Convert string lines from a .ini file to int32

Question

My program creates couple string hex numbers and saves it to a .ini file on my computer. Now I want to convert them to int32. In my .ini file the hex values are listed this way:

• 02E8ECB4
• 02E8ECB5
• 02E8ECE7
• 02E8EC98

and now I want these values in the same .ini file replaced with the new converted values, like:

• 48819380
• 48819381
• 48819431
• 48819352

That is how i save the values:

            using (StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(@"C:\values.ini", true))
            {
                foreach (string key in values.Keys)
                {
                    if (values[key] != string.Empty)
                        writer.WriteLine("{1}", key, values[key]);
                }

            }

If your concern is how to parse each of these strings and create the corresponding int for each of them you could try the following:

int val;
if(int.TryParse(str, System.Globalization.NumberStyles.HexNumber, out val))
{
    // The parsing succeeded, so you can continue with the integer you have 
    // now in val. 
}

where str is the string, for instance the "02E8ECB4".
