Elementary provides a prefs (for "preferences") infrastructure, which consists of two sets of APIs:
Prefs data are simple key/value storage handles. One is able to set/get their values, which are Eina_Value
blobs (i.e. dynamically typed). You may also control the version of this data set, for updating purposes. Finally, you may register callbacks on changes on these data.
The main user of prefs data is the prefs widget. After its creation, it's bound to a given prefs data handle (if not, if gets its values from its definition file, which may have defaults). An elm prefs widget has its visuals defined by an .epb file, which is a compiled form of a
.edc counterpart – a textual definition much like Edje
.edc files. On these files, one defines the values (items) a prefs widget hold, which translate to other Elementary widgets. In other words, it does the mapping between UI widgets into prefs data values, and it keeps the synchrony between its child widgets' states and their corresponding prefs data values.

Set user data for a given prefs widget.
Once a prefs widget is created, after elm_prefs_file_set() is issued on it, all of its UI elements will get default values, when declared on that file. To fetch an user's own, personal set of those values, one gets to pair a prefs data handle to the prefs widget. This is what this call is intended for.
Prefs data values from prefs_data
with keys matching the ones present on the file passed on elm_prefs_file_set() to obj
will have their values applied to the respective UI elements of the widget.
When obj
dies, the values of the elements declared on its .epb file (the one set on elm_prefs_file_set()) marked as permanent will be written back to prefs_data, if it is writable. One is also able to make this writing event to take place automatically after each UI element modification by using elm_prefs_autosave_set().
