Detailed Description

Configuration File object.

This section documents the configuration file objects of the GPAC framework. A specific global configuration file is used for libgpac, see Library configuration. Such objects may be used by third-party applications to store data, and are used by the player scripting API to store various GUI data. A configuration file is formatted as the INI file mode of WIN32 in sections and keys.

[Section1]
Key1=foo
Key2=bar
 
[Section2]
Key1=@multiline

Key3=2
