Trouble with a Ini Class

Hi all

I am trying to read 2 values from an Ini file

I am useing the class from this web page ( i can post the source if you dont want to download it)


but when i use the lines

vb Code:

IniReader ini = new IniReader(@"\\filervoca\groups\edit\public\iPass\Billpass config\billpass25.ini");                    
ini.Write("Section1", "KeyString", "PR AD CI GC MK ED FI IT HR DC UW UN");
ini.Write("Section1", "KeyTest", @"c:/test.txt");
string str = ini.ReadString("Section1", "KeyString");
string tem = ini.ReadString("Section1", "KeyTest");

And the first line (string str) works fine
the second line (string tem) Will not pick up th evalue no mater what i do

It writes the value fine
if i change the varables to match STR exactly ( Section1, KeyString) it still will not pick up a value.

If i change STR variables to the KeyTest it will pick up the correct variable


It seems like it just doesnt like being used twice
so i even went as far to delcare the class again in a diffrent section of code as INI2 and still it wont work.

any ideas

im really stuck

just as a note lines 2&3 are just for trouble shooting to show that i can write a value

they will be removed in the actuall code

Can really see why one would act different then another maybe post the code for the readString method.

VB Code:

IniFile ini = new IniFile(@"\\filervoca\groups\edit\public\iPass\Billpass config\billpass25.ini");
                    //ini.Write("Info", "Department", "PR AD CI GC MK ED FI IT HR DC UW UN");
                    //ini.Write("Section1", "KeyString", "PR AD CI GC MK ED FI IT HR DC UW UN");
                    ini.IniWriteValue("Section1", "KeyTest", @"c:/test.txt");
                    string str = ini.IniReadValue("Section1", "KeyString");
                    string tem = ini.IniReadValue("Section1", "KeyTest");
                    department = str.Split(' ');

Here is the Class

VB Code:

namespace Ini
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Create a New INI file to store or load data
    /// </summary>
    public class IniFile
    {
        public string path;
 
        [DllImport("kernel32")]
        private static extern long WritePrivateProfileString(string section,string key,string val,string filePath);
        [DllImport("kernel32")]
        private static extern int GetPrivateProfileString(string section,string key,string def,StringBuilder retVal,int size,string filePath);
 
        /// <summary>
        /// INIFile Constructor.
        /// </summary>
        /// <param name="INIPath"></param>
        public IniFile(string INIPath)
        {
            path = INIPath;
        }
        /// <summary>
        /// Write Data to the INI File
        /// </summary>
        /// <param name="Section"></param>
        /// Section name
        /// <param name="Key"></param>
        /// Key Name
        /// <param name="Value"></param>
        /// Value Name
        public void IniWriteValue(string Section,string Key,string Value)
        {
            WritePrivateProfileString(Section,Key,Value,this.path);
        }
        
        /// <summary>
        /// Read Data Value From the Ini File
        /// </summary>
        /// <param name="Section"></param>
        /// <param name="Key"></param>
        /// <param name="Path"></param>
        /// <returns></returns>
        public string IniReadValue(string Section,string Key)
        {
            StringBuilder temp = new StringBuilder(255);
            int i = GetPrivateProfileString(Section,Key,"",temp,255,this.path);
            return temp.ToString();
 
        }
    }
}
