Method Detail

getValue

public byte[] getValue()

Retrieves the type specific form of the data for this value which is an array of bytes.

If the type was changed through a call to RegistryValue.setValueType(ValueType) and is no longer of type REG_BINARY, REG_NONE, REG_LINK, REG_RESOURCE_LIST, REG_FULL_RESOURCE_DESCRIPTOR, or REG_RESOURCE_REQUIREMENTS_LIST, then the byte form of the data is returned.

Returns:

An array of bytes representing the data.

setValue

public int setValue(byte... value)

Used to set the data of this value. If the type is no longer of type REG_BINARY, REG_NONE, REG_LINK, REG_RESOURCE_LIST, REG_FULL_RESOURCE_DESCRIPTOR, or REG_RESOURCE_REQUIREMENTS_LIST, then a call to RegistryValue.setByteData(byte[]) is made.

Parameters:

value - A byte array representing the new data for the value. NOTE: As of version 1.7.6, this can now be a variable list of bytes.

Returns:

An integer error code which tells if the operation was successful or not. To obtain a description of the error, use RegistryKey.formatErrorMessage(int).

refreshData

public int refreshData()

This method is used to update the data for this value because the data does not update automatically if it was changed.

Specified by:
