Loading a .cfg database

Hi everyone,

I made a script that uses a .cfg file, with the cfg.setvalue et cfg.getvalue functions. In that script, I'd like to load this file into an array like this :

My .cfg file :

[Lua Config File]
pikachu=46
Baruch=-15

My array :

{pikachu = 46 ; Baruch = -15}

The problem is that getvalue doesn't make it possible, because I don't know the indexes in the .cfg file.
Is there any solution to go through every line of the .cfg file ? (something like next())

I've seen that Sveark bypassed this problem by merging all the lines into one big line, and using separators. I'd like to avoid this solution, because I still want to be able to modify one line of my table without the need of loading everything.

Thank you

Ah I think I found a solution :

I let my .cfg the same, and I make another .cfg file with all the indexes. This file will only have one line, with separators. What do you think ?

It seems io library works, so I tried to use it but I can't get to anything xD.

file = io.open("test.cfg")

Do you know what argument I should use ? (this one doesn't work)

Sorry for triple post :/

Ok this is really embarassing... Just do that :

for line in io.lines("./lua/config/test.cfg") do clientprint(cn, line) end

I hope this will help someone ^^

You do that like Park does. For now, this is the only simple solution of config file traversing in 1.3. cfg.vars(config_file_name) is coming.

Is there any solution to modify a line in a .cfg file in a O(1) complexity ? (without using cfg.setvalue)
Does the cfg.setvalue function goes through all the file until it finds the right index ?
