Writing a config file with custom options


<?php
require_once 'Config.php';

$conf = new Config();
$root = $conf->getRoot();
$root->createComment('Demo config file with GenericConf container');
$root->createDirective('openLastFile', true);

$root->createBlank();
//GenericConf does not support sections, but section contents are serialized
// into the main config namespace
$dbsect = $root->createSection('database');
$dbsect->createDirective('host', 'db-server.example.org');
$dbsect->createDirective('name', 'demo-db');

$r = $conf->writeConfig(
    'generic-conf-write.txt',
    'genericconf',
    array(
        'comment' => '#',
        'equals'  => '=>',
    )
);
if (PEAR::isError($r)) {
    echo $r->getMessage() . "\n";
}
