I'm making a Win32 Console app in Visual C++ 2008, and I want to read all strings from an INI file. How can I do this?

Alright, thanks. Smile

Edit: Okay, it's working. Now, how can I dynamically read every string?

Basically a foreach statement to execute code with each key.

Well, what I'm trying to make should allow the user to add as many entries as they want.

I would go with a vector also. Along with strings:

Code:

#include <string>
#include <vector>

struct IniEntry
{
    std::string strKey;
    std::string strName;
    std::string strValue;
};
std::vector<IniEntry> cIniEntries;


You can add a new entry to cIniEntries using the vector command, push_back such as:

Code:
IniEntry iEntry;
iEntry.strKey = "keyname";
iEntry.strName = "item_name";
iEntry.strValue = "value";
cIniEntries.push_back( iEntry );
