Detailed Description

Class for the handling of simple configuration files.

The file format used by this class is similar to that of MS Windows INI files. It is possible to divide a file into sections which are denoted by brackets (e.g. [Section]). All values are stored in the form <key> = <value> and are assigned to a section. The INIFile class is able to store values of the types string, double, signed and unsigned int and bool.

The usual way to work with this class consists of the following steps:

Open an existing or create a new INI file with a call to connect()
Check for the existence of entries (entry_exists()), access stored values (get_entry()) or add new entries (add_entry()). Note that the function add_section() is obsolete and only kept for backward compatibility. A new section is now implicitly generated by specifying it in a call to add_entry().
disconnect() from the INI file. Only now are all entries and sections written to the file.

To be able to use the INIFile class, an object is created. After that the object is connected to a given filename. This means that, if the file exists, it is opened and the content is parsed and stored in memory. The second (boolean) parameter to the connect() function indicates that the file should be created if it does not exists.

Now a new section named Main is generated and several entries are added. Note that the INI file is not written to disc until the disconnect() function is called. All additions and modifications are only performed on the stored data in memory.

In the second part of this example the just created INI file is opened (connected) again and the created entries are read and printed to stdout.
