Save to import the app inside the default config?

From:: Oliver Andrich

Hi,

I am asking myself, if it is save to import the app project inside the
default configuration file, which is imported
by app.config.from_object('foobar.default_config'). It would be handy, cause
I like to use the app.root_path inside the config for some reasonable
filesystem defaults. It would be easy to find out myself using the os
module, but Flask already does that...

Can anybody help me on this question?

Best regards,
Oliver Andrich

It should be save if you are using the latest Werkzeug development 
version.  Before that, probably not.

Thanks for the information. I am currently using 0.6.2. So, I think I will
take the save road for the moment and discover the path myself using the os
module.
