Setting with empty value fails to convert to null-string
See original GitHub issueGiving following .ini-file and class:
[FOO]
SETTING=
public class FOO
{
public string? SETTING { get; set; }
}
Reading the file with 3.2.9.1, which was written with 3.2.8, and mapping the Section
object to an actual object with SetValuesTo(object)
now fails with:
SharpConfig.SettingValueCastException: Failed to convert value '' to type System.String.
at SharpConfig.Setting.CreateObjectFromString(String value, Type dstType, Boolean tryConvert)
at SharpConfig.Setting.GetValue(Type type)
at SharpConfig.Section.SetValuesTo(Object obj)
at MY CODE ^^
There is no workaround available, since the default (false
) for the tryConvert
parameter of Setting.CreateObjectFromString
is never overwritten!

Noted. Thanks for reporting these issues by the way.
Hi, and thanks for the prompt follow-up!
Mea culpa, I have a custom
string
-converter, which returnsnull
rather thanstring.Empty
which makes the following comparison fail.I’ve updated the title accordingly.
