Reading config.ini in PythonWin.

[Vesa Leppanen]

Hi,

I am new in python-list and quite new in Python programming as well. I
am working mainly with GIS and using Esri's geoprocessing tools.

I want to use .ini file to set the parameters, especially paths, in my
project. PythonWin 2.1. is my version.

Why do I get the default back in the case below? Any way around?

The Paths,Temp is c:/temp.

>>win32ui.SetPr ofileFileName(' D:\\config.ini' )
>>Temp = win32ui.GetProf ileVal('Paths', 'Temp','c:/')
>>print Temp

c:/

>>>

I saw one old thread but didn't se any solution there.

Already reported as a bug:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index...70&atid=105470

I'd suggest using ConfigParser, if possible, rather than the win32ui

Just don't use defaults to be safe...
