Mapping Guidelines

Use the following guidelines when mapping to sections within an ini file:

  1. Block name

    Use the section header (without brackets) as block name.

    In this example, the block name is Info.
  2. Attribute name

    Use the ini attribute (the label before the equal sign) as the variable attribute.

    In this example, using the attribute name InfoName returns the value INTL.

In the example, using the block name Info and the attribute name Version returns the value 1.00.000.
