## Function Documentation

## ◆ load_prc_file()

ConfigPage* load_prc_file | ( | const Filename & | filename | ) |

A convenience function for loading explicit prc files from a disk file or from within a multifile (via the virtual file system).

Save the return value and pass it to unload_prc_file() if you ever want to unload this file later.

The filename is first searched along the default prc search path, and then also along the model path, for convenience.

This function is defined in putil instead of in dtool with the read of the prc stuff, so that it can take advantage of the virtual file system (which is defined in express), and the model path (which is in putil).

## ◆ load_prc_file_data()

EXPCL_PANDA_PUTIL ConfigPage* load_prc_file_data | ( | const std::string & | name,
|  | const std::string & | data
| ) |  |

Another convenience function to load a prc file from an explicit string, which represents the contents of the prc file.

The first parameter is an arbitrary name to assign to this in-memory prc file. Supply a filename if the data was read from a file, or use any other name that is meaningful to you. The name is only used when the set of loaded prc files is listed.

## ◆ unload_prc_file()

bool unload_prc_file | ( | ConfigPage * | page | ) |

Unloads (and deletes) a ConfigPage that represents a prc file that was previously loaded by load_prc_file().

Returns true if successful, false if the file was unknown.

After this function has been called, the ConfigPage pointer is no longer valid and should not be used again.
