Storing user configurable settings

[atonical]

Hi,

I would like to store some user configurable settings in the widget. Which means, these settings need to be persistance and reloaded whenever the user loads the widget. I am thinking of a text file implementation, where the widget will read a text file from the application own folder. Is it possible to read a external text file locally stored in the phone from a widget?

Not possible (local text file access). You could use setPreferenceForKey. And developing a (Netscape) browser plugin might work, too (but you'd need to deploy that separately and it would have to be preinstalled on the phone for any benefit for a WRT widget). You can also store the settings on the network (your server).

Here is a simple tutorial on how to store settings.
