If you don't want to rely on third party libraries, and want a human-readable format I'll suggest using csv file format : and this way ? In [47]: class Z(object) : ....: def __init__(self, val) : self.val = val ....: ....: In [48]: lst = [Z(i) for i in range(2) + [ str(e) for e in range(2) ] ] In [49]: [ (e, e.val) for e in lst ] Out[49]: [(<__main__.Z object at 0xa76c252c>, 0), (<__main__.Z object at 0xa76c27ac>, 1), (<__main__.Z object at 0xa76c23ac>, '0'), (<__main__.Z object at 0xa76c23ec>, '1')] In [51]: csv.writer(file('config.csv', 'w')).writerows([ (type(i.val).__name__, i.val) for i in lst]) In [52]: print file('config.csv').read() int,0 int,1 str,0 str,1 In [53]: l = [ Z(eval(class_)(val)) for class_, val in csv.reader(file('config.csv')) ] In [54]: [ (e, e.val) for e in l ] Out[54]: [(<__main__.Z object at 0xa76c218c>, 0), (<__main__.Z object at 0xa76c260c>, 1), (<__main__.Z object at 0xa76c256c>, '0'), (<__main__.Z object at 0xa76c25cc>, '1')] -- _____________ Maric Michaud _____________ Aristote - www.aristote.info 3 place des tapis 69004 Lyon Tel: +33 426 880 097 -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
