New submission from Joshua Haas: Originally reported at http://bugs.python.org/issue27762 as a behavior bug but was determined to be won't fix. Thus I think this needs to be mentioned in the documentation at https://docs.python.org/2/library/configparser.html
I propose that directly after the following: "(For backwards compatibility, only ; starts an inline comment, while # does not.)" be added: "Inline comments will not be recognised in lines that contain ; before the comment itself. To ensure that inline comments work as expected, do not use ; in config values." ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 273306 nosy: docs@python, jahschwa priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: update ConfigParser docs regarding in-line comments type: enhancement versions: Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27824> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
