Defining Changes to Other INI Files

You can create an INI change control file to make changes to any INI file that a driver needs. For example, you could initialize an OS/2 profile, define MIDI maps, and define external pages. You define changes to INI files using the ProfileData structure.

The following shows an example of the ProfileData structure.

   ProfileData =
      (
      ini="inifilename"
      appname="appname"
      keyname="keyname"
      dll="resourcedllname"
      id=resourceid
      )

inifilename

Specifies the name of an OS/2 INI file. For example, MIDITYPE.INI.
appname
Specifies the value of the appname parameter. This is the appname to be used in the INI file.
keyname
Specifies the unique name (the variable name or keyname) of the item being installed
resourcedllname
Specifies the name of the DLL that contains a RCDATA resource with the ID identified in resourceid.
resourceid
Specifies the resource ID of the RCDATA resource (where the value is stored in the RC file). The resourceid is a LONG numeric value. For example, 120L.
