Parsing a Java Properties file in Objective-C for iPhone

Question

I\'m looking for a way in the iPhone SDK to read in a Properties file (not the XML flavor) for example this one:

# a comment
! a comment

a = a string
b = a

Take a look at this PropertyParser

NSString *text = @"sample key = sample value";

PropertyParser *propertyParser = [[PropertyParser alloc] init];

NSMutableDictionary *keyValueMap = [propertyParser parse:text];
