I've posted a distribution for ZConfig 2.1 on the ZConfig page: http://zope.org/Members/fdrake/zconfig/ This fixes a few bugs and improves the ability to set default values in schemas. It also adds some helpful schema building blocks, including a general mapping type and support for Python's logging package. This version of ZConfig requires Python 2.3.
From the news file:
- Removed compatibility with Python 2.1 and 2.2. - The default objects use for section values now provide a method getSectionAttributes(); this returns a list of all the attributes of the section object which store configuration-defined data (including information derived from the schema). - Default information can now be included in a schema for <key name="+"> and <multikey name="+"> by using <default key="...">. - More documentation has been added to discuss schema extension. - Support for a Unicode-free Python has been fixed. - Derived section types now inherit the datatype of the base type if no datatype is identified explicitly. - Derived section types can now override the keytype instead of always inheriting from their base type. - <import package='...'/> makes use of the current prefix if the package name begins witha dot. - Added two standard datatypes: dotted-name and dotted-suffix. - Added two standard schema components: ZConfig.components.basic and ZConfig.components.logger. -Fred -- Fred L.
