An STL C++ INI read/write library, written mostly with Grand Prix 4 configuration files in mind
Yet another library to read, write and manipulate INI files. Written all in C++ and using only STL, it should be fairly portable, albeit it was developed with how INI files have been historically used in the Grand Prix 4 modding community.
It can be included in your project by coping IniLib.h and IniLib.cpp directly into it, or by using the pre-compiled static or dynamic libraries.
The following apply:
- All entries are single-line, multiline is not supported
- Section and Key names are case insensitive
- Empty Section and Key names are allowed
- Comments, starting with a semicolon (;) are allowed, both in line and trailing, but will not be retained
- Values are always strings or arrays of strings, separated by a comma (,). All typecasting is left to the user
After load, all data is store in memory, until save. There is no provision to store filenames, that have therefore to be explicitly indicated at all times. The order of sections and keys will be maintained on load and save operations.
Since the library relies on std::string to store all data, encoding is system-dependant.
A simple Test.cpp file is included in the repo, with some simple tests and use-cases.
The library is Doxygen-ready. Docs might be added to this section in the future
