IniUtil

Made for Windows software developers, IniUtil represents a COM library that can be used to handle INI configuration files with ease. It facilitates a dual interface that gives you the possibility to read and write INI files from various languages supported by COM, such as VBScript, ASP, Visual C++, Windows Script, JScript, VBA, Visual Basic 6, and Delphi.

The project was designed to help Windows developers manage configuration files easier than having to make modifications to the registry, which can quickly lead to system stability issues. Although it can be used for applications that require installation, it's better suited for portable utilities that can be swiftly moved from one device to another m since it provides end users with the possibility to keep settings written down in INI files.

As far as its functionality is concerned, IniUtil takes cue from Win32 APIs. It makes visible all Win32 INI SDK calls using the DLL, which is capable of resolving API issues that requires you to know the size of the file you are reading from an INI before actually reading the file. Rich error details are utilized via the ISupportErrorInfo COM interface. The downloaded package includes separate DLLs for each architecture type: x86 and x64.
