This is by design.
As you said, whitespace is not so well defined.
Torsten, if you can, maybe switch to JSON files for config setting
instead. I have had fantastic success with JSON files in such a way. If
it doesn't yet exist (it probably does), one could write a API wrapper
(think Adapter design pattern) giving JSON files the same or very
similar interface to TINIFile - it could be handy for a transition period.
You ask, we deliver. Revision 36913, package fcl-json.
Unit jsonini.pp contains TJSONIniFile. It is a descendent of TCustomIniFile.
Class method TJSONIniFile.ConvertIni will convert an .ini file to a .json file.
It attempts to use native types when possible.
ini2json example program included.
One item scratched off my long TODO list ;)
Michael.
