Is there a OS independent C++ implementaion of the TIniFile ?

I don't know but I doubt it. TIniFile gives access to Windows INI files
so you're asking for an Operating System independant class to access an
Operating System dependant structure.
OTOH it's a pretty simple class to write so I'm sure people have
written one for themselves (I know we did). Maybe someone has chosen to
publish their efforts. Try SourceForge.Net.

But I don't think the INI format is OS-dependent. Many unix
config files use this format. I have written a TIniFile class
which can read/write int/double/string/array/sections...
It's only 300 lines. Quite easy.

A good starting point would be to look at TMemIniFile (provided that you can
decipher the Delphi code which seemed pretty basic when I did it). I needed
a class that could load the INI data from files using a proprietory server
that was developed in house and it was quite simple. The guts of it are
based on THashedStringList so it will help if you are familiar with
TStrings, TStringList and/or THashedStringList.
