/**
@file
The described concept provides a platform independent way to access
minimum bootstrap settings for every application by explicitly or
implicitly passing the values to the application.
<strong>MULTI-LEVEL STRATEGY FOR RETRIEVAL OF BOOTSTRAP VALUES:</strong>
The 1st level is tried first. On failure,
the next level is tried. Every query starts at the first level again, so
that one setting may be taken from the 3rd and one from the 1st level.
1st level: explicitly set variables via rtl_bootstrap_set()
2nd level: command line arguments. A `-env:SETTINGNAME=value` is given on
command line. This allows giving an application a certain setting, even
if an ini-file exists (especially useful for e.g. daemons that want to
start an executable with dynamical changing settings).
3rd level: environment variables. The application tries to get the
setting from the environment.
4th level: executable ini-file. Every application looks for an ini-file.
The filename defaults to `/absolute/path/to/executable[rc|.ini]`
without .bin or .exe suffix. The ini-filename can be
set by the special command line parameter
`-env:INIFILENAME=/absolute/path/to/inifile` at runtime or it may
be set at compile time by an API-call.
5th level: URE_BOOTSTRAP ini-file. If the bootstrap variable URE_BOOTSTRAP
expands to the URL of an ini-file, that ini-file is searched.
6th level: default. An application can have some default settings decided
at compile time, which allow the application to run even with no
deployment settings.
If neither of the above levels leads to a successful retrieval of the value
(no default possible), the application may fail to start.
<strong>NAMING CONVENTIONS</strong>
Naming conventions for names of bootstrap values:
Names may only include characters, that are allowed characters for
environment variables. This excludes '.', ' ', ';', ':' and any non-ascii
character. Names are case insensitive.
An ini-file is only allowed to have one section, which must be named
`[Bootstrap]` with the square brackets.
The section may be omitted.
The section name does not appear in the name of the corresponding
environment variable or commandline arg.
Values may be arbitrary unicode strings, they must be encoded in UTF8.
<em>Example:</em>
in an ini-file:
<code>
[Sectionname]
Name=value
</code>
as commandline arg:
<code>-env:Name=value</code>
as environment:
- <code>setenv Name value</code>
- <code>set Name=value</code>
<strong>SPECIAL VARIABLES:</strong>
- INIFILENAME<br>
This variable allows to set the inifilename. This makes only sense, if the filename
is different than the executable file name. It must be given on command line. If it is
given the executable ini-file is ignored.
