configparser Description

Brings the updated configparser from Python 3.2+ to Python 2.5-2.7 The ancient ConfigParser module available in the standard library 2.x has seen a major update in Python 3.2. configparser is a backport of those changes so that they can be used directly in Python 2.5 - 2.7.To use configparser instead of ConfigParser, simply replace:import ConfigParserwith:import configparserFor detailed documentation consult the vanilla version at http://docs.python.org/py3k/library/configparser.html.VersioningThis backport is intended to keep 100% compatibility with the vanilla release in Python 3.2+. To help maintaining a version you want and expect, a versioning scheme is used where:- the first three numbers indicate the version of Python 3.x from which the backport is done- a backport release number is provided after the r letterFor example, 3.2.0r1 is the first release of configparser compatible with the library found in Python 3.2.0.A single exception from the 100% compatibility principle is that bugs fixed before releasing another minor Python 3.x.y version will be included in the backport releases done in the mean time. This rule applies to bugs only.MaintenanceThis backport is maintained on BitBucket by ?ukasz Langa, the current vanilla configparser maintainer for CPython:- configparser Mercurial repository- configparser issue tracker Requirements: · Python What's New in This Release: · proper Python 2.6 support · explicitly stated the dependency on ordereddict · numbered all formatting braces in strings · explicitly says that Python 2.5 support won't happen (too much work necessary without abstract base classes, string formatters, the io library, etc.) · some healthy advertising in the README
