Java library for reading Apache httpd configuration files (same as Perl's Config::General)

Question

Is there a Java library that reads configuration files like those pseudo-XML used by Apache Http? Example:

some_variable true

<myconf>
    order   Cache1
    order   Cache2

    <Cache>
        can_search  yes
        can_count   yes
    </Cache>

    <Cache2>
        can_search  yes
        can_count   yes
    </Cache2>
</myconf>

<details>

    host    192.168.10.1
    port    222

</details>

Basically is there a Java replacement for Perl module Config::General? I need only to read the files, writing is not necessary.

I have been looking for something like this for my HTTPD java Web Application Administration as well! — yannisf, May 23 '11 at 09:59

I finally created my own library for this.

According to another question posted on SO, no Java library exists for the Apache configuration files.
