INI component reads and writes Windows style INI files.
It provides a comprehensive set of functions making INI
files a powerful way to store application settings.
There are three common ways to store program
information on the hard disk: in the Windows registry,
in INI files or in XML files. Using XML files is the
preferred way to store initialization data in .NET (the
registry is getting cluttered which makes it slow and
INI files are much less flexible than XML files).
However, if you're porting applications from older
platforms to .NET, or if your data initialization file
structure must be compatible with some other program,
sometimes you're forced to use INI files. The Pivo INI
component is a fully featured, easy to use
implementation and it is written in 100% managed C# code.
