This library features a fully reentrant parser and includes bindings for both the c and c++ programming languages. it runs on modern posix-compliant systems such as linux, solaris, and mac os x (darwin), as well as on microsoft windows 2000/xp and later (visual studio or mingw).

this library allows parsing, manipulating and writing structured configuration files. its main features are:
- a fully reentrant parser: multiple configurations can be parsed in
concurrent threads at the same time.
- a simple, structured configuration file format: more readable and compact
than xml and more flexible than windows' "ini" file format.
- a low-footprint implementation
- proper documentation.
this package contains the files needed in order to use libconfig in your own programs.
