INI Utils

Library for reading and writing INI files.

Usage

INI files are broken up into discrete sections of settings with values. Each section and setting name are case sensitive but accept spaces.

Initialization

Begin by defining a new INI file

IniFile iniFile = new IniFile(filePath);

Read Settings

To read settings you provide the name of the section in the file, and the name of the setting in the section.

var setting = iniFile.ReadSetting("global", "color");

Or read all settings in a section at once with

var settings = iniFile.ReadSettings("global");

Write Settings

To write settings you provide the name of the section, and an instance of the Setting class, which has an identifying name and a setting value.

iniFile.WriteSetting("global", new Setting("color", value));

You can also write an entire section of settings at once as shown below.

// Create a list of settings
var settings = new List<Setting>
{
    new Setting("color", value),
    new Setting("name", "sam")
};

// Write the settings to the global section
iniFile.WriteSettings("global", settings);
