Mike <pyt...@amadron.com> added the comment: Sorry, I only started learning Python a couple of weeks ago. Didn't know that there was a ConfigParser module. So this would really be a feature request of ConfigParser?
Interesting you should mention Postel's Law. Being liberal about what you accept from others doesn't mean ignoring non-conformance. Jon Postel was clear that although you endeavour to continue when encountering non-conformance you should always report it, lest non-conformance propogates (sic). I can think of two ways ConfigParser could report these problems. Either you give it a callback function it can call as it encounters problems, or, after you have parsed a file you can call another function that gives a list of any problems encountered. If ConfigParser had this functionality it would then be straightforward for the logging.config.fileConfig module to send these warnings to the root logger. ---------- status: pending -> open _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6399> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
