Thanks to all - Just to give a positive feed back.
The following solution works for me:
from xml.etree.ElementTree import ElementTree
tree = ElementTree()
tree.parse('inifile.xml')
dicIni = dict((child.tag, child.text) for child in tree.getroot().getchildren())

Subject: reading xml from python
I'm looking for at way to read (and later write) small simple .xml file from
Python.
e.g. I would like to read the following from a small ini.xml file into a
dictionary.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<initialisation>
<idrectory>default</idrectory>
<nosplit>False</nosplit>
<nobatch>False</nobatch>
<ubmmode>UBMlight</ubmmode>
<overwrite_output>True</overwrite_output>
</initialisation>
I would prefer a relative simple (not too much creating new classes) way to do
this.
Any suggestions appreciated.
:-) Martin
