The ConfigReader library is a set of classes which reads
directives from a configuration file. The library is
completely object oriented, and it is envisioned that
parsers for new styles of configuration files can be
easily added.
ConfigReader::Spec encapsulates a specification for
configuration directives. You can specify which
directives can be in the configuration file, aliases for
the directive, whether the directive is required or has a
default value, and how to parse the directive value.
Here's an example of how one directive might be specified:
required $spec 'HomePage', 'new URI::URL';
This defines a required directive called 'HomePage'. To
parse the value from the configuration file, the
URI::URL::new() method will be called with the string
value as its argument.
