SYNOPSIS
#include <your-opts.h>
cc [...] -o outfile infile.c -lopts [...]
const tOptionValue * configFileLoad(char const * fname);
DESCRIPTION
This routine will load a named configuration file and parse the text as
a hierarchically valued option. The option descriptor created from an
option definition file is not used via this interface. The returned
value is "named" with the input file name and is of type
"OPARG_TYPE_HIERARCHY". It may be used in calls to optionGetValue(),
optionNextValue() and optionUnloadNested().
fname the file to load
RETURN VALUE
An allocated, compound value structure
ERRORS
If the file cannot be loaded or processed, NULL is returned and errno
is set. It may be set by a call to either open(2) mmap(2) or other
file system calls, or it may be:
ENOENT - the file was not found.
ENOMSG - the file was empty.
EINVAL - the file contents are invalid -- not properly formed.
ENOMEM - not enough memory to allocate the needed structures. @end
