Zend 1.10: read custom data from application.ini

hello all,

i would like to put some custome data in application.ini, then read them from zend controller, how do i let it work?

for example, i put

username = root
password = psw

in application.ini, they should be readed when user login.

any suggestion would be appericate.

thanks,

wantime

ps. as i understand so far, it should be possible to wirte them in Registry or Namespace when bootstrap is loaded, then i just need to read them from Registry or Namespace  later.
but i don't know how the codes look like.
