""" ConfigFile -- Interface to simple template based configuration files.

The format of these files is as follows:

globalvar = 2

[ABC]
    a = 1
    b = abc.html
    c = text with spaces

[DEF]
    a = 2
    b = a + 3
    c = a string

Entries in square brackets indicate new subsections. Global
    variables may be set prior to starting any subsection. Emtpy lines
    and lines starting with '#' (comments) are ignored. Indentation is
    not necessary; lines can start at any column.

Entries may span multiple lines by using '\' continuations
    at the line ends, e.g.

[Continuation]
    a = first line\
        second line

The lines are stripped of any white space before removing the
    trailing '\' and concatenating them. Comment lines are removed as
    well.

To parse these files, a template in form of a class including
    subclasses (identifying the subsections) must be given to the
    reader. This template defines which sections and attributes are
    known. All others are rejected.  A sample template for the above
    looks like this:

from mx.Misc.ConfigFile import *
    class Template(ConfigNamespace):

global = IntegerEntry()

class ABC(ConfigSection):
            a = IntegerEntry('0')
            b = StringEntry('default.html')
            c = StringEntry()

class DEF(ConfigSection):
            a = IntegerEntry('0')
            b = EvalEntry('0')
            c = StringEntry('default value')

The main class representing the global namespace of the ini file
    must have ConfigNamespace as baseclass. It may contain any number
    of ConfigSection subclasses each defining parsed attributes.

The ini file may only contain entries defined in this template.
    In case an unkown section is found, the main class is looked up
    for a ConfigSection subclass with name 'DefaultSection'. This
    section object is then taken as template for a new section
    of the given name.

The same feature is available for attributes in sections. In case
    a given attribute is not found in the templates, the section's
    'DefaultAttribute' attribute is deepcopied and the used as
    attribute template.

Needs mxTools to be installed.

        characters and spanning multiple lines)
