I'm still reading some of the links in the other thread, but what would you say is the comparative advantage of using INI over XML?
One of the things I like about the Flatten/Unflatten from XML is that all my variables are strongly typed in the robot, and I can reuse common names for things like PID gains since their parent typdef has a unique name. In addition, any changes I make to the typedefs themselves are transparent to the flattening process, so I don't need to make additional code changes.
Are there similar benefits when using INI?
