Neil Schemenauer added the comment: I'm attaching v2 of my proposed patch. This one is quite a bit better, IMHO.
- Introduce __ascii__ as a special method, like __str__ but required to exist only if an ASCII-only format exists. - Extract PyString_Format from Python 2.7 and update it for PyBytes. - %c only accepts integers, not single character strs, maybe should accept length one byte objects. - add %a, should be useful for debugging - %s calls __bytes__ or __ascii__, otherwise gives a TypeError, should eventually support buffer API - number formats work as they do in Python 2. ---------- keywords: +needs review -patch Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file33505/bytes_mod_v2.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20284> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
