A section declaration starts with a '[' and ends * with a ']'. Sections occur on one line only.</li> * <li><b>Parameters:</b> Items in a section are known as parameters. Parameters * have a typical <code>key = value</code> format.</li> * <li><b>Comments:</b> Lines starting with a ';' are assumed to be comments.</li> * </ul> * </p> * <p> * There are various implementations of the ini file format by various vendors * which has caused a number of differences to appear. As far as possible this * configuration tries to be lenient and support most of the differences. * </p> * <p> * Some of the differences supported are as follows: * <ul> * <li><b>Comments:</b> The '#' character is also accepted as a comment * signifier.</li> * <li><b>Key value separtor:</b> The ':' character is also accepted in place of * '=' to separate keys and values in parameters, for example * <code>var1 : foo</code>.</li> * <li><b>Duplicate sections:</b> Typically duplicate sections are not allowed, * this configuration does however support it. In the event of a duplicate * section, the two section's values are merged.</li> * <li><b>Duplicate parameters:</b> Typically duplicate parameters are only * allowed if they are in two different sections, thus they are local to * sections; this configuration simply merges duplicates; if a section has a * duplicate parameter the values are then added to the key as a list.</li> * </ul> * </p> * <p> * Global parameters are also allowed; any parameters declared before a section * is declared are added to a global section. It is important to note that this * global section does not have a name. * </p> * <p> * In all instances, a parameter's key is prepended with its section name and a * '.' (period). Thus a parameter named "var1" in "section1" will have the key * <code>section1.var1</code> in this configuration. (This is the default * behavior. Because this is a hierarchical configuration you can change this by * setting a different {@link org.apache.commons.configuration.tree.ExpressionEngine}.) * </p> * <p> * <h3>Implementation Details:</h3> Consider the following ini file:<br> * <code> * default = ok<br> * <br> * [section1]<br> * var1 = foo<br> * var2 = doodle<br> * <br> * [section2]<br> * ; a comment<br> * var1 = baz<br> * var2 = shoodle<br> * bad =<br> * = worse<br> * <br> * [section3]<br> * # another comment<br> * var1 : foo<br> * var2 : bar<br> * var5 : test1<br> * <br> * [section3]<br> * var3 = foo<br> * var4 = bar<br> * var5 = test2<br> * </code> * </p> * <p> * This ini file will be parsed without error. Note: * <ul> * <li>The parameter named "default" is added to the global section, it's value * is accessed simply using <code>getProperty("default")</code>.</li> * <li>Section 1's parameters can be accessed using * <code>getProperty("section1.var1")</code>.</li> * <li>The parameter named "bad" simply adds the parameter with an empty value.</li> * <li>The empty key with value "= worse" is added using a key consisting of a * single space character. This key is still added to section 2 and the value * can be accessed using <code>getProperty("section2. ")</code>, notice the * period '.' and the space following the section name.</li> * <li>Section three uses both '=' and ':' to separate keys and values.</li> * <li>Section 3 has a duplicate key named "var5". The value for this key is * [test1, test2], and is represented as a List.</li> * </ul> * </p> * <p> * Internally, this configuration maps the content of the represented ini file * to its node structure in the following way: * <ul> * <li>Sections are represented by direct child nodes of the root node.</li> * <li>For the content of a section, corresponding nodes are created as children * of the section node.</li> * </ul> * This explains how the keys for the properties can be constructed. You can * also use other methods of {@link HierarchicalConfiguration} for querying or * manipulating the hierarchy of configuration nodes, for instance the * <code>configurationAt()</code> method for obtaining the data of a specific * section. * </p> * <p> * The set of sections in this configuration can be retrieved using the * <code>getSections()</code> method. For obtaining a * <code>SubnodeConfiguration</code> with the content of a specific section the * <code>getSection()</code> method can be used. * </p> * <p> * <em>Note:</em> Configuration objects of this type can be read concurrently by * multiple threads. However if one of these threads modifies the object, * synchronization has to be performed manually. * </p> * * @author <a * href="http://commons.apache.org/configuration/team-list.html">Commons * Configuration team</a> * @version $Id: HierarchicalINIConfiguration.java 720295 2008-11-24 21:29:42Z oheger $ * @since 1.6 */ public class HierarchicalINIConfiguration extends AbstractHierarchicalFileConfiguration { /** * The characters that signal the start of a comment line. */ protected static final String COMMENT_CHARS = "#;"; /** * The characters used to separate keys from values. */ protected static final String SEPARATOR_CHARS = "=:"; /** * The serial version UID. */ private static final long serialVersionUID = 2548006161386850670L; /** * Constant for the line separator. */ private static final String LINE_SEPARATOR = System.getProperty("line.separator"); /** * The line continuation character. */ private static final String LINE_CONT = "\\"; /** * Create a new empty INI Configuration. */ public HierarchicalINIConfiguration() { super(); } /** * Create and load the ini configuration from the given file. * * @param filename The name pr path of the ini file to load. * @throws ConfigurationException If an error occurs while loading the file */ public HierarchicalINIConfiguration(String filename) throws ConfigurationException { super(filename); } /** * Create and load the ini configuration from the given file. * * @param file The ini file to load. * @throws ConfigurationException If an error occurs while loading the file */ public HierarchicalINIConfiguration(File file) throws ConfigurationException { super(file); } /** * Create and load the ini configuration from the given url. * * @param url The url of the ini file to load. * @throws ConfigurationException If an error occurs while loading the file */ public HierarchicalINIConfiguration(URL url) throws ConfigurationException { super(url); } /** * Save the configuration to the specified writer. * * @param writer - The writer to save the configuration to. * @throws ConfigurationException If an error occurs while writing the * configuration */ public void save(Writer writer) throws ConfigurationException { PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter(writer); Iterator it = getSections().iterator(); while (it.hasNext()) { String section = (String) it.next(); if (section != null) { out.print("["); out.print(section); out.print("]"); out.println(); } Configuration subset = getSection(section); Iterator keys = subset.getKeys(); while (keys.hasNext()) { String key = (String) keys.next(); Object value = subset.getProperty(key); if (value instanceof Collection) { Iterator values = ((Collection) value).iterator(); while (values.hasNext()) { value = (Object) values.next(); out.print(key); out.print(" = "); out.print(formatValue(value.toString())); out.println(); } } else { out.print(key); out.print(" = "); out.print(formatValue(value.toString())); out.println(); } } out.println(); } out.flush(); } /** * Load the configuration from the given reader.
