R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment: This isn't a problem with ConfigParser, it's a problem with the text file object returned by Subprocess. You can reproduce the bug by trying to iterate over the TextIOWrapper returned by subprocess.
(It is true, however, that the ConfigParser docs should be specific that it isn't "any file", but "any text file". If you would like to open a separate issue about that, that would be great). ---------- nosy: +gregory.p.smith, haypo, lukasz.langa, pitrou, r.david.murray stage: -> needs patch title: configparser can't read_file the output of subprocess.Popen -> text files returned by subprocess.Popen with universal_newlines=True are not iterable type: -> behavior versions: +Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12591> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
