Re: Substituting tokens into configuration valuesby robartes (Priest) |

Here's a naieve implementation based on a hash lookup and a regexp.
I fudged your example string a bit to more clearly illustrate the approach. Note that this is a naieve implementation - you'll have to add checking that all tokens exist (as this code does not catch typo's in the ini file) for example. Update: Renamed %values hash to %tokens. Naming a hash values is asking for a headache :). Also, I missed the part that your token values are in the ini file as well. That means that using my implementation, you would build the %tokens hash from the [general] (or whichever) part of your ini file. However, you probably should start looking at modules for this, as jenda suggests below. CU
