Category: Documentation Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Guido van Rossum (gvanrossum) >Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: cPickle documentation incomplete Initial Comment: Many of the differences between the cPickle module and the pickle module appear undocumented, despite a claim in the cPickle module that the pickle docs explain the differences. For example, I just found that cPickle.Pickler() can be called without a file argument, which makes it use an internal list to store the pickled data; and that in that case it has a method getvalue() that returns the contents of that list as a string; and that its dump() method takes a second argument which, if true, calls the getvalue() method. Who knows what else it supports. Someone should go over the cPickle source and compare the API *carefully* with the documented pickle API. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Fred L.
