下面是我自己的版本，使用正则表达式。这段代码假设每个节名都是唯一的——如果不是这样的话——用List替换Dictionary是有意义的。此函数支持.ini文件注释，从';'字符开始。Section正常启动[Section]，键值对也正常出现“key = value”。与节相同的假设-键名是唯一的。

/// <summary>
/// Loads .ini file into dictionary.
/// </summary>
public static Dictionary<String, Dictionary<String, String>> loadIni(String file)
{
    Dictionary<String, Dictionary<String, String>> d = new Dictionary<string, Dictionary<string, string>>();

    String ini = File.ReadAllText(file);

    // Remove comments, preserve linefeeds, if end-user needs to count line number.
    ini = Regex.Replace(ini, @"^\s*;.*$", "", RegexOptions.Multiline);

    // Pick up all lines from first section to another section
    foreach (Match m in Regex.Matches(ini, "(^|[\r\n])\\[([^\r\n]*)\\][\r\n]+(.*?)(\\[([^\r\n]*)\\][\r\n]+|$)", RegexOptions.Singleline))
    {
        String sectionName = m.Groups[2].Value;
        Dictionary<String, String> lines = new Dictionary<String, String>();

        // Pick up "key = value" kind of syntax.
        foreach (Match l in Regex.Matches(ini, @"^\s*(.*?)\s*=\s*(.*?)\s*$", RegexOptions.Multiline))
        {
            String key = l.Groups[1].Value;
            String value = l.Groups[2].Value;

            // Open up quotation if any.
            value = Regex.Replace(value, "^\"(.*)\"$", "$1");

            if (!lines.ContainsKey(key))
                lines[key] = value;
        }

        if (!d.ContainsKey(sectionName))
            d[sectionName] = lines;
    }

    return d;
}

我想介绍一个完全用c#创建的IniParser库，所以它不包含任何操作系统的依赖关系，这使得它与Mono兼容。MIT许可的开源软件——所以它可以在任何代码中使用。

你可以在GitHub中查看源代码，它也可以作为NuGet包使用

它是高度可配置的，使用起来非常简单。

很抱歉我不要脸的插播，但我希望它能对那些重新审视这个答案的人有所帮助。

如果你只是想要一个简单的阅读器没有部分和任何其他dll这里是一个简单的解决方案:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.IO;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

namespace Tool
{
    public class Config
    {
        Dictionary <string, string> values;
        public Config (string path)
        {
            values = File.ReadLines(path)
            .Where(line => (!String.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(line) && !line.StartsWith("#")))
            .Select(line => line.Split(new char[] { '=' }, 2, 0))
            .ToDictionary(parts => parts[0].Trim(), parts => parts.Length>1?parts[1].Trim():null);
        }
        public string Value (string name, string value=null)
        {
            if (values!=null && values.ContainsKey(name))
            {
                return values[name];
            }
            return value;
        }
    }
}

使用示例:

    file = new Tool.Config (Path.GetDirectoryName(System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location) + "\\config.ini");
    command = file.Value ("command");
    action = file.Value ("action");
    string value;
    //second parameter is default value if no key found with this name
    value = file.Value("debug","true");
    this.debug = (value.ToLower()=="true" || value== "1");
    value = file.Value("plain", "false");
    this.plain = (value.ToLower() == "true" || value == "1");

配置文件内容同时(如你所见，支持#符号的行注释):

#command to run
command = php

#default script
action = index.php

#debug mode
#debug = true

#plain text mode
#plain = false

#icon = favico.ico

CodeProject的这篇文章“一个使用c#的INI文件处理类”应该会有所帮助。

作者创建了一个c#类“Ini”，它公开了KERNEL32.dll中的两个函数。这些函数是:WritePrivateProfileString和GetPrivateProfileString。您需要两个命名空间:System.Runtime.InteropServices和System.Text。

使用Ini类的步骤

在项目名称空间定义中添加

using INI;

像这样创建一个INIFile

INIFile ini = new INIFile("C:\\test.ini");

使用IniWriteValue向section中的特定键写入新值，或使用IniReadValue从特定section中的键读取值。

注意:如果你是从头开始，你可以阅读这篇MSDN文章:如何:将应用程序配置文件添加到c#项目。这是配置应用程序的一种更好的方式。

如果你不需要铃铛和口哨(即部分)，这里有一个班轮:

List<(string, string)> ini = File.ReadLines(filename)
  .Select(s => {
     var spl = s.Split('=', 2);
     return spl.Length == 2 ? (spl[0], spl[1]) : (s, "");
   })
   .Select(vt => (vt.Item1.Trim(), vt.Item2.Trim()))
   .Where(vt => vt.Item1 != "")
   .ToList();

写:

File.WriteAllLines(filename, ini.Select(vt => $"{vt.Item1}={vt.Item2}"));

(如果你不关心重复，使用.ToDictionary()而不是.ToList()更容易访问)

我发现了这个简单的实现:

http://bytes.com/topic/net/insights/797169-reading-parsing-ini-file-c

能满足我的需要。

下面是如何使用它:

public class TestParser
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        IniParser parser = new IniParser(@"C:\test.ini");

        String newMessage;

        newMessage = parser.GetSetting("appsettings", "msgpart1");
        newMessage += parser.GetSetting("appsettings", "msgpart2");
        newMessage += parser.GetSetting("punctuation", "ex");

        //Returns "Hello World!"
        Console.WriteLine(newMessage);
        Console.ReadLine();
    }
}

代码如下:

using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Collections;

public class IniParser
{
    private Hashtable keyPairs = new Hashtable();
    private String iniFilePath;

    private struct SectionPair
    {
        public String Section;
        public String Key;
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Opens the INI file at the given path and enumerates the values in the IniParser.
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="iniPath">Full path to INI file.</param>
    public IniParser(String iniPath)
    {
        TextReader iniFile = null;
        String strLine = null;
        String currentRoot = null;
        String[] keyPair = null;

        iniFilePath = iniPath;

        if (File.Exists(iniPath))
        {
            try
            {
                iniFile = new StreamReader(iniPath);

                strLine = iniFile.ReadLine();

                while (strLine != null)
                {
                    strLine = strLine.Trim().ToUpper();

                    if (strLine != "")
                    {
                        if (strLine.StartsWith("[") && strLine.EndsWith("]"))
                        {
                            currentRoot = strLine.Substring(1, strLine.Length - 2);
                        }
                        else
                        {
                            keyPair = strLine.Split(new char[] { '=' }, 2);

                            SectionPair sectionPair;
                            String value = null;

                            if (currentRoot == null)
                                currentRoot = "ROOT";

                            sectionPair.Section = currentRoot;
                            sectionPair.Key = keyPair[0];

                            if (keyPair.Length > 1)
                                value = keyPair[1];

                            keyPairs.Add(sectionPair, value);
                        }
                    }

                    strLine = iniFile.ReadLine();
                }

            }
            catch (Exception ex)
