Is there a C/C++ library available to parse a configuration file and get the value of different variables specified therein? I know about gnome-config. Maybe there is something similar for Qt. But I wanted to know if there was any other independent library.

There are code generators for C, which will generate code for you. May be you want to look at them.
Here is one of them. -Krishna

err. I am not looking for programs that will generate C code from some description file. I am looking for a library which will give me the value of a variable existing in a plain text configuration file. The format of the configuration file will be <variable name> = <value>
And maybe there will be sections starting with [<section name>]. Something like wvdial.conf, .muttrc, etc.
Just a thought then why not to use xml and libxml2. -Krishna
