Parse::PlainConfig 2.06

Parse::PlainConfig is a Perl module that provides OO objects which can parse and generate human-readable configuration files.

SYNOPSIS

 use Parse::PlainConfig;

 $conf = new Parse::PlainConfig;
 $conf = Parse::PlainConfig->new(
 'PARAM_DELIM' => '=',
 'FILE' => '.myrc',
 'MAX_BYTES' => 65536,
 'SMART_PARSER => 1,
 );

 $conf->property(PARAM_DELIM => '=');

 $rv = $conf->read('myconf.conf');
 $rv = $conf->read;
 $rv = $conf->readIfNewer;
 $conf->write('.myrc', 2);

 $conf->purge;

 @parameters = $conf->parameters;
 $conf->parameter(FOO => "bar");
 $value = $conf->parameter(FOO);
 $conf->describe(FOO => 'This is foo');
 $conf->coerce("string", qw(FOO BAR));

 @order = $conf->order;
 $conf->order(@new_order);

 $errstr = Parse::PlainConfig::ERROR;

 $rv = $conf->hasParameter('FOO');

The following methods are only supported for backwards compatibility reasons. They will likely be removed at some point in the future.

 # Use of the tags DELIM and PURGE are deprecated in favour of
 # PARAM_DELIM, LIST_DELIM, HASH_DELIM, and AUTOPURGE
 $conf = Parse::PlainConfig->new(
 'DELIM' => '=',
 'PURGE' => 1,
 );

 # As is the delim method since it works only on the tag delimiter
 $conf->delim('=');

 # Auto-purge should be enabled/disabled via the property method
 $conf->purge(1);

 # directives is replaced with parameters
 @directives = $conf->directives;

 # get/set methods are replaced with a unifed parameter method
 $field = $conf->get('KEY1');
 ($field1, $field2) = $conf->get(qw(KEY1 KEY2));
 $conf->set(KEY1 => 'foo', KEY2 => 'bar');

 # This was just a really bad idea to begin with, plus it's
 # effective broken at this point (only returns a copy of the
 # internal hash now, so it's effectively read-only)
 $hashref = $conf->getRef;

 # This is just a wrapper for the class function
 $errstr = $conf->error
