Category: XML Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Samuel Bayer (sambayer) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: xml.sax.expatreader doesn't pass encoding to ParserCreate Initial Comment: The ParserCreate function in the expat module accepts an encoding argument, presumably for use when the encoding is not provided in the XML document. This function is invoked by the reset() method of the ExpatParser class in xml.sax.expatreader. The encoding, if provided, is available from the InputSource object stored in the self._source variable, but the value is not passed along to ParserCreate. This bug is present in Python 2.4.1. I believe the correct fix is to change lines 246 and 247 in Lib/xml/ sax/expatreader.py from self._parser = expat.ParserCreate(None, " ", intern=self._interning) to self._parser = expat.ParserCreate(self._source.getEncoding (), " ", intern=self._interning) and line 252 from self._parser = expat.ParserCreate(intern = self._interning) to self._parser = expat.ParserCreate(self._source.getEncoding (), intern = self._interning) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1281032&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
