Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: logistix (logistix) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: StringIO and cStringIO don't provide 'name' attribute Initial Comment: Documentation explicitly states that file-like objects should return a repr-style psuedoname. Patch is attached. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Just van Rossum (jvr) Date: 2005-04-07 10:54 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=92689 The documentation also says "This is a read-only attribute and may not be present on all file-like objects.", so I'm inclined to close as "won't fix". I'm sure many in-the-wild file-like objects don't support it, either, so depending on its existence is bad style at best. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1175967&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
