Georg Brandl <ge...@python.org> added the comment: Victor: I don't see an API change here. A ValueError is raised in both cases, and error messages are not part of the API. (And BTW, you may call me Georg.)
Senthil: I'd like the documentation change to be a bit more explicit that a string is always returned. Since the string must be encoded, it would also be helpful to mention which encoding to use. The new exception message looks slightly incorrect to me: the argument can also be an iterable of bytes. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11082> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
