note 62052 added to function.file

I used trucex modification of mvanbeek config file reader class, with the modifications trucex suggested to use generic keys. I added a couple of things to solve problems I had with comments. <? class config_reader { var $filename; var $settings; function config_reader ($myfile) { $this->filename = $myfile; $this->getSettings(); } function getSettings () { $config = file($this->filename); reset($config); foreach ($config as $line) { $line = rtrim($line); # Get rid of newline characters $line = ltrim($line); # Get rid of any leading spaces if ($line == "" || $line == "\n" || strstr($line,"#") === 0) { next($config); } else { list($key, $value) = preg_split("/\s*=\s*/", $line, 2); # split by "=" and removing blank space either side of it. # check for '#' coments after the value $pos=strpos($value,"#"); if($pos!==false) { $value = substr($value, 0, $pos); } $this->settings[$key] = $value; } } } } ?> Changes (in addition to trucex suggestions): - config file name as parameter in constructor - strstr($line,"#") === 0 instead of strstr($line,"#") == 1 - remove comments after a value. I am sure this can be done much better with regular expressions :-). Also would be a good idea to allow some escaping to allow the use of '#' inside values I tested it... but not to thoroughly. Use it at your own risk ;-) ---- Server IP: 130.206.1.5 Probable Submitter: 85.49.12.110 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.file.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+62052 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+62052&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+62052&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+62052&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+62052&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+62052&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: already in docs -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+62052&report=yes&reason=already+in+docs Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+62052&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+62052&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
