INI_* are just top-level encapsulation for GetIniKey.

Could you please explain that? I don't see any relation between these two things. (Maybe I'm just blind Smile

Well, there is something like key=value type of configuration file which we want to support. We want to support reading such files and obtaining values for specific keys. Hence GetIniKey.

On higher level, we would like framework to perhaps take care about some of these values - parse the Value for appropriate type, store into global variable. That is INI_* stuff.

How about this:

void ReloadIniFile()
{
	s_ini_loaded = false;
}

void SetIniFile(const char *name) {
	Mutex::Lock __(sMtx);
	strcpy(sIniFile, name);
	ReloadIniFile();
}

Ok, that would work too Smile

Unfortunately, it is not that simple - we are using ONCELOCK_(loaded) in Ini variables, will need some more adjusting (as would need your version).
