R. David Murray added the comment: Unless I'm misunderstanding something, the current implementation does match the current documentation: if <buffer-size> < n, returning <buffer-size> bytes is returning "up to n". "Up to" means it could be "less than".
So you are advocating a change in behavior...but I believe there is a reason read1 is implemented the way it is, so I suspect that isn't going to happen. Probably what you want to do is change the buffer size when you open the file so that it is greater than your 'n'. ---------- nosy: +r.david.murray _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18524> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
