Detailed Description

Parser for hierarchical configuration files.

Parses hierarchical configuration files of the following structure:

key0 value0;
...
block0 {
  key1 value1;
  ...
  subblock0 {
    key2 value2;
    ...
  }
  subblock1 {
    key3 value3;
    ...
  }
  ...
}
block1 {
  ...
}
...

The parsing result is a tree structure of ConfBlock objects and the actual key-value pairs are stored in a std::map.
