I think you are correct here. This really sounds like it could've (should've?) been implemented using the serialization library and maybe BGL or a generic tree structure (which I would love to be a Boost library).
That way you get all of the traversal mechanisms available to the tree (or graph) structure, and all of the archiving techniques available to the serialization lib.
Exactly my point.

You are correct it might (possibly) have been implemented this way. However, I'm quite sure you would need 30 lines of code, not 3 to get a value from a simple config file. And people would prefer to use MSXML or Expat instead anyway. Marcin
