New submission from Руслан Ижбулатов: If a class implements both __index__() and __bytes__(), the built-in bytes() constructor uses __index__() in place of __bytes__(), including the assumption that __index__() returns a bytes object.
Attaching a simple example (leads to overflow when big integer is casted to bytes). ---------- components: None files: testb.py messages: 177725 nosy: LRN priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: __index__() overrides __bytes__() when bytes() is called versions: Python 3.3 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file28357/testb.py _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16722> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
