Syntax
|
|
======
|
|
|
|
This directory contains a very simple INI file parser. An INI file consists
|
|
of a sequence of lines up to the end of file. A line may be one of the
|
|
following:
|
|
|
|
1) A blank line.
|
|
|
|
2) A comment line. Any line beginning with ';'
|
|
|
|
3) A section header. Definitions are divided into sections. Each
|
|
section begins with a line containing the section name enclosed in
|
|
square brackets. For example, "[section1]". The left bracket must
|
|
be the first character on the line. Section names are case
|
|
insensitive, i.e., "SECTION1" and "Section1" refer to the same
|
|
section.
|
|
|
|
4) Variable assignments. A variable assignment is a variable name
|
|
followed by the '=' sign and then the value of the variable. For
|
|
example, "A=B": "A" is the variable name; "B" is the variable value.
|
|
All variables following the section header belong in the section.
|
|
|
|
Variable names may be preceded with white space. Whitespace is not
|
|
permitted before the '=' sign. Variable names are case insensitive,
|
|
i.e., "A" and "a" refer to the same variable name.
|
|
|
|
Variable values may be numeric (any base) or a string. The case of
|
|
string arguments is preserved.

Test Program
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
Below is a simple test program:
|
|
|
|
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
|
|
{
|
|

|
|
FILE *stream;
|
|
FAR char *ptr;
|
|
long value;
|
|
|
|
stream = fopen("/tmp/file.ini", "w");
|
|
fprintf(stream, "; Test INI file\n");
|
|
fprintf(stream, "[section1]\n");
|
|
fprintf(stream, " VAR1=1\n");
|
|
fprintf(stream, " VAR2=2\n");
|
|
fprintf(stream, " VAR3=3\n");
|
|
fprintf(stream, "\n");
|
|
fprintf(stream, "[section2]\n");
|
|
fprintf(stream, " VAR4=4\n");
|
|
fprintf(stream, " VAR5=5\n");
|
|
fprintf(stream, "VAR6=6\n");
|
|
fprintf(stream, "\n");
|
|
fclose(stream);
|
|
|
