.ini question

Kit · February 7, 2015

Right, call this a bit of a daft one but I've never actually messed with .ini files all that much beyond the real basics.

Suppose I have an option in my array like below:

[POLICE CARS]

Models = police,police2,police3

How would I load those models into an array? Neither GetValueString() nor GetValueModel appear to have methods for directly translating into arrays - would I have to create a function that essentially translates the entire string into smaller strings?

EDIT: Oh hah ignore me, completely forgot about the String.Split method...

All solved?

String.Split() is for sure the best way. A classic method is to cycle through a string, search for a given separator and, using positions of founded separator(s) copying shorter strings into an array. That's an overkill in times of libraries and stuff like that.
