Lendo arquivos INI em C#

Neste artigo veremos como ler arquivos INI em C# utilizando o Ini.cs.


1. A Classe Ini.cs

using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
using System.Text;


namespace Ini
{
 /// 

 /// Create a New INI file to store or load data
 /// 
 public class IniFile
 {
  public string path;

  [DllImport("kernel32")]
  private static extern long WritePrivateProfileString(string section,string key,string val,string filePath);
  [DllImport("kernel32")]
  private static extern int GetPrivateProfileString(string section,string key,string def,StringBuilder retVal,int size,string filePath);

  /// 

  /// INIFile Constructor.
  /// 
  ///   public IniFile(string INIPath)
  {
   path = INIPath;
  }
  /// 

  /// Write Data to the INI File
  /// 
  ///   /// Section name
  ///   /// Key Name
  ///   /// Value Name
  public void IniWriteValue(string Section,string Key,string Value)
  {
   WritePrivateProfileString(Section,Key,Value,this.path);
  }
  
  /// 

  /// Read Data Value From the Ini File
  /// 
  ///   ///   ///   /// 
  public string IniReadValue(string Section,string Key)
  {
   StringBuilder temp = new StringBuilder(255);
   int i = GetPrivateProfileString(Section,Key,"",temp,255,this.path);
   return temp.ToString();

  }
 }
}

2. Utilizando em seu código

IniFile iniFile = new IniFile("C:\\boot.ini");
string timeout = iniFile.IniReadValue("boot loader", "timeout"));
string default = iniFile.IniReadValue("boot loader", "default"));

Espero ter ajudado.
