Can python learn from c++? Maybe sometimes. I think the design of boost::program_options is a pretty example. http://www.boost.org/regression-logs/cs-win32_metacomm/doc/html/program_options.html The basic design is split into 3 components: * Options Description * Parsers * Storage One of the benefits of this separation is that various parsers can be plugged in. The library includes 3 parsers: * Command line * ini-file * environment variables IMO, this design would be a good starting point for a python library. _______________________________________________ Python-3000 mailing list Python-3000@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-3000 Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-3000/archive%40mail-archive.com
