Éric Araujo <mer...@netwok.org> added the comment: If ConfigParser is not documented first, the name “SafeConfigParser” becomes strange—safe compared to what? These names have an historical motivation and could become clearer if renamed, but I don’t know if python-dev will agree with this deprecation. Renaming a class to an existing name with different behavior can be bad.
FTR, in my head RawConfigParser is the config parser, and SafeConfigParser is another thing that I’ll maybe use one day. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6517> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
