Before I start reinventing the wheel, is there any code out there for parsing configuration filesn in paragraph format. I am creating a multi-process monitor that will read in a configuration file that will contain the processes that they will monitor also what to do when they get get an alert. Below is an example of what I envision the configure file to look like
apache {
process=/usr/bin/httpd
processNum = 8
whenDown = "Apache is totally down"
whenDegraded = "Apache has degraded (one or more processes has gone away"
whenUp = "Apache is up"
severityDown=1
severityDegraded=3
severityUp=5
.... etc ....
}
Thanks in advance,
Tino
