Alexandre Vassalotti added the comment: Adding a special type is not a bad idea. We have to keep the code for loading BINSTRING opcodes anyway, so we might as well use it. It could be helpful for unit-testing our Python 2 compatibility support for pickle.
We should still fix array in 2.7 to accept unicode object for the typecode though. ---------- stage: -> needs patch versions: +Python 2.7, Python 3.4 -Python 3.2 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13566> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
