42.2.5 Adding
a new configuration setting on the fly
Besides overriding existing settings
in the configuration file, you can use a configuration-variable assignment
to specify a persistent override for a setting that is not even present
in your configuration file, provided both of the following are true:
- [Section] is listed
as subject to overrides in one of Table
42-2 through Table 42-6.
- Key
is a valid key for the section.
If the section is not listed, or the
key is not valid for the section, the setting you specify is treated
instead as an error, with value “0” (zero).
