Preserve case in ConfigParser?
The documentation is confusing. What they mean is this:
import ConfigParser, osdef get_config(): config = ConfigParser.ConfigParser() config.optionxform=str try: config.read(os.path.expanduser('~/.myrc')) return config except Exception, e: log.error(e)c = get_config() print c.options('rules')I.e. override optionxform, instead of calling it; overriding can be done in a subclass or in the instance. When overriding, set it to a function (rather than the result of calling a function).
I have now reported this as a bug, and it has since been fixed.
For me worked to set optionxform immediately after creating the object
config = ConfigParser.RawConfigParser()config.optionxform = str
Add to your code:
config.optionxform = lambda option: option # preserve case for letters
