R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment: Ignoring unknown options in the configuration file is analogous to ignoring unknown tags in html: it makes it easier to use the same config file with multiple versions of the logger, with older versions ignoring the options they don't understand. This is a tradeoff, and I suppose it could be argued that the tradeoff is being made in the wrong direction here. I don't use configuration files for logging myself, so I'm not a good person to render an opinion on that.
But IMO this is not a bug; changing the behavior would be a feature request. ---------- nosy: +r.david.murray, vsajip priority: -> low type: behavior -> feature request _______________________________________ 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
