Yes, something changed in Python 3.3. I fixed this issue "by mistake" :-) The fix is the following commit: New changeset 3c7792ec4547 by Victor Stinner in branch 'default': Issue #12175: BufferedReader.read(-1) now calls raw.readall() if available. http://hg.python.org/cpython/rev/3c7792ec4547 It is a bug in BufferedReader, a bug or an unexpected behaviour. Before this commit (e.g. in Python 3.2.0), BufferedReader.read(-1) calls raw.read() two times for this issue: the first call returns an non empty string (the string until the first ^Z), the second call returns an empty string (the string until the second ^Z). BufferedReader.read(-1) loop ends with raw.read() returns an empty string. You can workaround this issue by calling sys.stdin.buffer.raw.readall() or sys.stdin.buffer.raw.read(-1). I chose to not port my BufferedRead.read(-1) fix (call raw.readall() if available) in Python 3.2 because it changes the behaviour, and I don't want to do that in a minor release. Is anyone in favor of changing the behaviour of BufferedRead.read(-1) in a minor release (next 2.7.3 and 3.2.2)? Or can I close the issue (the bug is already fixed in Python 3.3)? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5505> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
