New submission from Brian Merrell <br...@merrells.org>:
The following works on Win7x64 Python 2.6.5 and breaks on Ubuntu
10.04x64-2.6.5. This raises three issues:
1) Shouldn't anything generated by json.dumps be parsed by json.loads?
2) It appears this is an invalid unicode character. Shouldn't this be caught
by decode("utf8")
3) Why does Windows raise no issue with this and Linux does?
import json
unicode_bytes = '\xed\xa8\x80'
unicode_string = unicode_bytes.decode("utf8")
json_encoded = json.dumps("my_key":unicode_string)
json.loads(json_encoded)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
