Methods

    

  
      

        
 get an enumeration of nsIPropertyElement objects,
 which are read-only (i.e. setting properties on the element will
 not make changes back into the source nsIPersistentProperties


        


  
  nsISimpleEnumerator
  enumerate()


      

  

  
      

        
 shortcut to nsIProperty's get() which retrieves a string value
 directly (and thus faster)


        


  
  AString
  getStringProperty(in AUTF8String key)


      

  

  
      

        
 load a set of name/value pairs from the input stream
 names and values should be in UTF8


        


  
  void
  load(in nsIInputStream input)


      

  

  
      

        
 output the values to the stream - results will be in UTF8


        


  
  void
  save(in nsIOutputStream output, in AUTF8String header)


      

  

  
      

        
 shortcut to nsIProperty's set() which sets a string value
 directly (and thus faster)


        


  
  AString
  setStringProperty(in AUTF8String key, in AString value)


      

  

  
      

        
 call subclass() to make future calls to load() set the properties
 in this "superclass" instead


        


  
  void
  subclass(in nsIPersistentProperties superclass)
