Well, using the INI format would have the advantage of having the parser ready already. It feels a bit backwards to me to configure the INI parser with another file format. What about having the allowed options per section, like this? [allowed_options] section = domain apply_if_exists = id_provider; ad apply_if_exists = ldap_id_mapping; false apply_contraint = all option = value option = value option = value > > The abilities of the rules can be further > extended by adding new attributes with special > meaning (see the design). > > Lukas could you also describe the idea you told > me with the hooks in C?
