Get and set .ini file values c #

Suppose you have an .ini file with the following information:

[Data]
Count=5

The following functions will allow you to obtain and modify your configuration file in a simple way:

using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
using System.Text;

namespace qualityinfosolutions
{
    public class Util
    { 
        [DllImport("kernel32")]
        public static extern int GetPrivateProfileString(string section,
                 string key, string def, StringBuilder retVal,
            int size, string filePath);

        [DllImport("kernel32")]
        public static extern long WritePrivateProfileString(string section,
            string key, string val, string filePath);
    }
}

Mode of use

//Read Values
StringBuilder count = new StringBuilder();
string stringValue = "";
string file = "C:\\config.ini";

if (File.Exists(file))
{
     Util.GetPrivateProfileString("Data",
                                  "Count",
                                  "",
                                  count, 
                                  count.Capacity, 
                                  archivo);
     stringValue = count.ToString();
 }
else {
     MsgError("Unable to find file " + file);
}

//Modify values

Util.WritePrivateProfileString("Data", "Count", 150, file); 

I hope this is useful
