Ini file operation using combo

Need a code for getting combobox value form ini file using seperator "comma"

Explain:

I have functions those function have saved in ini file

i have colors to assing for significant function

the function can also have 1-5 colors but i need to get from ini file

Important this is we can implement only with ini file and use only binary logic

example: filename.ini

//In this no represents colors if i choose function2 means the function2 has 1,2,4(colors).So if i choose function2 it means function2 contains white,red and yellow

[Functions]

1=function1,function2,function3,function4

2=function1,function 2,function

3=function1

4=function2,function3,function4

0=function4

[Colors]

0=GENERIC

1=WHITE

2=RED

3=GREEN

4=YELLOW

GENERIC 0b0000 0x0 0

WHITE 0b0001 0x1 1

RED 0b0010 0x2 2

GREEN 0b0100 0x4 4

YELLOW 0b1000 0x8 8

I need code for this using binary logic

Anyone pls help

Here is the code:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Data;
using System.Linq;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.IO;
namespace ListColors
{
public partial class frmColors : Form
{
public frmColors()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
public List values { get; set; }
private void frmColors_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
values = INIValue.IniValues(AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory + "\\ListColors.ini");
cboColor.DataSource = GetFunctions();
}
public List GetFunctions()
{
List returnValue = new List();
List functions = values.Where(v => v.Section == "Functions").ToList();
foreach (INIValue iv in functions)
{
returnValue.AddRange(iv.Value.Split(new Char[] { ','}));
}
return returnValue.Distinct().ToList();
}
private void cboColor_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
chkWhite.Checked = HasColor("WHITE");
chkRed.Checked = HasColor("RED");
chkGreen.Checked = HasColor("GREEN");
chkYellow.Checked = HasColor("YELLOW");
chkGeneric.Checked = HasColor("GENERIC");
}
private Boolean HasColor(String color)
{
String function = cboColor.SelectedItem.ToString();
List keys = new List();
List functions = values.Where(v => v.Section == "Functions").ToList();
List colors = values.Where(v => v.Section == "Colors").ToList();
foreach (INIValue f in functions)
{
if (f.Value.IndexOf(function) != -1)
keys.Add(f.Key);
}
return keys.Exists(k => k == colors.Single(c => c.Value == color).Key);
}
}
public class INIValue
{
public String Section { get; set; }
public String Key { get; set; }
public String Value { get; set; }
public INIValue()
{
Section = Key = Value = String.Empty;
}
public INIValue(String section, String key, String value) : this()
{
Section = section;
Key = key;
Value = value;
}
public static List IniValues(String INIFilePath)
{
List returnValue = new List();
String[] lines = File.ReadAllLines(INIFilePath);
String section = String.Empty;
foreach (String line in lines)
{
if (line.StartsWith("["))
{
section = line.Replace("[", "").Replace("]", "");
continue;
}
if (line.IndexOf('=') != -1)
{
String[] keyValue = line.Split(new Char[] { '=' });
returnValue.Add(new INIValue(section, keyValue[0], keyValue[1]));
}
}
return returnValue;
}
}
}

And here is how the form looks:

You obviously will need to design the form.

Here is how the ini file looks like:
[Functions]
1=function1,function2,function3,function4
2=function1,function2,function
3=function1
4=function2,function3,function4
0=function4
[Colors]
0=GENERIC
1=WHITE
2=RED
3=GREEN
4=YELLOW
GENERIC=0b0000 0x0 0
WHITE=0b0001    0x1 1
RED=0b0010  0x2 2
GREEN=0b0100    0x4 4
YELLOW=0b1000   0x8 8
