Category: Python Library Group: Python 2.3 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Heiko Selber (drhok) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Pickle with HIGHEST_PROTOCOL "ord() expected..." Initial Comment: A Python script that I wrote contains a tree-like data structure that cannot be unpickled when pickled with protocol==-1 (or 2). I attached the smallest example I could find. If run with pickle, the result is: Traceback (most recent call last): File "D:\src\misc\CDROM\python\pickletest.py", line 68, in ? tree=load( f ) File "C:\Python23\lib\pickle.py", line 1390, in load return Unpickler(file).load() File "C:\Python23\lib\pickle.py", line 872, in load dispatch[key](self) File "C:\Python23\lib\pickle.py", line 1189, in load_binput i = ord(self.read(1)) TypeError: ord() expected a character, but string of length 0 found But with cPickle, the result is: Traceback (most recent call last): File "D:\src\misc\CDROM\python\pickletest.py", line 68, in ? tree=load( f ) EOFError Small changes in the datastructure lead to different results: try changing the line if level<4: to if level<1: Now cPickle works, but not pickle. This happens with Python 2.3.3 and 2.3.5 on Windows XP. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1188175&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
