Hi,
As part of the VMware ESX driver I need to parse VMware VMX config
files. This files have basically the same syntax as Xen config files,
but the key part of the key=value format is allowed to contain ':' and
'.'.
The attached patch adds a flag to the virConfParser to enabled a VMX
mode for the parser to allow ':' and '.' in the key, as suggested by
Daniel P. Berrange on IRC.
ACK, looks fine to me - though I'm wondering if you might also want to
explicitly turn off support for lists ? IIIRC the VMware config values
were only scalars, so for safety you might want the parser to refuse
to parse / generate lists.
