[AG-DEV] node service api, saving/restoring configs ....

[Rhys Hawkins]

Hi Darran,

In the __init__ function do (for each setting):
        self.debug = OptionSetParameter( "debug", "disable", [ "enable",
"disable" ] )
	self.configuration.append( self.debug )

Then in your Start method, you can get the setting using:
	if self.debug.value == "enable":
		#do stuff

The toolkit takes care of saving settings. The best documentation is the
code so unzip the VideoProducerService.zip and have a look at the other 
ways to display settings to the user (eg TextParameter).

Cheers,
    Rhys
