Settings.with_backend

Description:

[ CCode ( has_construct_function = false ) ]
[ Version ( since = "2.26" ) ]
public Settings.with_backend (string schema_id, SettingsBackend backend)

Creates a new Settings object with the schema specified by schema_id and a given SettingsBackend.

Creating a Settings object with a different backend allows accessing settings from a database other than the usual one. For example, it may make sense to pass a backend corresponding to the "defaults" settings database on the system to get a settings object that modifies the system default settings instead of the settings for this user.

Parameters:

schema_id	the id of the schema
backend	the SettingsBackend to use

Returns:

a new Settings object
