$ini
[, bool $process_sections = false
[, int $scanner_mode = INI_SCANNER_NORMAL
]] )
parse_ini_string() returns the settings in string
ini in an associative array.
The structure of the ini string is the same as the php.ini's.
iniThe contents of the ini file being parsed.
process_sections
By setting the process_sections
parameter to TRUE, you get a multidimensional array, with
the section names and settings included. The default
for process_sections is FALSE
scanner_mode
Can either be INI_SCANNER_NORMAL (default) or
INI_SCANNER_RAW. If INI_SCANNER_RAW
is supplied, then option values will not be parsed.
The settings are returned as an associative array on success,
and FALSE on failure.
Nota: There are reserved words which must not be used as keys for ini files. These include: null, yes, no, true, false, on, off, none. Values null, off, no and false result in "". Values on, yes and true result in "1". Characters ?{}|&~![()^" must not be used anywhere in the key and have a special meaning in the value.
