Senthil Kumaran <sent...@uthcode.com> added the comment: Hello Bernhard,
I tried to a POST of JPEG file, through urllib2 (which internally uses httplib) and goes through the code that you pointed out and I don't face any problem. I am able to POST binaries using httplib. I am also surprised at UnicodeDecodeError which is being raised. The POST data is string (8-bit strings) in Python2.7 and the portion of code will have no problem in creating the content. You will get UnicodeDecodeError, only if you explicitly pass a Unicode Object as Data and never when you pass string or binary string. Perhaps mechanize is doing something wrong here and sending a Unicode object. So, this really does not look like a bug to me. (Also a note on patch. The patch tries to silence the error, which is wrong thing to do). If you can provide a simple snippet to reproduce this error, feel free reopen this again. I am closing this as 'works for me'. Thanks. ---------- assignee: -> orsenthil resolution: -> works for me stage: test needed -> committed/rejected status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11898> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
