Port of Go server/reload.go option interface and diffing logic. Compares
NatsOptions property-by-property to detect changes, tags each with category
flags (logging, auth, TLS, non-reloadable), validates that non-reloadable
options (Host, Port, ServerName) are not changed at runtime, and provides
MergeCliOverrides to ensure CLI flags always take precedence over config
file values during hot reload.
- Add MaxIncludeDepth = 10 constant and thread _includeDepth through ParserState
constructors, ProcessInclude, ParseFile (private overload), and ParseEnvValue
to prevent StackOverflowException from recursive includes
- Fix PopContext to check _ctxs.Count <= 1 instead of == 0 so the root context
is never popped, replacing silent crash with clear InvalidOperationException
- Add else throw in SetValue so unknown context types surface as bugs rather
than silently dropping values
Implements NatsConfParser with Parse, ParseFile, and ParseFileWithDigest
methods. Supports nested maps/arrays, variable resolution with block
scoping and environment fallback, bcrypt password literals, integer
suffix multipliers, include directives, and cycle detection.
Port the NATS configuration file lexer from Go's conf/lex.go to C#.
The lexer is a state-machine tokenizer that supports the NATS config
format: key-value pairs with =, :, or whitespace separators; nested
maps {}; arrays []; single and double quoted strings with escape
sequences; block strings (); variables $VAR; include directives;
comments (# and //); booleans; integers with size suffixes (kb, mb, gb);
floats; ISO8601 datetimes; and IP addresses.
