Hi There,
I used configparser.ConfigParser.write() to update a config file.
And I found that my config wa duplicated.
The file was opened with mode 'r+'
I figured out that write (I mean the write method of configparser) writes at actual file position.
I issued a file.seek(0) command before write and the result was good.
So I think documentaion should advice to user to reopen the file with mode 'w' or to issue a file.seek(0) command before using the ConfigParser.write()
I used the following python version on windows:
Python 3.5.1 (v3.5.1:37a07cee5969, Dec 6 2015, 01:38:48) [MSC v.1900 32 bit (Intel)] on win32
affected documentation:
https://docs.python.org/3.5/library/configparser.html#configparser.ConfigParser.write
Best Regards,
