    Now, you can use ezini_hasvariable() like
    For example:
    ezini_hasvariable( 'URL', 'URL', 'my.site' )
=
ezini( 'URL', 'URL', 'my.ini',,,'hasVariable' )


    ezini( <BlockName>, <SettingName>, <FileName>,
       <IniPath>, <Should we put implementation to cache file?: 'inCache' or true()>,
       <Should we check for existence: 'hasVariable' or true()> )

    When compilation of tpl is enabled:
    ezini( 'URL', 'URL', 'my.ini',, 'inCache')
=
ezini( 'URL', 'URL', 'my.ini',, true())


    => if ini variable doesn't exist warnings will not be shown

  • 4th parameter

    You should add in this document the fourth parameter which is not documented but implemented !

    ezini( section, variable [, ini file [, dynamic] ] )

    If dynamic = true, the value will be dynamically retrieved from ini file. Else, it will be retrieved during template compilation and will be hard coded in the compiled template.

      Sorry, I'm mistaken :

      ezini( section, variable [, ini file [, ini path [, dynamic] ] ] )

      If you don't need 'ini path' to be set, you can specify false()
