New submission from Nir Soffer: In http://docs.python.org/lib/message-objects.html, getheader doc say:
"Like getrawheader(name), but strip leading and trailing whitespace. Internal whitespace is not stripped. The optional default argument can be used to specify a different default to be returned when there is no header matching name." However, getheader is not like getrawheader. getheader return the *last* header seen, using the message dict. getrawheader retruns the *first* header line seen, searching through the list of parsed header lines. The text should also note that getheader is faster and the preferred way to get parsed headers. ---------- components: Documentation messages: 55254 nosy: nirs severity: normal status: open title: Wrong documentation for rfc822.Message.getheader versions: Python 2.5 __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1011> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
