Hello,  
  
Load variables from ini fail when ini file is large. It seems that ini file is truncated when parsed.  
  
regards

Hello,  
The problem is not when the ini file is too long but when a value is too long.  
When a value is too long it is truncated.

The issue is a fixed size buffer in Delphi’s TIniFile class. I have replaced it with one that handles this better.
