I have an INI file which has data like this.

[username] xxxxxxxxxx

[password] xxxxxxxxxx

Now i want to extract both username and password and store them separately into a string. I tried many things, but was not able to achieve this.

Any help would be appreciated.

Your example contained no <> at all... – ThePerplexedOne Sep 27 '16 at 10:20
Actually anything typed in between <> is not being displayed. I guess it acts as an escape character. So i removed it – Goutham Ramesh Sep 27 '16 at 10:21
@Sinatr, I'm already able to read data from an INI file!!! – Goutham Ramesh Sep 27 '16 at 10:22
Then how are we supposed to know what the contents are and how you should retrieve what you need? Show us EXACTLY what it looks like. – ThePerplexedOne Sep 27 '16 at 10:23
@ThePerplexedOne, any help now! – Goutham Ramesh Sep 27 '16 at 10:28
@WiktorStribiżew the file format is not that of an INI file – Alex K. Sep 27 '16 at 10:55
