Config::General - Generic Config Module

|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
|
use Config::General;
|
|
|
|
|
$conf = new Config::General("rcfile");
|
|
|
|
|
my %config = $conf->getall;

DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
This small module opens a config file and parses it's
|
|
|
|
|
contents for you. The new method requires one parameter
|
|
|
|
|
which needs to be a filename. The method getall returns a
|
|
|
|
|
hash which contains all options and it's associated values
|
|
|
|
|
of your config file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The format of config files supported by Config::General is
|
|
|
|
|
inspired by the well known apache config format, in fact,
|
|
|
|
|
this module is 100% compatible to apache configs, but you
|
|
|
|
|
can also just use simple name/value pairs in your config
|
|
|
|
|
files.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In addition to the capabilities of an apache config file
|
|
|
|
|
it supports some enhancements such as here-documents, C-
|
|
|
|
|
style comments or multiline options.
