Category: None Group: Python 2.3 >Status: Closed >Resolution: Fixed Priority: 5 Submitted By: David Abrahams (david_abrahams) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: PyUnicode_FromEncodedObject Initial Comment: There's a bug, either in the code or docs for PyUnicode_FromEncodedObject. The docs read: "Unicode objects are passed back as-is with incremented refcount. Note: These cannot be decoded; passing a non-NULL value for encoding will result in a TypeError." 'tain't so; the following shows that the error is unconditional. if (obj == NULL) { PyErr_BadInternalCall(); return NULL; } #if 0 /* For b/w compatibility we also accept Unicode objects provided that no encodings is given and then redirect to PyObject_Unicode() which then applies the additional logic for Unicode subclasses. NOTE: This API should really only be used for object which represent *encoded* Unicode ! */ if (PyUnicode_Check(obj)) { if (encoding) { PyErr_SetString(PyExc_TypeError, "decoding Unicode is not supported"); return NULL; } return PyObject_Unicode(obj); } #else if (PyUnicode_Check(obj)) { PyErr_SetString(PyExc_TypeError, "decoding Unicode is not supported"); return NULL; } #endif ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Georg Brandl (gbrandl) Date: 2006-06-14 16:46 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=849994 Fixed in rev. 46961. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=805015&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
