Lesen/Schreiben in die Windows-Registrierung mit Java

Wie ist es möglich, mit Java in die Windows-Registrierung zu lesen/schreiben?

Ich weiß, dass diese Frage alt ist, aber es ist das erste Suchergebnis bei Google zu “Java Read/Write to Registry”. Kürzlich habe ich diesen erstaunlichen Code gefunden, der:

• Kann in JEDEM Teil der Registrierung lesen/schreiben.
• VERWENDET KEIN JNI.
• VERWENDET KEINE DRITTANBIETER/EXTERNE ANWENDUNGEN ZUM ARBEITEN.
• VERWENDET NICHT DIE WINDOWS-API (direkt)

Dies ist reiner Java-Code.

Es verwendet Reflektion, um zu arbeiten, indem es tatsächlich auf die privaten Methoden in der zugreift java.util.prefs.Preferences Klasse. Die Interna dieser Klasse sind kompliziert, aber die Klasse selbst ist sehr einfach zu benutzen.

Der folgende Code ruft beispielsweise die exakte Windows-Distribution ab aus der Registrierung:

String value = WinRegistry.readString (
    WinRegistry.HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,                             //HKEY
   "SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows NT\\CurrentVersion",           //Key
   "ProductName");                                              //ValueName
    System.out.println("Windows Distribution = " + value);          

Hier ist die ursprüngliche Klasse. Einfach kopieren und einfügen und es sollte funktionieren:

import java.lang.reflect.Method;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;
import java.util.ArrayList;

Sie brauchen nicht wirklich ein Paket von Drittanbietern. Windows verfügt über ein Reg-Dienstprogramm für alle Registrierungsvorgänge. Um das Befehlsformat zu erhalten, gehen Sie zur DOS-Eingabeaufforderung und geben Sie Folgendes ein:

reg /?

Sie können anrufen Reg durch die Runtime-Klasse:

Runtime.getRuntime().exec("reg <your parameters here>");

Das Bearbeiten von Schlüsseln und das Hinzufügen neuer Schlüssel ist mit dem obigen Befehl unkompliziert. Um die Registrierung zu lesen, müssen Sie Reg‘s Ausgabe, und es ist ein wenig knifflig. Hier ist der Code:

            Process process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("reg query " + 
                    '"'+ location + "\" /v " + key);

            StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(process.getInputStream());
            reader.start();
            process.waitFor();
            reader.join();
            String output = reader.getResult();

            // Output has the following format:

Nativer Java-Zugriff (JNA) ist ein hervorragendes Projekt für die Arbeit mit nativen Bibliotheken und bietet Unterstützung für die Windows-Registrierung in der Plattformbibliothek (platform.jar) durch Advapi32Util und Advapi32.

Aktualisieren: Hier ist ein Ausschnitt mit einigen Beispielen, wie einfach es ist, JNA zu verwenden, um mit der Windows-Registrierung mit JNA 3.4.1 zu arbeiten.

import com.sun.jna.platform.win32.Advapi32Util;
import com.sun.jna.platform.win32.WinReg;

public class WindowsRegistrySnippet {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Read a string
        String productName = Advapi32Util.registryGetStringValue(
            WinReg.HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, "SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows NT\\CurrentVersion", "ProductName");
        System.out.printf("Product Name: %s\n", productName);

        // Read an int (& 0xFFFFFFFFL for large unsigned int)
        int timeout = Advapi32Util.registryGetIntValue(
            WinReg.HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, "SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows NT\\CurrentVersion\\Windows", "ShutdownWarningDialogTimeout");
        System.out.printf("Shutdown Warning Dialog Timeout: %d (%d as unsigned long)\n", timeout, timeout & 0xFFFFFFFFL);

        // Create a key and write a string
        Advapi32Util.registryCreateKey(WinReg.HKEY_CURRENT_USER, "SOFTWARE\\StackOverflow");
        Advapi32Util.registrySetStringValue(WinReg.HKEY_CURRENT_USER, "SOFTWARE\\StackOverflow", "url", "http://stackoverflow.com/a/6287763/277307");

        // Delete a key
        Advapi32Util.registryDeleteKey(WinReg.HKEY_CURRENT_USER, "SOFTWARE\\StackOverflow");
    }

Ich habe den ursprünglich von David geposteten reinen Java-Code erhöht, um den Zugriff auf den 32-Bit-Abschnitt der Registrierung von einer 64-Bit-JVM und umgekehrt zu ermöglichen. Ich glaube nicht, dass eine der anderen Antworten darauf eingeht.

Hier ist es:

 * and 64-bits view from a 32-bits JVM (KEY_WOW64_64KEY).

Ich habe dies vor der Verwendung getan jRegistryKey. Es ist eine LGPL-Java/JNI-Bibliothek, die alles tun kann, was Sie brauchen. Hier ist ein Beispiel dafür, wie ich es verwendet habe, um die Registrierungsbearbeitung über regedit und auch die Option „Ordneroptionen anzeigen“ für mich selbst in Windows über die Registrierung zu aktivieren.

import java.io.File;
import ca.beq.util.win32.registry.RegistryKey;
import ca.beq.util.win32.registry.RegistryValue;
import ca.beq.util.win32.registry.RootKey;
import ca.beq.util.win32.registry.ValueType;


public class FixStuff {

private static final String REGEDIT_KEY = "Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Policies\\System";
private static final String REGEDIT_VALUE = "DisableRegistryTools";
private static final String REGISTRY_LIBRARY_PATH = "\\lib\\jRegistryKey.dll";
private static final String FOLDER_OPTIONS_KEY = "Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Policies\\Explorer";
private static final String FOLDER_OPTIONS_VALUE = "NoFolderOptions";

public static void main(String[] args) {
    //Load JNI library
    RegistryKey.initialize( new File(".").getAbsolutePath()+REGISTRY_LIBRARY_PATH );

    enableRegistryEditing(true);        
    enableShowFolderOptions(true);
}

private static void enableShowFolderOptions(boolean enable) {
    RegistryKey key = new RegistryKey(RootKey.HKEY_CURRENT_USER,FOLDER_OPTIONS_KEY);
    RegistryKey key2 = new RegistryKey(RootKey.HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,FOLDER_OPTIONS_KEY);
    RegistryValue value = new RegistryValue();
    value.setName(FOLDER_OPTIONS_VALUE);
    value.setType(ValueType.REG_DWORD_LITTLE_ENDIAN);
    value.setData(enable?0:1);

    if(key.hasValue(FOLDER_OPTIONS_VALUE)) {
        key.setValue(value);
    }
    if(key2.hasValue(FOLDER_OPTIONS_VALUE)) {
        key2.setValue(value);
    }           
}

private static void enableRegistryEditing(boolean enable) {
    RegistryKey key = new RegistryKey(RootKey.HKEY_CURRENT_USER,REGEDIT_KEY);
    RegistryValue value = new RegistryValue();
    value.setName(REGEDIT_VALUE);
    value.setType(ValueType.REG_DWORD_LITTLE_ENDIAN);
    value.setData(enable?0:1);

    if(key.hasValue(REGEDIT_VALUE)) {
        key.setValue(value);
    }
}

}

Ja, mit der java.util.Preferences-API, da die Windows-Implementierung die Registrierung als Backend verwendet.

Am Ende hängt es davon ab, was Sie tun möchten: Das Speichern von Einstellungen für Ihre App ist das, was die Einstellungen einfach großartig machen. Wenn Sie tatsächlich Registrierungsschlüssel ändern möchten, die nichts mit Ihrer App zu tun haben, benötigen Sie eine JNI-App, wie von Mark beschrieben (schamloser Diebstahl hier):

Von einem schnellen Google: Überprüfen Sie das WinPack für JNIWrapper. Es bietet volle Unterstützung für den Zugriff auf die Windows-Registrierung, einschließlich Lesen und Schreiben.

Die WinPack-Demo hat als Beispiel einen Registry Viewer implementiert.

Überprüfen Sie bei http://www.teamdev.com/jniwrapper/winpack/#registry_access

Und…

Es gibt auch versuchen JNIRegistry @ http://www.trustice.com/java/jnireg/

Es besteht auch die Möglichkeit, eine externe App aufzurufen, die für das Lesen/Schreiben der Registry zuständig ist.
