IniSample

The [ini4j] library has a simple API: the .ini file is a map of sections, while the section is a map of options. Due to the Java 1.5 generics these are type safe maps.

This sample program expect the .ini file as a command line argument. If there is no such argument, it use the dwarfs.ini file.

import org.ini4j.Ini;

import java.io.FileReader;

public class IniSample
{
    public static final String FILENAME = "dwarfs.ini";

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
    {
        String filename = (args.length > 0) ? args[0] : FILENAME;
        Ini ini = new Ini(new FileReader(filename));

        for (String key : ini.get("sleepy").keySet())
        {
            System.out.println("sleepy/" + key + " = " + ini.get("sleepy").fetch(key));
        }
    }
}

Standard output:

sleepy/weight = 76.11
sleepy/height = 87.78
sleepy/age = 121
sleepy/homePage = http://snowwhite.tale/~sleepy
sleepy/homeDir = /home/sleepy
sleepy/fortuneNumber = 99
