Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Unicode Group: Python 2.4 Status: Closed Resolution: Wont Fix Priority: 5 Submitted By: EricL (taziup) Assigned to: M.-A. Lemburg (lemburg) Summary: BOM UTF8 not written Initial Comment: The utf8 BOM (defined in codecs) is not written to a file open with codecs.open or with codecs.EncodedFile Perhaps, the utf16 BOM is correctly written to the file. I've tested this problem on Python 2.4.3 on XP and python 2.3.5 on debian sarge I corrected this by adding the write of the BOM in the encoding.utf8.StreamWritter class but i think it's not the correct place. Enjoy. Eric ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: M.-A.

Lemburg (lemburg) Date: 2006-06-28 12:39 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=38388 We have a utf-8-sig codec in Python 2.5 that supports just this. You might want to take a look at the current Python 2.5 beta. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1513893&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
