##### Config API

The juneau-config library contains a powerful API for creating and using INI-style config files.

##### Example configuration file:

| # A set of entries | [Section1] | | # An integer | key1 = 1 | | # A boolean | key2 = true | | # An array | key3 = 1,2,3 | | # A POJO | key4 = http://bar

Config files are accessed through the {@link oaj.config.Config} class which are created through the {@link oaj.config.Config.Builder} class. Builder creator methods are provided on the Config class:

| // Create a Config object | Config config = Config.create().name("MyConfig.cfg").build(); | | // Read values from section #1 | int key1 = config.getInt("Section1/key1"); | boolean key2 = config.getBoolean("Section1/key2"); | int[] key3 = config.getObject("Section1/key3", int[].class); | URL key4 = config.getObject("Section1/key4", URL.class);

The config language may look simple, but it is a very powerful feature with many capabilities.
