Category: Unicode Group: Python 2.4 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Ken Kinder (kkinder) Assigned to: M.-A. Lemburg (lemburg) Summary: urlparse "caches" parses regardless of encoding Initial Comment: The issue can be summarized with this code: >>> urlparse.urlparse(u'http://www.python.org/doc') (u'http', u'www.python.org', u'/doc', '', '', '') >>> urlparse.urlparse('http://www.python.org/doc') (u'http', u'www.python.org', u'/doc', '', '', '') Once the urlparse library has "cached" a URL, it stores the resulting value of that cache regardless of datatype. Notice that in the second use of urlparse, I passed it a STRING and got back a UNICODE object. This can be quite confusing when, as a developer, you think you've already encoded all your objects, you use urlparse, and all of a sudden you have unicode objects again, when you expected to have strings. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1313119&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
