[Configobj-develop] Problem with nested lists

[Martin <mar...@gm...>]

hi there,

I'm having problems with nested lists:

>>> from configobj import ConfigObj
>>> config = ConfigObj('test.config')
>>> nested_list = [5, [2,3], 6]
>>> config['nested_list'] = nested_list
>>> config.write()

this produces
   $ tail test.config
   nested_list = 5, "[2, 3]", 6

rereading that config-file gives me this:

>>> from configobj import ConfigObj
>>> config = ConfigObj('test.config')
>>> nested_list = config['nested_list']
>>> type(nested_list)
<type 'list'>
>>> type(nested_list[1])
<type 'str'>

what am I doing wrong? any help would be appreciated!
