  Description     : feature rich configuration file parser

Config::Scoped is a configuration file parser for complex
configuration files based on Parse::RecDescent. Files similar to the
ISC named or ISC dhcpd configurations are possible. In order to be
fast a precompiled grammar and optionally a config cache is used.

Config::Scoped has the following highlights as a configuration file parser:

    * Complex recursive datastructures to any extent with scalars,
      lists and hashes as elements,
    * As a subset parses any complex Perl datastructures (no
      references and globs) without do or require,
    * Include files with recursion checks,
    * Controlled macro expansion in double quoted tokens,
    * Lexically scoped parameter assignments and pragma directives,
    * Perl quote like constructs to any extent, '', "", and here docs <<,
    * Perl code evaluation in Safe compartments,
    * Caching and restore with MD5 checks to determine alterations in
      the original config files,
    * Standard macro, parameter, declaration redefinition validation,
      may be overridden to validate on semantic knowledge,
    * Standard file permission and ownership safety validation, may be
      overridden,
    * Fine control for redefiniton warnings with pragma's and other
      safety checks,
    * Easy inheritable, may be subclassed to build parsers with
      specialized validation features,
    * Condoning syntax checker, semicolons and or commas are not
      always necessary to finish a statement or a list item if the end
      can be guessed by other means like newlines, closing brackets,
      braces etc.,
    * Well spotted messages for syntax errors even within include
      files with correct line numbers and file names,
    * Exception based error handling,
