 2019 » InstallScript Language Reference

The EzConfigGetValue function retrieves the numeric value of a parameter, such as FILES or BUFFERS, from the default system configuration file.

Unless changed by a call to ConfigSetFileName, the default system configuration file is the Config.sys file that was executed by the system during the boot sequence. To make another file the default system configuration file, call ConfigSetFileName. To determine the fully qualified name of the default system configuration file, call ConfigGetFileName.

Note • Do not mix the Ez configuration file functions and the advanced configuration file functions. After calling ConfigFileLoad, you cannot call any of the Ez configuration file functions until you call ConfigFileSave to save the file.
