New submission from Bob Van Zant <b...@veznat.com>: The Apple plist format does not support None or Null values in its output. A Null value in plist is denoted by the absence of the key in the data structure.
The python plist writer generates a TypeError when a None value is encoded. This issue is to track dealing with None values. A suggestion is to have a flag on the various plist write functions and methods that will allow ignoring None values. No changes are required to the plist reader. ---------- components: Library (Lib) files: plistlib.patch keywords: patch messages: 127750 nosy: bobveznat priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: plistlib has no graceful way of handing None values type: feature request versions: Python 2.7 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file20651/plistlib.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11101> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
