ini

At work we use a .ini file to set variables prior to calling the rest of the framework (I think it goes function getConfigVars(){ //read my_config.ini file .... //call framework } and I have always wondered if there was a benefit to doing it that way. It seems to me that you then have to write access rules to stop people from looking at it from the web and php has to parse it and understand it. So, why use my_config.ini rather than my_config.php? It is not like anyone should be touching it after it is set up and it seems more convenient to just call the variables and be able to have your IDE

Final Edit: I was able to locate the duplicate field in the ini file. Thanks for your help everyone! I'm using a regular expression to parse an ini file and LINQ to store it in a Dictionary: Sample Data: [WindowSettings] Window X Pos='0' Window Y Pos='0' Window Maximized='false' Window Name='Jabberwocky' [Logging] Directory='C:\Rosetta Stone\Logs' EDIT: Here is the file actually causing the problem: http://pastebin.com/mQSrkrcP EDIT2: I've narrowed it down to being caused by the last section in the file: [list_first_nonprintable] For some reason one of the files that I'm parsing with this is

Each Pyramid application has an associated .ini file that contains its settings. For example, a default might look like: [app:main] use = egg:MyProject pyramid.reload_templates = true pyramid.debug_authorization = false pyramid.debug_notfound = false pyramid.debug_routematch = false ... I am wondering if it is possible to add your own configuration values in there, and read them at run-time (mostly from a view callable). For instance, I might want to have [app:main] blog.title = "Custom blog name" blog.comments_enabled = true ... Or is it better to have a separate .ini file and parse it during

Greetings fellow developers, I am trying to use composer for a PHP project of mine on a development server I recently booted up and for some reason I am unable to. I successfully installed composer, however, when I try to run the require command I get the following error: root@webserver:/var/mypersonal/index# composer require php-amqplib/php-amqplib PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '/usr/lib/php/20151012/php_openssl.dll' - /usr/lib/php/20151012/php_openssl.dll: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory in Unknown on line 0 Do not run Composer as root

Are comments allowed in Windows ini files? (...assuming you're using the GetPrivateProfileString api functions to read them...) [Section] Name=Value ; comment ; full line comment And, is there a proper spec of the .INI file format anywhere? Thanks for the replies - However maybe I wasn't clear enough. It's only the format as read by Windows API Calls that I'm interested in. I know other implementations allow comments, but it's specifically the MS Windows spec and implementation that I need to know about.
