[PHP] parse_ini_file VS. constructor with many parameters

[Jason Barnett]

I have a class definition that has a lot of private properties.  These 
properties don't need to change often, in fact a user could probably 
just change the values once and forget about most of them.  So this 
makes me think that I should use parse_ini_file and a configuration file 
to let users "set and forget".  But is this something the average PHPer 
would easily understand?  Would it be better to just have all those 
options be parameters in the class constructor (with default values)?

Any other suggestions are of course welcome.
