    ====
2237
    
2238
    With list values off, ConfigObj can incorrectly unquote values. (This makes
2239
    it impossible to use listquote to handle your list values for you - for
2240
    nested lists. Not handling quotes at all would be better for this)

    ====
2244
    
2245
    A method to optionally remove uniform indentation from multiline values.

    INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES
2249
    ====================
2250
    
2251
    (I have removed a lot of needless complications - this list is probably not
2252
    conclusive, many option/attribute/method names have changed)
2253
    
2254
    Case sensitive
2255
    
2256
    The only valid divider is '='
2257
    
2258
    We've removed line continuations with '\'
2259
    
2260
    No recursive lists in values
2261
    
2262
    No empty section
2263
    
2264
    No distinction between flatfiles and non flatfiles
2265
    
2266
    Change in list syntax - use commas to indicate list, not parentheses
2267
    (square brackets and parentheses are no longer recognised as lists)
2268
    
2269
    ';' is no longer valid for comments and no multiline comments
2270
    
2271
    No attribute access
2272
    
2273
    We don't allow empty values - have to use '' or ""
2274
    
2275
    In ConfigObj 3 - setting a non-flatfile member to ``None`` would
2276
    initialise it as an empty section.
2277
    
2278
    The escape entities '&mjf-lf;' and '&mjf-quot;' have gone
2279
    replaced by triple quote, multiple line values.
2280
    
2281
    The ``newline``, ``force_return``, and ``default`` options have gone
2282
    
2283
    The ``encoding`` and ``backup_encoding`` methods have gone - replaced
2284
    with the ``encode`` and ``decode`` methods.
2285
    
2286
    ``fileerror`` and ``createempty`` options have become ``file_error`` and
2287
    ``create_empty``
2288
    
2289
    Partial configspecs (for specifying the order members should be written
2290
    out and which should be present) have gone. The configspec is no longer
2291
    used to specify order for the ``write`` method.
2292
    
2293
    Exceeding the maximum depth of recursion in string interpolation now
2294
    raises an error ``InterpolationDepthError``.
2295
    
2296
    Specifying a value for interpolation which doesn't exist now raises an
2297
    error ``MissingInterpolationOption`` (instead of merely being ignored).
2298
    
2299
    The ``writein`` method has been removed.
2300
    
2301
    The comments attribute is now a list (``inline_comments`` equates to the

    ISSUES
2305
    ======
2306
    
2307
    You can't have a keyword with the same name as a section (in the same
2308
    section). They are both dictionary keys - so they would overlap.
2309
    
2310
    Interpolation checks first the 'DEFAULT' subsection of the current
2311
    section, next it checks the 'DEFAULT' section of the parent section,
2312
    last it checks the 'DEFAULT' section of the main section.
2313
    
2314
    Logically a 'DEFAULT' section should apply to all subsections of the *same
2315
    parent* - this means that checking the 'DEFAULT' subsection in the
2316
    *current section* is not necessarily logical ?
2317
    
2318
    In order to simplify unicode support (which is possibly of limited value
2319
    in a config file) I have removed automatic support and added the
2320
    ``encode`` and ``decode methods, which can be used to transform keys and
2321
    entries. Because the regex looks for specific values on inital parsing
2322
    (i.e. the quotes and the equals signs) it can only read ascii compatible
2323
    encodings. For unicode use ``UTF8``, which is ASCII compatible.
2324
    
2325
    Does it matter that we don't support the ':' divider, which is supported
2326
    by ``ConfigParser`` ?
2327
    
2328
    Following error with "list_values=False" : ::
2329
    
2330
        >>> a = ["a='hello', 'goodbye'"]
2331
        >>>
2332
        >>> c(a, list_values=False)
2333
        {'a': "hello', 'goodbye"}
2334
    
2335
    The regular expression correctly removes the value -
2336
    ``"'hello', 'goodbye'"`` and then unquote just removes the front and
2337
    back quotes (called from ``_handle_value``). What should we do ??
2338
    (*ought* to raise exception because it's an invalid value if lists are
2339
    off *sigh*. This is not what you want if you want to do your own list
2340
    processing - would be *better* in this case not to unquote.)
2341
    
2342
    String interpolation and validation don't play well together. When
2343
    validation changes type it sets the value. This will correctly fetch the
2344
    value using interpolation - but then overwrite the interpolation reference.
2345
    If the value is unchanged by validation (it's a string) - but other types
2346
    will be.
2347
    
2348
    List Value Syntax
2349
    =================
2350
    
2351
    List values allow you to specify multiple values for a keyword. This
2352
    maps to a list as the resulting Python object when parsed.
2353
    
2354
    The syntax for lists is easy. A list is a comma separated set of values.
2355
    If these values contain quotes, the hash mark, or commas, then the values
2356
    can be surrounded by quotes. e.g. : ::
2357
    
2358
        keyword = value1, 'value 2', "value 3"
2359
    
2360
    If a value needs to be a list, but only has one member, then you indicate
2361
    this with a trailing comma. e.g. : ::
2362
    
2363
        keyword = "single value",
2364
    
2365
    If a value needs to be a list, but it has no members, then you indicate
2366
    this with a single comma. e.g. : ::
2367
    
2368
        keyword = ,     # an empty list
2369
    
2370
    Using triple quotes it will be possible for single values to contain
2371
    newlines and *both* single quotes and double quotes. Triple quotes aren't
2372
    allowed in list values. This means that the members of list values can't
2373
    contain carriage returns (or line feeds :-) or both quote values.
2374

    2005/09/16
2385
    ----------

    a reference to the new section.
2389
    
2390
    2005/09/09
2391

    ----------
2417
    
2418
    Interpolation is switched off before writing out files.
2419
    
2420
    Fixed bug in handling ``StringIO`` instances. (Thanks to report from
2421
    "Gustavo Niemeyer" <gustavo@niemeyer.net>)
2422
    
2423

2438
    a value to None raises an error.
